Tennis SA’s new high performance director Jeff Coetzee plans to use overseas connections to ensure success.

Having coached South Africa to within a win of getting into the quarterfinals of the inaugural ATP Cup this week, Tennis SA’s new high performance director Jeff Coetzee – who also coaches the world’s top-ranked doubles team of Colombians Robert Farah and Juan Sebastián Cabal – discussed his plans for the sport.It’s obviously to give back to South Africa. I’ve been giving back to the Colombian guys and I’ve been with them for the past six years.

I’ll also start going to the office next month. We do have a plan, and the nice thing about being with the team at the ATP Cup is that, because I’m sitting with the players, they can tell me, as the director of tennis, what they want.Out of the blue, I got a call from one of the guys I coach, Rob Farah. He’d heard my name somewhere and got my number through a friend. It’s been good so far, starting when their ranking was in the 60s to where they are now [first].

I set up a meeting with Tennis Australia, I’ve set up another one with the US Tennis Association and other countries where I have connections.
