The Realz Gang interviewed Kamau Murray, President/CEO of XS Tennis, Executive Director of XSTEF, and coach of American tennis player, Sloane Stephens. We talked about his push to send minority students to college on tennis scholarships, coaching Sloane Stephens & Taylor Townsend, and his vision of the role of a coach.
In addition, the Gang broke down the week’s action in tennis, particularly in Monte Carlo. Congratulations to Rafa Nadal on his 9th Monte Carlo Masters title! Special shout-out to Gael Monfils for his valiant fight in his 3rd Masters’ final. There’s bound to be a break-through just around the corner.
