The Guinness Book of Sports Records is the number-one source for information on sports records. Crammed with over 5,000 records covering more than 100 sports, this fully revised and updated edition also includes over 150 exciting action photographs. In addition to statistics, The Guinness Book of Sports Records provides insight from some of sports' most famous record-breakers. Superstars such as Tiger Woods, Patrick Roy, Ken Griffey Jr., Dan O'Brien, Teresa Edwards, Shannon Miller and Amy Van Dyken offer tips on how to top their marks, record-holders they admire and what other fields they would like to conquer. Here is a sampling of some of the featured interviews in this all-new edition:

"I'm not out just to be the best black player. I want to be the best golfer ever. On a weekly basis, my game will improve and my finishes will be better." -- Tiger Woods, on his record-breaking rookie accomplishment

"I could tell you that I was sitting down, but my gut wasn't in the seat. I knew he didn't get past me when we hit the bricks. It was very exciting and exhilarating." -- Al Unser Jr., on winning the closest-ever Indianapolis 500

"The closer has to be put into the position to save a game... I was just fortunate to be put in that position." -- John Wetteland, the World Series MVP, on setting the consecutive saves record

"It started off at club shoots -- little shoots just for the fun of it. From there, before I knew it, I was at the State, and then the World... and then the Olympics." -- Kim Rhode, on becoming the youngest Olympic shooting champion at the '96 Games

"You have to get players to know their roles. You have to strive for perfection. Everybody can play under any system as long as you are on the same page and going in the same direction." -- Scotty Bowman, the NHL's winningest coach, describing his coaching philosophy
