With a Master’s degree in Coaching and Teaching and 25 years of hands-on experience, I have developed a strong expertise in player development, performance psychology, and contemporary training methods. My qualifications include several coaching certifications, and I have guided athletes at every stage—from beginners to advanced competitors (ATP players). I am passionate about tennis and interested in every aspect of the sport. From the age of 14 to 18, I attended tactical and psychological training, which helped me raise my tennis level by four tiers/levels.

About Me
My father coached ATP and WTA players (Kučera ATP No. 6, Studenikova WTA No. 31), and since I was in close contact with them from an early age, observing how the best players train at the biggest tournaments, I gained invaluable insights that I still apply today.
I have been playing tennis since the age of 5 and competing in tournaments since I was 9. In my junior category, I ranked among the top 4 players in Slovakia and regularly participated in international tournaments. My highest ranking in the Slovak men’s category was No. 15. I played ATP Futures and Satellites for some time, but due to health reasons, I had to stop earlier. Currently, I am fully fit and actively competing in the Austrian Tennis League in 2025 (ITN 2.0), including the 35+ Bundesliga as well as men’s league matches. At my peak, I reached an ATP level of around 800.
In addition, I occasionally participate in billiard tennis tournaments. I hold a university degree in Banking, which enables me to follow developments in financial markets and invest actively. I also enjoy reading books on personal development, traditional Chinese medicine, and similar topics.

My dream is to coach professional players at the highest level and prepare them mentally, tactically, and technically to win. Many players have excellent technical skills, but their mindset fails during matches. This is an area where I have extensive experience and can make a significant impact—just as mental and tactical training helped me at the age of 14, when I went from being an average player to competing among the best.
