Giri Nathan does an amazing job in bringing the information on this new era's of men's tennis. It was engaging and worked with the knowledge that I was looking for and enjoyed the overall concept of this. I thought everything flowed well together and is great it is for the sports fan.

Changeover covers the rising rivalry of men tennis next two superstar, Jannik Sinner and Carlos Alcaraz. Covering mostly the 2024 tennis season, Mr. Nathan gives you an in-depth look at both players as they become the clear successors to the “Big Three” of Novak Djokovic, Rafael Nadal, and Roger Federer.

This was an enjoyable read that has lots of great information. Mr. Nathan clearly knows tennis and his access as a tennis sportswriter gives him a number of insights that make the book very enjoyable. I do feel like the book could have been even better had he not limited himself to just the budding rivalry between Sinner and Alcaraz. He does talk about other players, but I feel like it could have been expanded more. Most players mentioned are given a page or two before moving back to Sinner and Alcaraz. I know the premise of the book was Sinner and Alcaraz, but giving additional players more time would have made the book more interesting.

It has been a while since I have read a tennis book, and Changeover did not disappoint. An excellent retelling of the 2024 Men’s Tennis Season as seen through the rivalry between the APT’s next big stars, Carlos Alcaraz and Jannik Sinner.
