We zijn van start met de kwartfinales van het Libéma Open. Bij de laatste acht vrouwen en mannen in Rosmalen is nog één Nederlandse over. Suzan Lamens gaan we in actie zien tegen Elisabetta Cocciaretto. Gaat zij het slotweekend halen? We spraken erover met Steffan Kok van TENNiS Magazine en De Tennistafel podcast. Presentatie: Robert Denneman

De eerste ronde van Roland Garros zit erop. Tot nu toe hebben we een prachtig afscheid van Rafael Nadal gezien, een geweldige comeback van ons eigen Jesper de Jong en een Coco Gauff die wilde gaan tennissen zonder rackets. Tijd voor een update en dus spraken we met vanuit Parijs Steffan Kok van TENNiS Magazine en De Tennistafel podcast. Presentatie: Robert Denneman

Hij was er dichtbij, maar toch kon Tallon Griekspoor dit weekend niet zijn derde ATP-titel pakken. In de finale van de Grand Prix Hassan II in Marrakesh kwam het in twee sets tot een tiebreak, maar de Italiaan Luciano Darderi was in beiden te sterk. Lang om te rusten is er niet, want het circus gaat gelijk door met de Rolex Monte-Carlo Masters en de vrouwen spelen deze week de kwalificatie van de Billy Jean King Cup. We spraken erover met Steffan Kok van TENNiS Magazine en De Tennistafel podcast. Presentatie: Robert Denneman

We bevinden ons momenteel midden in 'The Sunshine Double'. De combinatie van de Amerikaanse tennistoernooien in Indian Wells en Miami is er eentje die alle wereldtoppers in de agenda genoteerd hebben staan. Het toernooi van Indian Wells kwam afgelopen weekend ten einde en daar zagen de fans de Brit Jack Draper de grootste toernooizege van zijn carrière pakken en de piepjonge Mirra Andreeva haar goede vorm vanuit Dubai doorzetten. Momenteel zijn we in Miami voor de Miami Open. Wat mogen we van dit toernooi verwachten? We spraken over dit alles met Steffan Kok van TENNiS Magazine en De Tennistafel podcast. Presentatie: Robert Denneman

Afgelopen week werden in het Emiraat Dubai de Dubai Tennis Championships gespeeld. Voor Tallon Griekspoor werd het een mooi toernooi, waarin hij tot de halve finale reikte. Hoe gaat het eigenlijk met de Nederlander en wat hebben we eigenlijk nog allemaal meer gezien daar in het Midden-Oosten? We gaan daarnaast in volle vaart door, want we gaan deze week alweer verder met Indian Wells. We spraken erover met Steffan Kok van TENNiS Magazine en De Tennistafel. Presentatie: Robert Denneman

ALLsportsradio doet deze week dagelijks live-verslag vanaf het ABN AMRO Open. De uitzendingen van ALLsportsradio LIVE! staan geheel in het teken van dit grootste indoor tennistoernooi van Europa in Rotterdam Ahoy. Tijdens de vierde dag sprak Robert Denneman met tennissers Botic van de Zandschulp en Daniel Altmaier. Van de Zandschulp speelde een geweldige partij tegen Carlos Alcaraz, maar trok uiteindelijk niet aan het langste eind. Altmaier was in eerste instantie al in het kwalificatietoernooi uitgeschakeld, maar mocht als 'lucky loser' uiteindelijk toch meedoen aan het hoofdtoernooi na afmelding van Mpetshi Perricard. Zijn eerste ronde partij won hij en dus is hij alsnog door naar de achtste finales. In de studio schoof ook Sander Bestevaar aan. Hij is Hoofd Partnerships, Events & Foundations van ABN AMRO en spraken we over wat de bank eigenlijk allemaal doet tijdens en rondom het toernooi, naast dat het natuurlijk sinds jaar en dag naamgevend sponsor is. We spraken met toernooidirecteur Esther Vergeer over de voorbereidingen en start van het rolstoeltoernooi en namen met Steffan Kok van TENNiS Magazine en De Tennistafel de laatste stand van zaken door. Botic van de Zandschulp, Daniel Altmaier, Sander Bestevaar, Esther Vergeer en Steffan Kok hoorde je tijdens ALLsportsradio LIVE! Het sportmagazine hoor je normaliter doordeweeks tussen 12:00 en 13:00 uur en deze week tussen 17:00 en 18:00 uur via www.allsportsradio.nl/player!

Het slotstuk van de Australian Open staat dit weekend op ons te wachten. Bij de vrouwen zal tweevoudig titelverdedigster Aryna Sabalenka het opnemen tegen de Amerikaanse Madison Keys.

From time to time, The Coaching Podcast understands that we all lead busy lives, and sometimes you might have less than 10 minutes in your daily schedule to listen to The Coaching Podcast for inspiration. Therefore, our guest coaches this week are Coach Mick (Chris Michalowski) and Jorge Capestany - performance coaches who walk their talk. With years of coaching experience, these bite-sized interviews, from years ago, still hold true today when we reflect on their responses as to what makes a great coach: Coach Mick (1 min, 50 seconds) - believes that a great coach has passion, compassion and empathy. Coach Capestany (4 mins, 58 seconds) - believes that a great coach can see possibilities, is a lifelong learner and can customize their content to meet the needs of the learner. Emma is very grateful to Jorge and his wife, Coach Marty, for their hospitality of love over the years and for introducing her to Coach Mick during a Polar Vortex in Michigan when they were both speaking at a high school conference. You can learn more about each coach below: Coach Mick, Chris Michalowski, USPTA Elite Professional & USTA High Performance Coach From Coach Mick: My ultimate goal is to get to know you better, but first I will fill you in on who I am, just to break the ice. My name is Chris Michalowski. I am a USPTA Tennis Professional and Director of Tennis at the Grand Traverse Resort and Spa (click here to see) in one of the most pristine areas of Northern Michigan. Next to my faith, wife and family, tennis is a passion of mine that I hold dear to since I started playing, seriously anyway, at the age of 13. Tennis really broke me out of my shell and gave me confidence in many different areas of my life. I became a ranked junior player and was one match away from winning a state championship in high school. Three years after I started playing, I started teaching at the Midland Community Tennis Center, in Midland Michigan. It is known as one of the top clubs in the nation and recently, Midland won the “Best Tennis Town” by the United States Tennis Association. I loved to teach and wanted to learn as much as I could about the game (it helped my playing too). I knew that teaching was in my future, but my coach at the time encouraged me to stay in Architecture, my other career consideration , because of the long hours and the toll tennis takes on the body. I was accepted into the University of Cincinnati's architecture program, which was rated very high at the time, but the long hours in the studio kept me from playing and teaching. While at Cincinnati, the Ferris State University coach called and informed me that he wanted me to play on the team and take part in their new Professional Tennis Management program, the first ever, endorsed by the United States Professional Tennis Association. I was all over it. I walked through the doors and from there, never looked back. I was a member of the varsity mens team and when I wasn't hitting, I was absorbing all I could to become the best possible teaching professional that I could be. I am still that way and it drives my wife crazy sometimes. But to be honest, I feel that you can never stop learning and becoming even better at what you love to do. I have remained at the resort for 25 years as the director and was a director in the summertime (for 4 years) at one of the most prestigious country clubs in the Midwest at the time. Two jobs was a lot to handle so I decided to stay here where I feel like I was called to be. Thankfully, I stayed or I would not have met my incredible wife and parent four great kids we have been blessed with. One thing that I will always stand by, just like playing a match, is that when you are up 5-2 in the set, remember how you got there and keep doing the things that got you there in the first place. Don't change your game style at a critical time, especially when you are so close to winning the set The same goes for my outlook on teaching and my career. I still average close to 40 hours a week on the tennis court, manage a staff of 12 teaching professionals/instructors and stay active building tennis in my community with sore knees and all. I love being out there and that is what got me to where I am today, so why change things at 5-2 in the set? Do I consider myself an expert? The industry has said yes, but it is not that simple because tennis has changed over time and keeps advancing in exciting ways. I feel that it is important for teaching professionals, like myself , to stay in tune with sport science, new trends and teaching techniques, technology and new ways of teaching the game so that I can stay on top of “my game.” If I taught the same way I did 20 years ago, things would be very different for me right now and I would not have the opportunities and successes that I have been blessed with. Even as a USPTA Midwest Tester, I still learn something each time we administer the teaching exam to new tennis professionals. So what does all this mean? It means that through the use of technology and my knowledge and relationships that I developed with experts from around the world, I hope to be able to have a relationship with you and help in any way that I can to take your game to the next level.

"It's those times where you're sort of sitting there figuring out what can we do to make the most of this tournament in terms of publicizing our sport? It's just finding the different avenues to tell people about our game." Though a lot of focus has been on the players and all of the obstacles they've had to endure this past month and year, reporters like this week's guest Blair Henley have had to adjust, too. Henley is a recognizable face on the tour as one of the top digital media creators and stadium hosts out there. After her own playing career wrapped up at Rice University, Henley got her start making instructional videos for Tennis Now and writing for outlets like TENNIS Magazine. Since 2015, she has been a stadium host at some of the most popular calendar stops like the US Open, Cincinnati, Indian Wells and Delray Beach. Her job is to put the players, and the tournaments, on the map. She tells us all about her career and what it has been like to get quality time with big names like Roger Federer while building relationships with new faces like Coco Gauff and Sebastian Korda.  To start of the year, she was one fate lucky few on site at Delray Beach. Then during the Austrian Open swing, she did online interviews called “Quarantine Chronicles” with Victoria Azarenka, Stefanos Tsitsitpas and Rajeev Ram for her YouTube channel.  She explains how her work has been impacted by the pandemic, though it hasn't been all bad: Zoom has made reporting and content creation possible from anywhere in the world.

"It's just that sort of natural approach that I've always had and, yeah, it's taken some fine-tuning. For the most part, it's just breaking down that fourth wall and letting the viewer feel like they're there with you." This week's TENNIS.com Podcast features reporter Nick McCarvel. He's got a lot of stories from the road to share with podcast co-hosts Nina Pantic and Irina Falconi. While studying journalism, McCarvel got his start in tennis by walking into the Tennis Magazine offices in Manhattan asking for a summer internship, and soon after, he began writing for the New York Times and USA Today. He made the leap to on-camera hosting at Indian Wells a few years ago, and has never looked back. Beyond tennis, he also covers figure skating, taking on the role of NBC Olympics digital reporter last year in Pyeongchang.  McCarvel has carved out his place as a content creator, commentator and host, often taking over social media with his feature videos and interviews. He has become a smiling staple at seemingly every stop on tour and has worked with every big name in tennis—even chatting with Roger Federer and Serena Williams in the Twitter Blue Room after they won their Australian Open titles in 2017.

On Episode 81 of The Tennis Files Podcast, I spoke with world-renowned sports performance expert Dr. Mark Kovacs about the 8-stage model of the tennis serve. I spoke with Dr. Kovacs about the role of the kinetic chain in the serve on The Tennis Technique Summit that I previously hosted, and it was voted the most favorite session of the event. That's why I decided to bring the audio of that session to this episode's podcast to help you improve your serve and get more power, fluidity, and explosiveness on the most important stroke in the game. Mark is a performance physiologist, researcher, professor, author, speaker and coach with an extensive background training and researching elite athletes. He has been featured in many of the biggest sports and news publications, including ESPN, the New York Times, and Tennis Magazine. Mark was also a top college player at Auburn and achieved a world ranking on the ATP Tour. I also have two of Mark's books: Tennis Anatomy and Complete Conditioning For Tennis (2nd Edition). Mark is also the co-founder of the International Performance Tennis Association, of which I am a proudly certified Tennis Performance Trainer, and the founder of The Kovacs Institute. Mark routinely gives presentations around the world about sports performance and training, and I feel very lucky to have had his support on the podcast and my tennis summits. On this episode, we talk about Mark's 8-stage model of the tennis serve and how using your kinetic chain fully and in the proper sequence is the key to having a great serve. I really hope you enjoy my interview with Mark! Let us know what you think about this episode in the comments below!

Today, we discuss tennis photography from two distinct points of view. Our first guest is an independent photographer with twenty years of tennis photography experience to his credit, and later, we’re joined by representatives from Drawbridge Digital, the company that is present for all three weeks of the 2018 U.S. Open, creating and managing the still photography used on U.S. Open.org. and archived by the U.S.T.A.  On the first half of the show, we welcome Chris Nicholson, a veteran of our podcast, and a multi-faceted photographer whose tennis work has been published in Wired, Men’s Health, Golf Digest, Tennis Magazine and the New York Times. We speak with Nicholson about the opportunities available for freelancers and even amateurs to shoot tennis matches and high-profile players. We discuss techniques, settings, and gear that will make your job easier and your photos better. After a break, we are joined by photographer Jen Pottheiser, and Reid Kelley of Drawbridge Digital, and we explore their massive undertaking to photograph the U.S. Open for the host organization. They work with all facets of the U.S.T.A. to provide photography to the editors at usopen.org, to their social media outlets, their marketing partners, as well as provide image storage solutions so that the thousands of photos taken at the Open can be made available for future needs. We speak with Pottheiser and Kelley about managing the workflow of over twenty photographers and editors on staff during the Open, about the on- and off-court images they look for, the systems they use to edit and organize the photos, and how to maintain your creativity while shooting nothing but tennis for three weeks. Join us for this timely and interesting look behind the scenes at the 2018 U.S. Open Grand Slam Tournament.   For more info on the products mentioned in this episode: Canon EF 400mm f/5.6L USM Lens Nikon AF-S NIKKOR 400mm f/2.8E FL ED VR Lens Manfrotto 290 Carbon Fiber Monopod  Guests: Chris Nicholson, Jen Pottheiser, Reid Kelley Photograph © Chris Nicholson

On today's episode I had the pleasure of speaking with Neil Endicott, a coach and author who specializes in Mindfulness-Based Tennis Psychology (MBTP). Neil discussed how tennis players can play more confident and effective tennis by training the mental part of their game through MBTP. Neil has written numerous articles that have been featured in publications such as The Huffington Post and Tennis Magazine. Even Novak Djokovic has talked about how mindfulness helped him reach new heights in his career in his book Serve to Win. If one of the greats in the game believes in training yourself to be more mindful, it's worth a try. We discuss human psychology, how players can change their mindset through MBTP, meditation, and how we can train ourselves to perform our best by being in the moment and recognizing negative thoughts for what they are: thoughts and nothing more. I know a lot of you struggle with pressure and negative emotions on the court. This episode will help you on your journey to overcoming these mental obstacles. I hope you enjoy this fantastic episode on mindfulness with Neil. Time-Stamped Show Notes [4:43] How did you end up becoming an expert on the mental side of tennis?
