The Sit-Down with Sandra Zaniewska

from The Sit-Down · host Tennis Australia

This week Viv and Matt bring you their chat with Sandra Zaniewska, notable for being one of the few women coaching at the elite level on the professional tour. Zaniewska, a former pro player from Poland, transitioned into coaching when she began an informal partnership with friend and fellow pro Petra Martic. The 33-year-old has gone on to coach multiple WTA players and now works with Marta Kostyuk, the rising Ukrainian star who under Zaniewska's guidance has risen as high as world No.16 and this week will feature in the fourth round of the Madrid Open. In this reflective interview Zaniewska discusses her career path, her coaching philosophy, who helped her get to this point, her nomadic existence and how she sees the game today.  Listen to the Sit-Down with Marta Kostyuk here. iHeartSpotifyApple PodcastsPodLinkHost handles:@Viv_Christie@MattyATSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
