In this episode, I got to spend some time chatting with the new ATP Dallas Open tournament director Peter Lebedevs.
You’ll gather some insights into what it takes to run a pro tournament, as well as some doubles strategies from an Aussie who has coached at every level of tennis.
After trying several sports as a kid, Peter grew to love tennis, and that love turned into several years of playing and coaching. Following this, Peter would work his way through the ranks to become the tournament director at the Memphis Open, Atlanta Open, and New York Open.
I knew Peter from my childhood when I was a ball boy at the Memphis Open. We were voted the best ball kids on tour 😉
We talk about the Dallas Open, his tennis story, and, of course, how to make doubles more popular. In addition to this, we talk doubles strategy:
Why high percentage tennis is winning tennis.Where you should go with your serve more often.The toughest volley in tennis.A very important lesson he learned from Wayne Bryan.PS. Peter also makes a prediction on the Novak Djokovic – Australian Open situation early in the episode. (The episode was recorded on January 6, 2022, when Djokovic was still in holding.)
