As Serena Williams’ tennis coach for ten years, Patrick Mouratoglou helped to steer her to 10 Grand Slam victories. The Mouratoglou Academy’s mission is to guide young aspiring players towards achieving their full potential. Every year, the Academy hosts 4,000 campers and 200 student-athletes who train vigorously on-site. In 2022, Mouratoglou announced the launch of the first Tennis & School programme in Asia, in collaboration with the prestigious Epsom College in Malaysia. Students enrolled in the programme will fully immerse themselves in Tennis whilst enjoying the best of a British boarding school experience. The complex, only minutes away from Kuala Lumpur, features 11 clay and hard- courts and will host some of the best coaches in the region, trained with the same Mouratoglou methodology applied at the Mouratoglou Academy in France. Alongside the full-time academy, there are also a host of tournaments, camps and short-term programmes curated for budding tennis student-athletes to participate in available throughout the year.
