Understand that sports federations and tennis academies are for guidance, coaching, training, and support. What they’re not responsible for is how far an athlete gets in their career.
In tennis, it seems to be around the age of 15 that the blame game starts. Also the biggest stage of kids who drop out.
Yes, good coaching and money are needed to reach the top in a sport, but if you want it, you’ll find a way.
It’s not the amount of cash in the federation’s bank, but the amount of ‘want’ in the athletes ‘tank’.
The biggest factor in an athlete reaching the top lies in the individual’s hunger & passion. How much they are willing to work for it and live for it.
Did Grand Slam champions like Svetlana Kuznetsova or Novak Djokovic (photo – wall where he played as a kid) or Victoria Azarenka come from rich families, countries, and federations?
No. What they did come from was a relentless mentality to reach the top. They hustled, took risks, and moved to other countries to develop their careers.
Understand that tennis federations are there for support of athlete, not the responsibility of them winning majors or Grand Slams.
