Boris Becker is a former German tennis player, coach, and writer, regarded as one of the most charismatic legends of modern tennis. In 1985, at just 17 years old, he made history by becoming the youngest Wimbledon champion, a victory that propelled him to worldwide fame. Throughout his career, he won six Grand Slam titles, a Davis Cup, and an Olympic medal, standing out for his aggressive playing style, powerful volley, and unbreakable competitive spirit. After retiring, Becker has remained closely connected to tennis as a coach—most notably guiding Novak Djokovic during one of the most successful periods of his career—and as a sports commentator. He has also explored a more personal and reflective side as the author of The Player, an autobiography in which he recounts his meteoric rise, his triumphs, his setbacks, and the lessons learned both on and off the court.
