About this episode
This is a conversation with Demi Schuurs from the WTA Finals in Cancun. Demi partnered with Desirae Krawczyk and I spoke with her between her first and second matches. We discussed how she spent her days off in Cancun, including her gym routine. I asked her how she's had so much doubles success with different partners. This is her 5th consecutive WTA Finals with four different partners. Demi made a surprise appearance in the singles draw of the WTA 1000 tournament in Guadalajara and she tells us the story of how that happened. Towards the end, we talk about their first match where they lost 9/9 deciding points. She tells me what "playing more aggressively" means to her and analyzes previous matchups against the teams in their group. She actually keeps a notebook that she writes in after each match. A great tip for other doubles players. **Doubles Strategy Courses** These video courses will help you play smarter doubles and make winning easier. 25 Winning Doubles Tactics Video Course: https://the-tennis-tribe.teachable.com/p/25-winning-doubles-tactics League Doubles Training Masterclass Video Course: https://the-tennis-tribe.teachable.com/p/league-doubles-training **Doubles Ebooks** These guides offer proven advice to improve your doubles strategy. 25 Winning Doubles Tactics: https://www.thetennistribe.com/25-winning-doubles-tactics/ Return Strategy for Doubles: https://www.thetennistribe.com/return-strategy-for-doubles-ebook/ Serve Strategy for Doubles: https://www.thetennistribe.com/serve-strategy-for-doubles-ebook/ Net Play Strategy for Doubles: https://www.thetennistribe.com/net-play-strategy-for-doubles-ebook/ *** Download your free doubles guide to learn how to force errors and get more easy volleys at TheTennisTribe.com/doubles-guide/ . *** Tennis Gear reviews : The best racquets, shoes, bags, & more Read our written doubles lessons here Subscribe to our YouTube Channel for video lessons ----- **Join the #1 Doubles Strategy Newsletter for Club Tennis Players** New doubles strategy lessons weekly straight to your inbox **Become a Tennis Tribe Member** Tennis Tribe Members get access to premium video lessons, a monthly member-only webinar, doubles strategy Ebooks & Courses, exclusive discounts on tennis gear, and more.
