I'm currently working on sport biography after quite a long career break. Once I've put the kids to bed I have been trying to catch up on as many sports biographies as I can at the moment for research and benchmarking purposes, and I'd be really grateful if any of you could recommend any sporting biographies or autobiographies that you've really enjoyed in the past couple of years so I can try and narrow my list a bit!

Many thanks...

Are ones I can remember enjoying, have read loads of footballers but none stick out so guess they can't have been that good!

These are great - thanks. John McEnroe's is next on my hit list, funnily enough.

Any more suggestions out there would be gratefully received!
