In my opinion: Headcoach Erik Csarnakovics about recent form of Petra Kvitova…

Petra Kvitova is out of TOP 10 in WTA rankings. There is no question about her making her way back into the TOP 10; I would say even TOP 5. She has what it takes to become world number one. Remember, she was close to achieving it almost five years ago. Petra won Wimbledon twice, since 2011 at the end of the seasons; she was always in TOP 10 with at least 3500 points (not since February 2016). She has all...

LOVE 4 TENNIS topic: Organizing of the national tournaments in Slovakia and Czech Republic

Czech and Slovak tennis have many differences, including number of courts, its quality and interest of young people and children, competition, organisational side of tournaments and we could continue naming more and more. I would like to concentrate on the last point mentioned. It is a topic I can talk about, I played tennis in both countries and I have experience I would like to share. I would start by comparing number of tournaments in Czech Republic and Slovakia. During the...

LOVE 4 TENNIS Topic: Parents influence on player and training process

Every parent has smaller or bigger impact on development of a player and training process. Impact can be positive or negative. In most cases parents want to have influence on the development of their child, however they often do big mistakes, which they are not aware of and they slow down the development rather than help it. They often spoil the effort of the coaching staff. In many cases they are the reasons for giving up by the players and disliking...
