Just days after her French Open win, Coco Gauff is here on Nice Talk to discuss all things money, power, and style. Gauff has been a tennis legend nearly her entire life, and now, at 21 years old, she has two Grand Slam championships to her name. But on top of her tennis game, she's also made savvy business moves throughout her career. In fact, she penned a major brand deal with New Balance when she was only 14, and today, she continues to work with the brand on meaningful collabs like the Coco Delray sneaker and the New Balance x Miu Miu With Coco Gauff campaign. On this episode, Gauff discusses how having a life outside of tennis actually makes her a better player, what it meant to her to work with the USTA to update her home courts in Florida, and the other tennis players whose style she loves.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

A beutiful expose of the the rot that is the USTA for tennis in AMerica.

Kroatien ist ein katholisches Land – mehr oder weniger. Aber über die historische Rolle der Katholischen Kirche wird immer wieder gestritten. Besonders kontrovers ist das Verhalten dieser Kirche im Zweiten Weltkrieg. Das ewige Gesetz Gottes gelte für alle. Die Katholische Kirche kenne keine Herren- und keine Sklavenrasse. Das verkündete 1943 Alojzije Stepinac, der Erzbischof von Zagreb, und er hielt sich daran. Gleichwohl begrüßte er den kroatischen Staat der faschistischen Ustaše. An diesem Widerspruch arbeitet sich die kroatische Gesellschaft noch heute ab. Ob der bereits selige Stepinac auch heiliggesprochen werden kann? Die meisten Kroaten sind sich sicher, Papst Franziskus weiß es nicht. Die Geschichte des kroatischen Katholizismus birgt eine Menge Sprengstoff.

A clear explanation of how to colorwash in sports. Simply horrible in 2025.

A perfect exposé of the incapable USTA and how the top executives lie, deceive, and nothing happens other than the sport being slowly killed by the very people entrusted to protect it.

A five-minute exposé of the rot that the USTA represents for our sport.We need them out, and we need them out NOW 

I met Rex Kulman and his father Guy when he was 8 years old at the Oracle Challenger in 2020, just days before the world quarantined. Five years later Rex is an elite 13 year old player, approaching a 10 UTR, is home schooled, and is coached full time by Diego Moyano, the former coach of Coco Gauff and Frances Tiafoe, respectively. Rex has trained at McEnroe Academy, Mouratoglou Academy, as well as the USTA's campus in Lake Nona and in Queens. Most recently Rex played in ITF Junior tournaments in Havana and Jamaica, and we talked about it all. His unique life in tennis is fascinating, and I hope every parent and child in tennis has a listen. Recorded 4.28 Released 4.30 Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

The sad truth about the limitations of the USTA executives is that they listen to a clear explanation of how mediocre and limited-minded people destroy an entire sport for a nation with $600M per year to grow it. All they grow and improve are the bathrooms for bankers and hedge fund managers.This clearly explains how the incapables are a true failure as managers, executives, Americans, and of course, as men. 

Compare Yale's letter to save the institution to the useless USTA executives who steal from the sport they are entrusted to serve and save.

An article worth listening to that describes just how poor the USTA leadership is.

On the 244th episode of the GreatBase Tennis podcast, Steve Smith, Dave Anderson, and Ivan Ozerets interview Dave Sivertson. On the podcast previous to this edition, Dave shared information, ideas, and insights related to on-court success. The USTA national title holder and ITF international team champion has been equally as successful off the court as on. He is in his fifth decade working as a tennis director.  Dave has served as a tennis director for some of the most prestigious tennis clubs in the United States.Dave has written a 400-page business program for club managers and tennis professionals to improve the productivity and profitability of their tennis operations. The written work is called 'Net Profits.' https://www.netprofittennis.com/To name a few of the industry awards he has won are the USPTA National Pro of the Year, the USPTA Texas Pro of the Year, and the Lloyd Sessions Education Award. He is a master pro with the USPTA (now RSPA) and has served the organization as a speaker, educator, committee member, and officer of the board.

Ever wondered how self-rating works in USTA tennis?  

Send us a textOn this episode, we'll be tackling one of the thorniest recurring issues in all of sports, and at every level of sport: what happens when a coach tries to interfere with a team doctor's medical decision about returning a player to the field and about their care and treatment. Joining me to break this down are Dr. James Borchers, longtime head team doctor for Ohio State Athletics, the first ever Chief Medical Officer for the Big 10 Conference, and the President and co-founder of the US Council for Athletes Health; and Brian Hainline, the former Chief Medical Officer of the NCAA and the USTA and a longtime professor of neurology.Thank you for listening!

Welcome to Season 13 Episode 41 of the ParentingAces Podcast, a proud member of the Tennis Channel Podcast Network. This week, Colette Lewis of ZooTennis joins me to discuss upcoming changes to junior tennis at both the ITF and USTA levels. This episode was born out of an email I received from a member of the ParentingAces community asking about the potential trickle-down effect of a recent ITF announcement that coaching will be allowed at ITF Junior tournaments beginning in 2025. Who better to discuss this topic than Colette who attends several ITF Junior events throughout the year in addition to the Junior Grand Slams. She spends a good amount of her time at those events talking with coaches, federation insiders, and others about the state of junior tennis and what may be coming down the pike. Colette and I discuss the potential impact of allowing coaching at junior tournaments as well as today's announcement from the USTA that it will be using electronic line calling (ELC) at the upcoming National Indoor tournament. There are still many, many unanswered questions, but I hope this conversation will lead to clarification from our governing bodies and better education for all involved. If you aren't already, be sure to subscribe to Colette's daily e-newsletter at https://tenniskalamazoo.blogspot.com/. You can also follow her on X at https://x.com/zootennis.
