Ashlyn Krueger & Robin Montgomery Interview: Tiebreaker Strategy, Hanging Out Off-Court, & Managing ITF vs WTA Schedules

In this episode, we chatted with two rising American WTA stars, Ashlyn Krueger and Robin Montgomery. These two 18-year-olds had just won their R1 match at the ATX Open and we discuss how they adjusted their strategy in the 10-point tiebreaker.

They also recently won an ITF tournament in Orlando, so we ask them what’s been clicking lately. You’ll get some insights into how a team builds chemistry on and off the court as well as how players manage their schedule as they fight to get into the top 100.

We also discuss:

  • What they think makes the other a good doubles partner
  • What boundaries they’ve learned to cross and not cross
  • How their game styles fit together, including why Ashlyn thinks Robin’s “leftiness” helps
  • Their biggest WTA win to date

I expect you’ll be hearing their names more and more in the coming years on the singles and doubles court as they continue to improve.
