People get together while exercising. Patrick Mouratoglou, long-time coach of Serena Williams, thinks something like that. And almost as long as a consultant to the Cori Gauff team, who won their first tournament on the WTA tour in Linz this autumn. With two supervisors from the Mouratoglou Academy at her and her father's side.
At the moment, however, the French coach is back at work - as part of the "Mouratoglou Preseason". Where Williams and Gauff, but also ex-boxing world champion Mike Tyson or aspiring Holger Rune, junior winner at the French Open, are trimming each other.
Training is not only on the tennis court, the fitness hall is also used. Coach and influencer Shaun T is responsible for the choreography.
For Serena Williams, the coming season is once again marked by 24: The American is missing a Grand Slam title on Margaret Court's record, the first attempt is at the Australian Open. There Serena 201 won her last major so far.
