My role at Tennis365 is focused on exclusive interviews and breaking major tennis stories. This was highlighted by our agenda-setting interview with International Tennis Integrity Agency CEO Karen Moorhouse, which was widely referenced amid the numerous doping controversies in tennis, including the cases involving Jannik Sinner and Iga Swiatek. I am a highly experienced tennis and football writer who has operated at the top of the sporting industry for the last 30 years. After starting my career working with the Football Association and Wembley Stadium, I have gone on to work for ESPN and Yahoo Sports and Ireland's Sunday World and Irish Independent newspapers. After moving into tennis in 2018, I have interviewed with the biggest names in the sport from Novak Djokovic to Andy Murray, while also working at Wimbledon in the media seats over the past two decades. My work with the LTA included planning and executing of the English summer grass court tournaments in 2022, as I built up a huge network of contacts in the sport.
