...make any aspiring U.S. Davis Cupper shudder. Hopman runs his team like a Marine sergeant bossing the brig. He puts his players through punishing four-hour practice sessions, fills their spare-time hours with such joys as cross-country runs and weight lifting. With younger players, he dictates menus, bedtimes, social activities. "Don't forget," Hopman explains, "these boys are in their late teens. They need guidance...
