Matt Ebden Interview: The State of Professional Doubles & Where It Might Go
This conversation with Australian Open Champion, Matt Ebden, focuses on the state of professional doubles and where it might go over the next several years.
Helping to make pro doubles more popular is one of my passions and missions for Tennis Tribe and this podcast, so I was excited to chat with Matt about this topic.
Matt is the 3rd ranked doubles player on the ATP tour, a 3-time grand slam champion, and reached a career-high of #39 in singles. He is also on the ATP Player’s Council and involved in many of the meetings that will impact the future of doubles. I asked him to update us on where doubles stands and what needs to happen going forward.
Here’s a bit of what you’ll learn.
- Will we see more mixed doubles tournaments at 1000-level events like Indian Wells did this year?
- What three changes would Matt make if given full reigns of the tour?
- How to perform better mentally during pressure situations on the doubles court.
After having this conversation, I’m optimistic and excited about the future of professional doubles.
