“Chris is one of the few people whom I have met who has been able to illustrate a deep understanding of the factors driving the structure of tennis at the highest level. A fully independent thinker, he has constantly impressed me with his insightful analysis and original thinking of the game.”
Ivan Lendl
Former World Number One
"Chris Lewis has long impressed me. He was a great player, but even more, Chris is a devout student of the game, eternally curious and engaged. Many people who’ve accomplished as much as Chris did as a player merely seek to transfer the data they learned and pass it on to others. Not Chris. He wants to know what others think and is constantly reassessing what works, what doesn’t and what might work in the future. All of that will greatly aid anyone player who comes in contact with the Brymer Lewis Tennis Academy – a spirit of persistent learning, growth and enjoyment in this sport we love so much."
Joel Drucker, Tennis Channel and historian-at-large, International Tennis Hall of Fame
