“Love me, Love game,” says twenty-three-year-old professional tennis player willy Novinsky. Tennis has been Willy's one love, until the day she meets Eric oberdorf, a giffed sportsman who took up tennis at the age of eighteen. Low-ranked but untested, Eric, too, aims to make his mark on the imternational tennis circuit.
They marry and life together begins well, but animated shoptalk and blissful love-making soon give way to full-tilt competition over who can rise to the top first. Driven and gifted, Willy maintains the lead until she tears her knee ligaments in a devastating fall.
