Remembering Hall of Famer Fred Stolle

Chris Bowers hosts special episode of the TennisWorthy Podcast as we pay tribute to Australian tennis legend Fred Stolle, who passed earlier this week at 86. In an interview recorded at Roland Garros in 2018, Fred reflects on his remarkable career—his rise from humble beginnings, Grand Slam triumphs, clashes with the legendary Harry Hopman, and his transition into coaching and broadcasting. With candid storytelling and sharp insights, this episode recognizes one of tennis’s greats. Fred Stolle was a 19-time major champion, amateur world No. 1 and Australian Davis Cup standout. He was inducted into the Hall of Fame in 1985.
