Episode 15: Jim Courier

Chris O'Gorman interviews Tennis Hall of Famer Jim Courier. The two discuss: Jim's career changing entry and exit from the famed Bollottieri Academy, Jim's early and unanticipated rise to a world number 1 ranking, the amazing story of the contemporaneous success and dominance of Djokovic, Federer and Nadal and could it ever be repeated, Jim stops the historic run of fan favorite Jimmy Connors at the 1991 US Open, the paltry share of revenues that tennis players receive relative to other US sports, Jim provides an inside look at the feuding governing tennis bodies and his expectation for Saudi investment in professional tennis, his early utilization of a sports psychologist that at the time was frowned upon and after a long Grand Slam drought, Jim is optimistic about the future for Men's American Tennis.
