Pete Sampras's fate at the 1994 Lipton Championship was resting in the hands of Andre Agassi. That morning, a very ill Sampras woke up knowing he'd be unable to play as scheduled. He also knew that in that moment Agassi could walk away with the trophy and the check without looking back, but Agassi chose a different path. He opted to delay the match in hopes it would give Pete enough time to get back on his feet. Said Agassi: “If I can't beat the best player in the world, I don't deserve the trophy. I especially don't deserve it if I can't beat him when he's sick.” This episode is part of the International Tennis Hall of Fame's TennisWorthy short-form series.

Er wurde der Professor genannt und hat gegen Sampras, Lendl, Gilbert und fast alle Legenden der 90er gespielt. Wir sprechen über Niki Pilics Anrufbeantworter, seinen Davis Cup Einsatz, seine größten Siege und was Karl Meiler ihm in Agadir beigebracht hat. Viele sehr unterhaltsame Anekdoten eines Top 100 ATP Profis, der nun eine beeindruckende Karriere in der Wirtschaft hingelegt hat.

Once upon a time, American tennis ruled the world—McEnroe was yelling, Connors was winning, and Sampras had the smoothest serve this side of Wimbledon. Now? Let's just say… pickleball might be giving tennis a run for its money. In this nostalgic and thought-provoking episode of Just Wondering, legendary broadcaster Norm Hitzges dives deep into “The Decline of American Tennis.” From the glory days of packed stadiums and national pride to today's dwindling spotlight, Norm breaks down how—and why—tennis slipped from the American sports throne. 

“I take people as a story… I can see their higher self before they can.” – Carlos Salum Carlos grew up under Argentina's military dictatorship—surrounded by uncertainty, but also by entrepreneurs, poets, and principled people who knew how to thrive despite it. That tension didn't crush him. It sharpened his vision—so much so that, by adulthood, traditional paths like law & medicine felt like cages, not callings. So he did what most people won't: He bet on himself. On a handshake, he pitched a partnership to the world's top tennis coach. No credentials. No fancy title. Just conviction. Then he flew to Germany, crashed on a friend's couch, & hustled up a seven-city speaking tour with no internet, no safety net, & no backup plan. Eight months later, the world's biggest sports agency called him “Houdini” as he coached legends like Agassi, Seles, & Sampras. But it was never just about tennis. It was always about helping people live with alignment, intention, and impact. Today, he brings that same fire to business owners. Ready to align with something deeper? Find him at SalumInternational.com. Joseph Campbell said, “The privilege of a lifetime is being who you are.” Carlos helps people remember that.

Pour ce début de semaine, l'équipe de Court N°1 a choisit de vous raconter le match incroyable à l'US Open en 2001 entre Pete Sampras et André Agassi. Un quart de finale éblouissant entre les deux légendes : quatre sets, quatre tie-break et aucun break dans cette rencontre. Souvenirs...

Season 3 of the TennisWorthy Podcast is here, just in time for the Australian swing and welcomes a new host in ITHF President and ESPN commentator Patrick McEnroe. Patrick and Chris Bowers bring two stories from Hall of Famers Hana Mandlíková and Pete Sampras. In reliving two key moments from their careers, Mandlíková and Sampras focus on their mental resilience and tenacity in overcoming challenges. Mandlíková, once seen as a natural rival to Martina Navratilova, became a Czech national hero, winning major titles like the Australian Open and Roland Garros. However, she struggled to break through the dominance of Navratilova and Chris Evert in the mid-80s. After improving her fitness and mentality, Mandlíková triumphed at the 1985 US Open, defeating both Evert and Navratilova, with the unexpected help of a Tina Turner anthem.Sampras, on the other hand, learned a crucial lesson about perseverance after his loss to Stefan Edberg in the 1992 US Open final. This experience drove him to dedicate himself fully to the sport, which eventually led to his success, including his 1996 US Open victory. He shares how he battled both illness and subpar play to outlast Alex Corretja in four hours and nine minutes in the quarterfinal.Stay tuned later in January as Patrick brings listeners more stories from the Australian Open. The TennisWorthy Podcast is presented by the International Tennis Hall of Fame. For more information and full episode transcriptions, visit tennisfame.com/podcast.

by Ed Shanaphy There's always that guy. The guy that is on the sidelines of every tournament, from a WTA qualifier to an ATP Masters to a Grand Slam. The guy who amazes onlookers through his building of a network. The guy who continues to work, even after retirement and sleeps in the back of a Suburban on the way to the next event. The guy who finally creates such volumes of great work, it brings him to the top of his profession from roots deep in the industry. The guy that becomes a legend and works with legends. On the tennis tour, that guy is Gary Kitchell. Kitchell, or Kitch as he is called by his hundreds - if not thousands - of colleagues and friends, is known around the world as one of the leading physiotherapists who graced tournament tennis courts across the globe. From the hallowed lawn of Centre Court at Wimbledon and the hard cement of Louis Armstrong Court at the US Open to the back courts at the 1990s Volvo ATP Tour stop in New Haven, Kitchell has worked with some of the greatest tennis players of all time. From the era of Borg and McEnroe, to the following upstarts Sampras and Agassi, to Federer and through to today's Tommy Paul, Reilly Opelka and Maria Sakkari, Kitch has treated injuries, reduced stress on the body and helped strength train numerous number one players to new heights. Gary loves tennis. It's always been a part of his life. His early days saw him teaching the indoor season in his native New Jersey. Soon after, he followed the sun as most instructors do and playing in semi-professional tournaments and was noticed at a small club in Vero Beach, Sea Oaks, at which he started his road along the highways and byways of the professional tours. His views of the professional tennis tours are from an interesting objective - a viewpoint from outside the employ of either the men's or women's tour but from within the fires that comprise the professional game and the travel demanded of today's tennis stars. He sees the challenges that the professional tour faces today as the Davis Cup limps along while the Laver Cup becomes a global phenomenon. He also sees the difficulty private members clubs may have using the professional game as a catalyst to new members as the tour lengthens its season and the tournaments are diluted by so much television and streamed coverage. An understanding of the professional game helps Gary to see where tennis may be headed on the amateur level at tennis and country clubs across the country. A commitment to building a community and social network at any club needs to be a priority to continue the sport's growth as it faces challenges from pickleball and padel. As a member of several private members clubs, Gary has some sage advice for club managers and directors in the club management arena. Join Gary on the BeyondTheBaselines.com podcast.

Barry STORMS out of the podcast because he doesn't want to hear about the difference between "literally" and "hyperbole". But if you can't handle the heat, get out of the podcast studio! Compared to the 1968 Democratic National Convention, 2024 came and went without a hitch! Regardless, Zach was out of town because he hates traffic! A FED rate cut in September seems like a foregone conclusion at this point, so it can only have a negative impact on mortgage rates if they don't follow through. The US Open starts today and Zach will be watching his favorites: Djokovic and Alcaraz (sorry Americans, we haven't been at the top of global tennis since the days of Sampras and Agassi) As always, FREE 1 on 1 consultations available at: https://townstone.com/consultation-request/

El 47% del tiempo ha habido un número 1 que golpea así (Sampras, Lendl, Federer). Hoy, por primera vez en la historia, no hay ningún jugador en el top ten que juegue con el revés a una mano.

McEnroe tegen Borg, Sampras tegen Agassi, Nadal tegen Federer: aan titanenstrijd in tennis geen gebrek. Bij de mannen dan. Bij vrouwen zien we deze langdurige rivaliteiten een stuk minder. Waarom? Naast plain old seksisme is er een andere verklaring die minder voor de hand ligt: toeval.

Alexandra Stevenson brings a fun program with her co-host and coach Hugues Laverdière and Eliot Teltscher, formerly 6 in the world in 1983.  She calls it "Coaches Corner" - something she plans to do during the Australian Open with Ougi and other coaches. Alexandra pointedly says the pundits need to quit comparing Coco Gauff to Serena Williams. Alexandra says they compare Coco to Serena because she is black.  So.  She says - stop doing that - compare Coco to herself.  Eliot says she plays more like Sanchez Vicario and Sabatini.  Ougi agrees with Alexandra on skin color.  The trio move on and take on Nick Kyrgios and his comment that the serve and volley players in generation of Sampras, Edberg, Becker, Rafter  - could not play against the players of today.  Alexandra says "No."  Sampras, Edberg, Becker, Rafter - would "eat them for lunch" today.  Alexandra talks about the amazing technique - including serve and volley - of an older John McEnroe - and what she saw when she hit with him in October in Malibu, California. They continue to discuss the different players in the Australian Open and their picks for the men's and women's draws. Alexandra talks about Naomi Osaka and her return - and how her team is setting her up for the next five years.  She has brought in a prima ballerina to get her core back and her deep knee bends - and she is back with former coach Wim Fissette.  Alexandra says Osaka will bring it against Coco Gauff eventually - if not this year.

This week Candy Reid interviews legendary tennis coach Rick Macci in a podcast special. Headlines are...RICK MACCI ON COACHING KIDS - ‘It's all the other things that stick with the kids that help them become a better doctor or lawyer, or treat their kids better or you know, I help kids get better grades or get off drugs or treat people better. To me I don't just change strokes, I change lives and that's the best feeling in the world'.RICK MACCI ON WORKING WITH PARENTS - ‘It's not only about teaching kids, I teach the parents and that's the art of coaching. Think about it, they eventually start telling me what to do, how crazy is that? But I tell people I should be in the Hall of Fame just for dealing with Richard Williams for four years! You have to have a certain personality just dealing with the cast of characters, Jim Pierce, Stefano Capriati, Richard Williams, keeping your hands around that, that's the tough thing'.RICK MACCI ON SERENA WILLIAMS - ‘When she was ten, Serena wasn't that good. I had ten thousand parents look at that video and say that their kid was better then that, but they didn't see what was under the hood. There were arms, legs and head all over the place, but when I said to play competitive points, the whole landscape changed, there was a rage. You don't judge the book by the cover. It's what I saw under the hood which was the wildcard and that's why she's going to be the greatest of all time'.RICK MACCI ON ANDY RODDICK - ‘His thirst for competition was like no other. The guy was so competitive, the wiring to compete, which is the wildcard really to handle the pressure, his competitive thirst, he was a mosquito, he just wouldn't leave you alone. He was never going to be a Sampras or a Chang, but I think he over-achieved and people didn't appreciate him as much until we haven't really had another male American Grand Slam Champion since'.RICK MACCI ON HIS COACHING PHILOSOPHY - ‘I tell people I've been wrong a lot and that's why I'm right more than most people. There's motivational signs all over the Rick Macci tennis centre like 'Winners find a way, losers find excuses' and that's the power of one word, one sentence or one moment in time, that maybe can influence a child's life. It's not where you start, it's where you finish and if you love what you do and you have passion, that will keep pushing you forward'.
