Imagine this: you’re a young tennis player hungry to learn and improve. Then, bam! You get the chance to train alongside professional coaches! That’s precisely what happened to Aazaan and Boris, two of Ljubicic Tennis Academy’s players. Today wasn’t just about practice drills and backhands. Aazaan and Boris had a unique opportunity – a Random Q&A with Ivan Ljubicic!
Aazaan, went straight. “Mr. Ivan Ljubicic,” he asked, “what was the hardest match of your entire career?”
Ivan chuckled. “Great question. There’s a difference, you see, between physically demanding matches and mentally challenging ones.” He explained how the Austrian Open tested him physically and mentally. Sadly, he could not finish the match because he had a hand injury, which forced him to stop.
Next up was Boris, whose question sparked a conversation about the importance of rivalries. “Who was your biggest rival during your playing days?” he inquired.
“Interesting one, Boris. I played Roger Federer the most, so he’d be my biggest rival in terms of sheer matches.” But Ivan Ljubicic went deeper. He explained how rivalries go beyond wins and losses. So he revealed that players like Nikolay Davydenko and David Nalbandian pushed him to his best.
Aazaan and Boris’ questions perfectly capture the spirit of Ljubicic Tennis Academy. Our young players are dedicated, curious, and hungry to learn from the greats.
