Episode Details

It's been a while since we've has a hitting partner on the show, so we are delighted to release this podcast episode with Giannis Stergiou, who is the hitting partner of Maria Sakkari 🇬🇷

Giannis works closely with Maria, as well as Tom Hill (coach of Maria), who we've had on the podcast before 😃

We talk:

• His tennis background
• Starting to work with Maria
• Pressure he feels on the practice court
• Fitness sessions
• Tennis hype in Greece!

Giannis is a pretty relaxed & down to earth guy, so it was nice to be able to chat with him. He also tells us 5 things that he has learned from being a professional hitting partner 💪

Let us know what you think!
