Calling The Shots. My Autobiography

Rewind to 1971, and Sue Barker's coach is sending his 15-year-old tennis protégée to a junior championship in France, alone, with a one-way ticket, telling her she'll have to win the money to pay for her return fare. Sue hides in the grounds of the hosting tennis club overnight, to avoid paying for a hotel. The next day, she walks onto court and smashes it. Five years later, and she's Britain's No 1.

The same combination of grit, grace and talent took her to the top of live Sports TV. And now, after four decades on camera encouraging other legends to share their stories, she is telling her own.

Going all in for her once-only autobiography, Sue takes us inside the showbizzy world of 70s and early 80s tennis. She reveals the battles she fought for hard-won success in two careers and gives us a ringside seat on the nation's biggest sporting dramas, and a fascinating insider's understanding of competitors under pressure.

This is the remarkable life story of a tennis champion, an award-winning broadcaster who has brought sporting history into our living rooms for decades, and a trail-blazing woman who has always called the shots.

A great read for anyone looking to upset the world!!
Format: Hardcover
Tim does a great job simplifying our mandate from God as believers in this book. His ability to articulate and expound on the command given in Matthew 16, to go unto the world, is biblically based content. I recommend this book because it’s a testament of the work of Christ in Tim’s life, and Embassy City Church. Thank you for obeying the Spirit when writing this book, Tim.

Thank you for this call to action!
Format: Hardcover
I finally received my copy today and haven't put it down. This book is well written, engaging, and practical. It's a simple read with a powerful message. It's easy to understand no matter where you are in your journey or what your denomination. I didn't realize I was already an upsetter in training!

Inspiration
This book was very inspirational and informative. Tim Ross' writing style was conversational and made the book Ann easy read. It answered questions I had about evangelism and inspired me to want to be Ann Upsetters.

I'm upset! ..and now I'm an upsetter!
What a powerful evangelism tool. Very well written and full of thought-provoking clarity. As I read, it was almost as if the stories were a mirror reading me. This book has inspired me to start a study group with young adults to inspire them to become upsetters as well. I want this message to be contagious! Blessings!!
