On the 74th episode of The GreatBase Tennis Podcast, Steve Smith and Brandon Flanagan interview one of the best teachers of character that our game has ever known. Our three hour discussion, in my opinion, should become a mandatory assignment for anyone connected to player development. Just the sayings from Chuck Kris's late mother are worth their weight in gold. A wide range of topics are covered and perhaps, the one Chuck addresses the most, is the pitfalls of shortening the scoring system in tennis. If you are not already a Chuck Kriese fan, we think you will be after listening to our interview with him.
