John Posey Interview

Wednesday, September 21, 2022 • Duration 02:00:09

On the 110th episode of the GreatBase Tennis podcast, Steve Smith has a conversation with John Posey.

Posey was the kid that every tennis program needs. He was cut from his college tennis team and returned a year later after having dedicated endless hours to improve and, fortunately, earned a spot in line-up.

One of the best compliments for parents to hear is that their kid is low maintenance. Google low maintenance and a photo of Posey should pop up. His shoulder bag was a garbage bag. He would hit balls until both his shoes and socks had holes and his toes were bleeding. On his day off, he would hit the backboard from sun-up to sun-down.

To make an understatement, we feel our listeners can find great value by listening to Steve and John reminisce.

On the 108th episode of the GreatBase Tennis (GBT) podcast, Steve Smith and Austin Krajicek have a tennis conversation. The two have known each other for twenty-five years. A couple of weeks before Austin turned 8 years old, Steve produced a narrated slow-motion analysis for Austin and his parents, Rob and Sherry. Austin was on his way to a national event (Little Mo). Steve suggested that the family wait until they return from the tournament for Austin to begin the process to re-building his technical base.

To make an understatement, Austin has an extremely impressive resume. He is a Kalamazoo (US national 18's) champion, a six time All-American, a member of the Texas A & M Hall of Fame and a US Olympian. In singles, Austin earned a top 100 ranking. In doubles, he currently is ranked 15 in the world. Most recently, he and his partner (Ivan Dodig) reached the French Open finals.

We are confident that our audience will thoroughly enjoy listening to this podcast. Austin certainly knows his way around the tennis world and has an abundance of tennis and life experiences to share.

Ed Weiss Interview

Wednesday, August 17, 2022 • Duration 01:40:46

On the 105th episode of the GreatBase Tennis podcast, Steve Smith interviews Ed Weiss.

To make an understatement, Ed is a passionate and dedicated student of tennis. He shares his experiences from his lifetime journey in tennis. He learned the game from accomplished instructors and observed others. Ed was part of a national championship program as a college player and was honored as an All-American. He has had an instrumental role in building a program for underprivileged children, coached high school tennis, read hundreds of tennis books and written a fabulous book on Welby Van Horn.

With great humility, Ed wondered why I would want to interview him? After talking with Mr. Weiss on the phone for years and then working with his associates and him in Connecticut, I knew his story would be enjoyable for our listeners and that his wisdom would prove to be more golden nuggets for one's tennis treasure chest.
