The Boss is Here! | Just Slap Podcast #50 (feat. Katrina Adams)

In this 50th episode special, Steven and Alex sit down and talk to the brilliant Katrina Adams. Katrina tells us her story from the very beginning. She recounts how she began tennis in West Chicago and the lessons she learned as she moved up through high school, college, and into the pros. After her pro career Katrina maintained her love and passion for the game and helped build up the sport off of the court. She was appointed as CEO, President and Chairman of the USTA and made history by becoming the first African American, youngest ever, and first individual to be appointed for two terms in the organization's history. Finally, we discuss Katrina's current focuses, which include being the Executive Director of the Harlem Junior Tennis & Education Program and her recent book, Own the Arena. Huge thank you to Katrina for her time and for sharing her wisdom and experiences with us. We hope you enjoy!
