Tennis: “I know this house very well, its strengths, its weaknesses”: Gilles Simon facing his new challenge

Having taken office at the beginning of September as the high performance director of the French Tennis Federation, the former world number six does not want to make a clean slate. At the National Training Center in Paris, he presented his method and philosophy for an hour to a few media, while particularly mentioning French women's tennis in the midst of a crisis and the promises of Moïse Kouame.

His position as Director of High Performance

“I took office at the beginning of September. I always wanted to help French tennis: it was my priority when I stopped. I wanted to bring my vision from the highest level, maintain our strengths and correct our weaknesses. I know the National Training Center well. I have gone through all our federal structures, so it is a system that I know well. I wanted to help because I thought I could be useful in this position and in this mission. “
