Too Good: The Scott Draper Story by Scott Draper

Scott Draper's journey to success is one of hard work, grit, and determination. Growing up in the small town of Maryborough, Australia, Draper had dreams of becoming a professional tennis player. Despite coming from a poor family and having no natural talent for the game, he worked hard and never gave up on his goal. After years of grinding and relentless practice, he eventually reached the top of the professional circuit and went on to win five singles titles and two grand slams.

Today, Draper is more famously remembered not just for his successful career on the court, but also for his unparalleled resilience and internal motivation. Today, he has become an inspirational figure for aspiring athletes, businesspeople, entrepreneurs and everyone looking to make a success of themselves regardless of the odds.

His story begins in his hometown of Maryborough. At just five years old, Scott picked up his first racquet and developed a deep love for the game of tennis. He would often spend hours upon hours on the courts alone, perfecting his strokes and becoming better at the sport.

He was never the most naturally gifted player, but thanks to his dedication and practice, he was able to make great strides in his game. Draper ultimately became the top ranked player for Queensland, winning several local tournaments and ranking third nationally in singles.

Despite his impressive ability, Draper's ultimate ambition of becoming a professional tennis player seemed too far away in Australia. To give himself a better chance of making it big, Draper moved to the United States in 1995. The big step paid off, as he soon found himself ranked among the top 100 professional tennis players.

In 2001, Draper reached the peak of his career, winning five titles and two grand slams. His victories helped to give him reasons to keep on going and pushed him to break new heights in his game.

In 2003, Draper announced his retirement and shifted his focus to the business world. He has since gone on to co-found and manage successful venture capital companies and business development subsidiaries, emphasizing his determination and commitment to success.

In the book Too Good: The Scott Draper Story, Draper uses his own life story to demonstrate that anything is possible if you set your mind to it. He has become a beacon of hope for people who come from disadvantaged backgrounds. His story is a testament to the fact that no matter where you come from, or the obstacles you need to overcome, you can always build something great and be successful.

Too Good: The Scott Draper Story is a must-read for anyone looking for inspiration and motivation to get back up after a set-back.
