This week we’re joined by Paul Kilderry, Tennis Australia’s Director of Professional Tennis who was at Roland Garros as several Aussies scored career breakthroughs in Paris. There’s also plenty to look forward to with the grasscourt season approaching, a time when Aussie players traditionally thrive. Yet this was also a chance to reflect on Kilderry’s own tennis journey, which saw his family relocate to Florida so he could attend the famed Nick Bolletieri academy as an elite junior. Following his playing career – during which he beat Grand Slam champions Richard Krajicek and Pat Rafter and also won three doubles titles – he has worked as a coach, player agent and tournament director, each role forging strong connections and coming with a wealth of stories, many of which he shares in this absorbing episode.
