"I have known Lee for the last 4 years. During this time, I have had the opportunity to observe many of the players he has developed. He has proven his ability to develop players of all ages and help them navigate the many challenges that competitive tennis players face. He is passionate in his work and demonstrates refreshing creativity, while also maintaining a keen sense of the simplicity of tennis at the highest level. Lee has been a great help in developing US junior tennis players and I look forward to working with him more in the future."
Jose Higueras (Director of USTA Coaching Education/ATP Tour Coach of Federer, Sampras, Courier and more)
"A great architect builds a house with a strong foundation, with a style that is efficient and appropriate for the land upon which it is built… Lee Hurst accomplishes this as a tennis coach. He begins by building a strong foundation with footwork and body positioning. He is uncompromising with respect to technique while developing a style that is best for each individual student. His students can be confident that he will help them develop what they need to reach their potential in tennis.
I've experienced what it took to become a top ten player in the world. I’m now a “tennis mom” and also appreciate a parent’s desire for selecting what’s best for one’s child.
Lee Hurst is the tennis coach for my son – the ultimate testimonial of my confidence and trust in Lee!"
Kathleen Horvath (USTA High Performance Instructor, Former top 10 WTA player)
"Since working with Lee I do a better job of staying in the present. I move quicker on the court. I've learned to try and wear down my opponents by hitting the ball heavy, using variety, and just being physically fitter than them. I use more angles and don't just smack the ball every time like I used to."
Kristie Ahn, 17 (Stanford University, WTA# 300-US Open Qualifier)
"There is more small group training and the training is more directed on individual needs. The coaches show a caring and posititive attidude on court and create a motivating atmosphere. Drilling is set and altered for every players personal need. I have learned how to develop points according to my game style. I have learned more ways to hurt my opponent through variation and placement."
Jessica Stiles, 18 (Duke University, -#1 18's Eastern Section)
