intosport.com tips for the US Open Tennis – courtesy of Anne Pankhurst
4 days to the opening of the 2008 US Open Tennis in New York and the shifting of power within Men’s Tennis has been well documented. Will Roger Federer save what can only be considered a miserable year by his standards? Will new world No.1 Rafael Nadal add the US Open to his Olympic Gold, Wimbledon title and Roland Garros win? Can Andy Murray go one step further this year and make the final of a major tournament? It’s definitely a lot to digest and an appropriate time to seek an expert opinion.
So it is with considerable delight that we can announce that Anne Pankhurst has joined the www.intosport.com advisory team. Anne is a world renowned expert in sports coaching and a specialist in long term athlete development and is currently working in Coach Education in the United States with High Performance coaches and players. Prior to this she was a consultant at the Austin Tennis Academy in Texas advising on player development and worked at the LTA as Coach Education Director for over 11 years.
Anne Pankhurst said “Many people want to learn a new sport, increase their knowledge of one they already play or perhaps help their children learn in the best way possible. Until now coaching in many sports has been expensive and required lessons from a professional. www.intosport.com has all the information needed from high quality coaches online and it’s free. It’s technically sound and even includes advice on the physical and mental skills you need to make rapid progress. It is a great pleasure to be part of the www.intosport.com team”
So what’s our tip for the US Open? Federer for the 5th time? Nadal sweeping to his 3rd major in a row? Djokovic to win his 2nd slam? Murray for his 1st? This season has certainly shown us that Men’s Tennis is no longer dominated by one player, and here at www.intosport we’re going for a home winner in the form of James Blake. Why? He’s been through Anne Pankhurst’s development program that’s why!!!
