James Riley Blake (born December 28, 1979 in Yonkers, New York, United States) is a professional tennis player and currently the second-highest ranked American, 17th in the world. Blake is known for his speed and powerful, flat forehand. He reached the final of the 2006 Tennis Masters Cup but lost to the then World No. 1 Roger Federer in straight sets. On July 3, 2007, Blake's book, Breaking Back: How I Lost Everything and Won Back My Life, discussing his comeback after his unlucky 2004 season, was released and debuted at Number 22 on the New York Times Best Seller list. He wrote this book along with Andrew Friedman.
