The advantage of this big team?
- Jim used to play football and likes the team spirit. It’s important in tennis to have a solid basis because tennis players can lose their confidence very quickly. The 3 physios, for example, are very different (56 y. old, 42 and 30) and he has a different relationship with each of them, which is great. The mental coach Hervet has been a player himself, which is very helpful too. And they’ve all committed to a long-term project.
One of his main rules also was to stay on his native soil and to work with people coming from that region.
