Abdelrahman Zaki - Tennis Coach

About Me

Tennis has been my life’s passion since childhood, and I’ve had the privilege to experience the sport at the highest levels both as a player and as a coach. As a player, I represented my national team, achieved a top-300 ITF junior world ranking, and competed at a high-level NCAA Division 1 college program. These experiences shaped my understanding of what it takes to succeed in elite tennis — technically, physically, and mentally.

As a coach, I bring over 12 years of experience developing athletes from promising juniors to ATP/WTA professionals. My journey has taken me across the world, working with national teams, NCAA Division 1 programs, and internationally ranked juniors. I believe in creating a high-performance culture built on discipline, tactical intelligence, and mental resilience, while also fostering an environment where players feel supported and inspired.

Career highlights include leading Tulane University Men’s Tennis to a Top-30 NCAA ranking, coaching Egypt’s National Team, and developing multiple ITF Top 100 juniors who went on to succeed in college and professional tennis. In 2025, I was honored by the USTA for my work with Louisiana’s top juniors

With 12+ years of international high-performance coaching, I currently serve as United States Tennis Association – Louisiana Top Juniors Coach. My experience includes coaching ATP/WTA players, ITF Top-100 juniors, and leading four NCAA Division I teams with athletes ranked inside the ITF Top 100.

As a former ITF Top-300 junior, national team player, and NCAA Division I competitor, I bring elite playing experience and a proven record of producing champions, NCAA scholarship athletes, and internationally ranked players.

An American with Middle Eastern roots, I understand the Gulf region’s culture and values, enabling me to integrate seamlessly while elevating your tennis program’s professional standard.
