Alexis Klegou
I am a 33 years Old French born Beninese former ATP player and tennis coach who is still active as a Davis Cup player for Benin. After studying psychology and playing for Texas A&M University, a top 10 Division 1 school in United States, I was able to play on the professional circuit at age 24. At age 25 I quickly started to balance out my schedule with sparing and coaching experiences while competing mainly in money tournaments and league matches around the world . In the past 7 years I have accumulated experiences as a coach on the ITF/ATP circuit with various players, and in different Academies and clubs around Europe. Most recently I have been working as a private coach with young professional players and young junior players. I am very passionate about the game and I am looking forward to help players to get better on and off court.
