Gigi Fernandez is one of the most successful doubles players in the history of the WTA Tour, but before she became known for her doubles mastery, she was joining her family on court growing up in Puerto Rico.
On the island, she carved a path to play through determination, eventually becoming a collegiate champion and turned professional. Following her playing career, she became a sought-after coach in both skills and mental toughness. In today's episode, she reveals insight on positive self-talk, improvements to make to your game, and her greatest achievements.
Gigi Fernandez is a 17-time Grand Slam champion in doubles, which she captured alongside three different Hall of Famers. She is a two-time Olympic Gold medalist for the United States in doubles (1992, 1996), and owns 69 career doubles titles. She was inducted into the Hall of Fame alongside doubles partner Natasha Zvereva in 2010.
