A father’s persistence, a lifelong passion.
From Reluctance to Passion
Tennis wasn’t love at first sight. My dad, a coach, kept encouraging me to play—even when I wasn’t that into it. Slowly, something shifted. The feeling of hitting cleaner shots, moving better, competing. It grew on me. And then, almost without noticing, I was hooked—by something that would shape my life.
Learning to feel the difference.
The Gear Obsession Begins
As I improved, I became fascinated by how gear could affect performance. I started customizing everything—adding lead tape, reshaping grips, experimenting with strings. I wasn’t just playing tennis anymore—I was chasing a feeling. The racquet became part of my identity. And that curiosity became a core part of my game.
Discovering what the pros were hiding.
A Glimpse of the Elite
College tennis in the U.S. was a new level. I faced players from all over the world, and that’s when I first heard about pro stock racquets—elite-level frames made specifically for professionals. It opened my eyes to a whole new dimension of tennis gear.
If only I had known earlier…
The Game-Changing Realization
After college, I got my hands on a real pro stock racquet. Around that time, I also had the chance to train and spar with some of the best players in the world. The difference was mind-blowing—a feeling I’d never experienced before. I couldn’t help but think: "Why wasn’t this available to me earlier?" That’s when Holy Tennis was born—to make this holy grail accessible to everyone.
