CHENNAI: June 22 Tennis legend Vijay Amritraj has urged India’s aspiring players to prioritise singles over doubles, saying the ultimate goal should be to break into the world’s top 50, compete regularly in Grand Slams and win ATP titles rather than merely participate on the tour.
The former world No. 16 said young players must aspire to emulate the achievements of great singles champions such as Roger Federer, Rafael Nadal and Serena Williams, stressing that success in tennis is ultimately measured by rankings, titles and performances at the sport’s biggest events.
“You’re not starting the game of tennis to be the greatest doubles player or the greatest mixed doubles player. You’re starting the game of tennis to be the next Federer or the next Nadal or the next Serena Williams.
