Wimbledon finalist Serena Williams is coming to Mamaroneck tomorrow to play for the World TeamTennis Washington Kastles in a match against the New York Sportimes. And there is a book involved in the bit of celebrity -sports news since the heads-up comes from the publicist for “American Doubles” by Marcia Frost (Mansion Grove House ). The book features the tennis pro (and others) and will also get its moment in center court at the Sound Shore tennis extravaganza.
Serena, and several players at that match, are highlighted in the new publication whose full title is “American Doubles …the Trials …the Triumphs …the Domination.” It is by Long Island native Marcia Frost. The book will be sold at that match in Harbor Island Park and the author will do a signing event from 5:30 to 6:30 p.m. One chapter does highlight sibling pairings.
Here’s what publicist Liza Horan says about the book: ”(It) showcases Americans’ prowess on the doubles court, from the successes of Billie Jean King and Stan Smith to today’s top doubles team of Bob and Mike Bryan—both of whom made the Wimbledon Mixed Doubles final round and who are featured on the book cover.”
It seems that the Williams match is at 7:30 p.m. For information check out the Sportime site.
