Description
With the US Open’s #BeOpen in our focus, USTA, Director, Player Development Martin Blackman, returns as our Grand Slam Correspondent and talks about the strength of American players in the 2021 US Open. Blackman, who won the USTA Boys’ 16s National Championship in 1986, reached a career-high of No. 158 on the ATP Tour. ESPN reporter Kris Budden tells us why she loves to watch tennis on TV even though she’s on football and baseball fields more than tennis courts. Our junior player highlight is the newly-crowned USTA Girls’ 16s doubles champion Riley Crowder, of Dothan, AL. USTA South Carolina VP Craig Wells shines in our high school coach spotlight; he coaches at Daniel HS in Central, SC.
