Fantastic podcast!
I was recommend this podcast by another tennis parent and so very grateful they did. It’s inspiring, educational and supportive. I look forward to each episode as they all come filled with golden nuggets. A vital podcast for parents to help them navigate the tennis world.

Very insightful
As a tennis lover and parent, have enjoyed this podcast. All the guests and the topics addressed are right on the spots. Tennis is a lovely sport but easily get lost in. Holding a clear and appreciate approach to it is one of the ways to keep enjoying it and ride on the journey. Thanks very much.

Top Tennis podcast in my view
This is the best Tennis podcast imho which I discovered during Lockdown, and have replaced the Tennis Podcast with as it covers all aspects of tennis from players, coaches, commentators, US colleges, tournament administrators, psychology and (if I’m still allowed to say this) the mental toughness required to succeed in elite sport. Inciteful, enlightening and educational. 🎧 🎾

Wow! What a moving podcast.
Episode 39 with Joe Dixon was so moving that I had to listen to it twice. Many thoughts and words I have experienced and I thought I was alone. The Tennis Coach’s life is unique and very few ‘outsiders’ understand what it encompasses. Thank you Joe for opening up.

Great to listen to educational all round
Started listening to this in the 1st lockdown and just got back to it now. It is so useful for everyone to learn about not just tennis but how competitive sport can be. It is interesting to listen to all the different sides and approaches, from the players to everyone on the team. Great having Dan’s impartial approach, great addition, the post podcast talks too. Txs for starting and keeping this going!

Fascinating Conversations…
I was recently introduced to CTC and now I’m addicted.. picking out tennis favourites to hear their stories has become my favourite thing to do! Just listened to Mark Petchey, so understated for someone so knowledgeable, and it’s been great to hear from some of the doubles players like Des and Alexa, Joe and the Skupskis, and the legend that is Louis Cayer! Dan is a great host, engaging and with his own insightful take on this amazing sport… can’t wait to keep listening! Keep up the great work Dan and thank you!

Loving the listen
I think the Ali Filmer podcast might be my new favourite. So much to take from it. I’m lucky enough to have seen Ali at work and he delivers on all the areas he talks about. Great coach and team at Dukes.

Addictive
Loving this podcast . Dan’s voice holds the attention and I love the honesty he gets back from his guests . Just love that the people on the podcast love tennis as much as me as not a lot of my friends or family know anything about it 🤣well done and much appreciated when walking the dog or gardening

Loved it!
This is my first ever review. The latest pod is just fabulous, I felt I was listening in to a group of people having a chat about their past experiences at Wimbledon. It was honest, authentic and engrossing. I love the variety Dan brings to every pod. Really a great listen. Thank You!

Honestly I am genuinely upset when I finish an episode knowing I have to wait for more. Make my car journeys to London and back for work enjoyable and so many learnings taken away each time. Great host and love the genuine care and attention to each guest.

Relatable outside of the tennis world
I’m a tennis fan and a tennis parent but I take away so many learnings from these podcasts and apply them to my day job and overall mindset!

Great chats and insight
Top work Dan! Your podcasts have been such a big part of getting through the past year. It’s been a challenge for everyone and I think I can say for most people involved in the Tennis world your chats have helped keep us motivated and inspired through the year. You do so well to get more of an insight rather than a Q&A podcast and makes for great content. Keep up the great work and I look forward to seeing when you get Sir Andy on haha. Lots of great pods but I’d probably have to say Joe Dixon’s and Dan Evans are the top 2.

Unmissable
Can’t believe I’ve only just discovered this podcast. As a tennis fanatic it is brilliant to have such a professionally done show with high quality guests being interviewed so well. Just listened to the Borna Coric interview and it is excellent. Brilliant questions and what a special guy Borna is. Now binging my way through all episodes! Thank you.

Absolutely brilliant for Tennis fans
The control the controllables podcast gives listeners such a great, informal insight into Tennis across all aspects of the pro game. The Nick Bollettieri interview has been my fav. to date. Keep up the fantastic insightful interviews.

Best tennis podcast out there
Love this podcast, brilliant blend of education snd entertainment and exposing areas of tennis we might not otherwise see. I like Dan’s style of bringing stories out from guests and also sharing his own experiences. Great job!

Fantastic Podcast
This podcast is loved by our tennis parents, players and coaches alike. There is something for everyone and is always thought provoking and often explores areas of the sport that aren’t covered regularly elsewhere. Couldn’t recommend highly enough- keep up the good work!

Great listening to a wide mix of people from the tennis world
I’ve really enjoyed listening to peoples different journeys through the tennis world . Great insights that the normal tennis fan may never hear without these podcasts . During another lockdown these podcasts help to keep motivation and to switch off for a while . Keep up the good work 👍

Control the Controllables
Brilliantly insightful interviews. A must listen for parents and younger players. So much to take away but also just some really entertaining content! Had made lockdown walks so much more enjoyable!

A podcast growing into itself
This podcast gets better and better with every episode. Dan is a great interviewer, and more so than most, pushes the interviewees, makes the conversation personal and asks the questions that you want to ask yourself. The guests get better and better and the back catalogue is worth a listen. If you like the tennis podcast, you will like this!

Episode 92 Justin- wow
So refreshing to hear from someone who doesn’t pander, says it as it is but has the best interest of players and the sport at heart. Really interesting guy and I am sure has many more stories to tell. Excellent interview technique as usual Dan

So Interesting
Listened to a few of these now, really good questioning, would love hear one from club coaches on how we get more kids in to playing tennis and retaining there interest.

Control the controllable review
This is a great podcast. So many knowledgeable guests that piece together thousands of years of tennis experience and the behaviours and traits that led to their success. Dan Kiernan does a fabulous job of unpacking the mindset of an elite performer in sports and life. Get your note pad ready because there are so many nuggets in here.
