I want to be a CHAMPION...: A Champion's letter to kids with a dream (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9780692611333)

Sunny Hale is the first woman in history to win the US Open Polo Championships, the author of 5 books, an inspirational speaker and a National Cowgirl Hall of Fame inductee along the likes of Sandra Day O'Connor, Patsy Cline and Georgia O'Keefe. The US Open Polo Championships is American Polo's most coveted trophy and title. What sets Sunny apart from the pack in the sport of Polo is the fact that she was hired to play for over 20 seasons, in the Sport of Kings (a predominately male dominated profession at the top) alongside some of the greatest players of all time, as a professional among them. With no template to follow she not only achieved her dream, in what has been called the second most dangerous sport only to auto racing, but she amassed one of the most impressive winning records and literally changed history forever in the process. She has been featured in mainstream magazines and media all over the world for her accomplishments and her character of a true champion. She has competed in 11 countries including the first Ladies International Tournament in Dubai UAE under the patronage of Sheika Maitha al Maktoum. ESPNW compares her accomplishment as "some say she's pulled off the equivalent of being the first woman to earn a World Series Ring." The New York Times called Sunny "the most famous female polo player in the world." To learn more about Sunny Hale go to: www.sunnyhalepolo.com
