Last month while I was at the North Miami Beach Futures, I had an opportunity to interview Ricardas Berankis of Lithuania, the ITF World Junior Champion in 2007. Although Berankis signed with IMG and is not going to be playing college tennis, many of his insights into the game and its levels seemed appropriate for The Tennis Recruiting Network's audience. For the interview, click here.
TCU has been placed on two years of probation by the NCAA for infractions discovered while Joey Rive was head coach of the men's team. The details of the violations and the penalties were announced today on the NCAA website.
Another feature on six-year-old Jan Silva was released today on abc.com with the notation that it will air tonight on Nightline. There isn't anything new here that wasn't in Tom Perotta's Tennis Magazine piece, but those of you who would like more visuals than the YouTube clips out there might be interested in tuning in. I had hoped to see him myself when he was in Tampa, working with Steve Smith last month, but I missed him by a day or two. I guess it doesn't matter to TV that Tracy Austin's name is misspelled in this story, but they probably will get a few letters if they don't correct the Boris Becker error. Michael Chang is the youngest male to win a Grand Slam, not Becker.
