	Indian Wells - Pancho Segura: The One & Only
		Segura learned to play tennis, came to the U.S. in 1940, won three straight NCAA singles titles, became a fine amateur, an even better pro and later earned renown as a notable instructor and coach, most notably when he worked with Jimmy Connors.
		Here were Dechy and Zuluaga, and there was Segura issuing all the strategic insights on their behalf that he shared with hundreds of students, ranging from someone who could barely hold a racquet to the likes of Connors and Agassi.
		Segura's mind races across time and place, from the players on the court, to current players active at this event — Federer, Blake, Henin-Hardenne — back to the greats he played like Gonzales, Kramer and Trabert.

	Francisco Segura Caano "Pancho" - International Tennis Hall of Fame
		Unfortunately for Segura, he was out of the limelight once he became a professional, but while he beat Dinny Pails, Frank Parker, and Ken McGregor in their series, sharpening his strokes and tactics and becoming one of the great players, he received little recognition.
		Jack Kramer and Pancho Gonzalez were the stars, but Segura was making his mark in a small circle as a shrewd strategist, a cunning lobber, and a killer with a forehand.
		Segura lost the title to Gonzalez on three occasions, 1955, 1956 and 1957, and a fourth at age 41, to Butch Buchholz in 1962.

	Pancho Gonzalez - Reviews on RateItAll
		Pancho, the son of working-class immigrants from Mexico(as a child, his father Manuel walked with his dad 900 miles from their hometown Chihuahua to Arizona, eventually settling in South Central L.A.) learned to play the sport on the public courts of Los Angeles.
		During this period, Pancho could simutaneously punish a tennis ball, an opponent, an umpire and audience; he didn't take crap from anyone, sugarcoat the truth, or suffer fools gladly...in the 1950's he turned a genteel, civilized, leisurely sport into a streetfight and never looked back.
		In the year 2000 (5 years after Pancho's death), Gonzales's brother Ralph stated, He was in the top ten for over 25 years and never had a tennis lesson.
