Book Summary

MIKATENSITY is a memoir-meets-playbook from 16-year-old tennis player Mikaeel Ali Baig—a kid born and trained in the USA who chose discipline over hype and carried Pakistan’s flag onto the world stage. From 6 a.m. courts to comeback seasons, he shares real matches, behind-the-scenes training, and the mindset that earned him Men’s Davis Cup selection at 15. Each chapter includes reflection prompts and same-day Game Plans. You’ll read honest pages on doubt, injury, culture shock, and choosing purpose over comfort—how grit, focus, and integrity turn pressure into progress. For athletes, parents, and coaches: build your routine, raise your standards, and be better than yesterday.
