Podcast exercise can reveal some nuggets. Daren Cahill, Australian coach emeritus, took part in the game with our colleagues from Racquet Magazine, reference magazine.
Daren explains with a lot of humor how he finally decided against his wife’s advice to agree to coach André Agassi while his partner dreamed that he was taking care of Marat Safin.
It was all the more possible since the Russian player had asked him just before the Kid’s in Las Vegas. “Agassi is old and he waddles like a duck” Victoria had explained to convince her husband, before praising the merits of Marat: “This guy is so hot, so hot! My friends and I have tickets for all of his games. You have to take this job! “.
In the end Daren avoided the “worst” and preferred to sign with André.
His choice was the right one because it notably enabled Agassi to win the Australian Open in 2003, it will be the 8th and last Grand Slam title for the American.
