Mark Knowles has spent his life around some of the greatest players in tennis — first as a player alongside Andre Agassi, Jim Courier and Pete Sampras, and now as a coach working with Jessica Pegula.In this episode, Mark joins Caroline Garcia and Borja Durán for a deeply honest conversation about what actually separates talented players from the ones who reach their full potential.Mark reflects on why he believes he underachieved in singles, how perfectionism hurt his career, and why he now tells players: “Do not chase perfection.”He also opens up about coaching Jessica Pegula — why her team spent nearly a year convincing her to practice less, why elite players sometimes need less information rather than more, and how they are trying to help her take the final step toward winning a Grand Slam.The conversation also turns to one of the most sensitive subjects in tennis: parents.Mark explains why he believes players cannot reach their full potential until they establish the right relationship with their parents, leading Caroline to reflect openly on how her own father's involvement affected her confidence, independence and decision-making.They also discuss Jannik Sinner, Carlos Alcaraz, Rafael Nadal, Novak Djokovic, Andy Roddick, player development, burnout, confidence, and why some of the hardest moments in a tennis career can become the ones you miss most once it is over.

Ryan Harrison joins Caroline Garcia and Borja Duran for a deep dive into what elite tennis coaching actually looks like — and why some of the most common advice players receive may not help them at all.Now coaching Sebastian Korda, Ryan takes us inside the process of helping a player navigate pressure, setbacks and the biggest moments. He explains how Korda went from losing five straight points from 5–2 up in a deciding tiebreak against Taylor Fritz to handling the pressure differently weeks later against Carlos.Ryan also reflects on his own experience as a teenage prodigy, winning an ATP match at just 15, dealing with expectations and injuries, and what he wishes he had understood much earlier in his career.We get into why players can become obsessed with results instead of improvement, why tennis practice is often too generic, how players should actually choose a coach, and why telling someone to simply “be aggressive” means very little unless you can explain how.Ryan also turns coach for Caroline, breaking down how he would approach a match against Danielle Collins, before discussing parents in tennis, team dynamics, data, on-court coaching and his relationship with his brother Christian Harrison.CHAPTERS00:00 Ryan Harrison's tennis upbringing & being coached by his dad 01:18 Winning an ATP match at 15: when tennis became real 02:07 Pressure, plateaus & the prodigy trap 08:00 How Ryan's parents helped him handle the pressure 12:09 What Ryan wishes he understood as a player 15:26 Injuries, COVID & how adversity shaped him as a coach 19:08 Korda vs Fritz → Carlos: learning how to close 21:17 Coaching men vs women 23:42 How Ryan would coach Caroline against Danielle Collins 27:38 Why tennis practice is often too generic 29:52 Stop chasing immediate results 35:23 How tennis players should choose a coach 40:12 On-court coaching, trust & solving matches in real time 43:19 Why “be aggressive” means nothing 45:07 How Ryan uses data without overwhelming players 48:30 What he would tell a 15-year-old prodigy today 50:26 Parents in tennis: knowing when to step back 55:47 Christian Harrison: from sibling rivalry to unconditional support Hosted on Acast.

And can perfectionism create greatness without destroying the person?Former world No. 3 and Roger Federer's former coach Ivan Ljubicic joins Caroline Garcia and Borja Duran for an honest conversation about tennis parents, junior development, elite coaching and the hidden cost of becoming one of the best.Ivan explains why parents should be responsible for developing the human being—not coaching the tennis player—and how even a small expression of doubt can undermine a child's relationship with their coach. He discusses parents who project their own ambitions, the difficult transition toward independence, and why a parent can never fully occupy both roles.They also explore why results should not be the objective, how Jannik Sinner focuses on constant improvement, why junior success can be misleading, and what players should value when choosing a coach.Ivan then reveals what made Roger Federer so professional and coachable, how Federer treated the people around him, and why the greatest players never stop adding new tools to their game.In this episode:• The biggest mistakes tennis parents make• How to raise an ambitious but independent young athlete• Why results are outside a player's control• The relationship between perfectionism, success and happiness• How to choose the right coach• Why player and coach must share the same ambition• The danger of becoming successful too young• How elite tennis teams are built• What players can learn from Roger Federer• Why players must take ownership of their careersCan a parent successfully be both the parent and the coach?

Eugenie Bouchard returns to Tennis Insider Club for one of her most honest conversations yet.After reaching the Wimbledon final at 20, becoming one of the most talked-about players in tennis, and carrying the pressure of expectation for years, Genie opens up about why she really decided to retire.In this episode, she talks with Caroline Garcia and Borja Duran about the emotional cost of elite tennis, the pressure to repeat her 2014 breakthrough, the criticism she received for building a life beyond the court, the injuries she played through, and the strange freedom that came once she finally said: this is the end.Genie explains that she did not retire because she could no longer play. She still knew she could compete. But the demands of giving everything to tennis left little room for anything else in life. She also reflects on the mental spiral after difficult losses, how negative self-talk can become dangerous, and why being famous so young is much harder than people imagine.This is a conversation about retirement, but also about identity, ambition, sacrifice, fame, pressure, and learning to define success on your own terms.Follow Tennis Insider Club for more honest conversations with the biggest names in tennis.

The opening round of the 2025 US Open has had a little bit of everything — shock exits, emotional goodbyes, and first class meltdowns (ahem, Daniil Medvedev) so why not join Kim and Chris as they unpack all the drama from Flushing Meadows.Making the headlines, Australian Open champion Madison Keys' surprise defeat to Renata Zarazua was the standout upset, as the American struggled with nerves and unforced errors in front of the home crowd. At the other end of the spectrum, Novak Djokovic and Carlos Alcaraz opened their campaigns in style, with Djokovic overcoming the tricky up and comer Learner Tien whilst Alcaraz produced a near faultless win against big serving Reilly Opelka— though his new buzzcut stole plenty of headlines too. Is his brother to blame for a shocking buzz cut? Emma Raducanu also made waves, securing her first US Open win since her 2021 triumph, while Iga Swiatek maintained her blistering summer form with a commanding start. No bagels, but the New York bakery is open with a breadstick!Elsewhere, Venus Williams delighted Arthur Ashe Stadium in a three-set battle with Karolina Muchova, and the sport bid farewell to two beloved champions, Petra Kvitova and Caroline Garcia, who played their final matches. Add in Daniil Medvedev's latest meltdown that had the team wondering whether he went too far this time and plenty of bold-prediction drama in the Tennis Weekly camp, Round 1 has certainly set the tone for a thrilling fortnight ahead.SOCIALSFollow us on Twitter, Instagram, TikTok and YouTube, plus email the show tennisweeklypod@gmail.com.MERCHPurchase Tennis Weekly Merch through our Etsy store including limited edition designs by Krippa Design where all proceeds go towards the podcast so we can keep doing what we do!REVIEWS***Please take a moment to rate and review the show on Apple Podcasts, Spotify or wherever you get your pods.

It's been a Brit bonanza in Paris, with 6 of 7 sailing into Round 2 – including Emma Raducanu, who now faces defending champ Iga Swiatek in a blockbuster showdown. Cameron Norrie also pulled off the upset of the round, outlasting Medvedev in five, while Jack Draper kept cool to seal a confident 4-set win.Elsewhere, big names like Sinner, Alcaraz, Sabalenka, Gauff, and Djokovic (fresh off his 100th career title!) breezed through – but it wasn't all smooth sailing for the Americans, with Taylor Fritz and Emma Navarro crashing out early. Plus, Vika Azarenka dished out a ruthless double bagel, Caroline Garcia said her final singles farewell at her home Slam, and Roland Garros paid an emotional tribute to the King of Clay himself, Rafael Nadal, with the Big 4 reuniting to honour his legacy.
