Wertheim joined SI in 1996 and quickly became one of the magazine’s most authoritative voices on tennis, the NBA, sports business, law and social issues. As a chief investigative reporter for the franchise, Wertheim has explored a wide range of subjects, from high school hazing to performance-enhancing drugs and steroids in sports. His weekly Tennis Mailbag on SI.com is considered a must read among tennis aficionados. He is a frequent guest lecturer on sports business and media.
He is the author of seven highly praised books: Strokes of Genius: Federer, Nadal, and the Greatest Match Ever Played (2009, Houghton Mifflin Harcourt); Blood in the Cage: Mixed Martial Arts, Pat Miletich, and the Furious Rise of the UFC (2009, Houghton Mifflin Harcourt); Running the Table: The Legend of Kid Delicious, the Last Great American Pool Hustler (2008, Houghton Mifflin Harcourt); Transition Game: How Hoosiers Went Hip-Hop (2006, Riverhead Trade); Venus Envy: A Sensational Season Inside the Women’s Tennis Tour (2001, HarperCollins); and Foul Lines: A Pro Basketball Novel co-written with Jack McCallum (2006, Touchstone). His seventh book, Scorecasting: The Hidden Influences Behind How Sports Are Played and Games Are Won—co-written with University of Chicago finance professor Tobias Moskowitz—uses economic principles to explain sports. It came out in January 2011 and was a New York Times best seller. He is currently working on a book with sportscaster Al Michaels.
