Serena's Game, Set, Memoir
Sept. 16 2008, Published 6:38 a.m. ET
Tennis phenom Serena Williams definitely has a story to tell.
She's only 26 and already has nine Grand Slam tennis titles under her belt, as well as a gold medal in the women's doubles at the Beijing Olympics, so it's no wonder publishers have been fighting for the rights to release her memoir.
An editor for Grand Central Publishing announced today that in 2009 they will publish Serena's story of her rise to tennis glory.
