Frequently Asked Questions

Jeff Salzenstein is the Founder of Tennis Evolution, a former Top 100 ATP singles and doubles player, two-time All-American and national champion at Stanford, USTA High Performance Coach, USPTA Elite Professional, and lead consultant for RacquetFit.

It all started when Jeff’s dad got him started playing tennis at just 4 years old.

Jeff has always been — and still is — a very curious player. One of his coaches from his teenage years, Brian Sullivan, still says that Jeff asked more questions than any student he’s ever had.

When Jeff won the National Championships at 12 years old, world-renowned sports psychologist Dr. Jim Loehr said Jeff was “the smartest 12-year-old tennis player” he’d ever seen.

But despite all of that, Jeff was never supposed to play pro tennis. He was the #1 junior player in America at age 12, but his ranking dropped by the time he turned 15. He was still a scrawny kid while his opponents had gotten bigger and stronger.

Instead of quitting, Jeff doubled down. By the time he was 18, he had climbed back up to #2 in the country. That’s when things started to really take off.

• He transformed his serve into a 125 mph weapon in less than two months.
• He won two national team titles playing for Stanford University.
• He was named an All-American two years in a row.
• He became team captain and leader of the team his junior and senior year.
• He achieved his lifelong dream of playing on the ATP pro tour.

Jeff’s career as an ATP pro was not all smooth sailing. By the time he was 25, he had suffered two major injuries that took him out of action for almost two years.

Through seeking out true experts, including serve guru John Yandell, strategy expert Craig O’Shannessy, and others, Jeff discovered the pro-level tactics that work in the heat of battle — not just in theory.

He went on to become the first American to break into the ATP Top 100 after the age of 30.

Many of Jeff’s students use these same methods to raise their game by one, two, and even three levels in less than six months through Tennis Evolution training.

At age 33, Jeff retired from pro tennis because of a mysterious health condition, which is now thankfully sorted. He also wanted to be closer to family and support a family member who was struggling with drug addiction at the time.

Jeff began coaching tennis in his hometown of Denver, Colorado, where he quickly became known as the “pied piper” of junior tennis coaching in Colorado.

As Jeff honed his craft and developed his system, he began thinking about how he could reach players around the world with his effective, out-of-the-box training methods. That was the beginning of Tennis Evolution.

Jeff published his first coaching video on YouTube in 2010, released his first forehand training program in 2011, and has been helping players around the world improve their tennis ever since.

Tennis Evolution shares the methods Jeff discovered and developed over his 11-year pro career and more than a decade of coaching players of all ages and abilities — from complete beginners to ATP and WTA professionals.

Jeff is also the lead consultant for RacquetFit, a certification program for tennis coaches, fitness trainers, and medical professionals focused on the Body-Tennis Connection™.
