I am a Journalist covering tennis for Tennis365 and Planet Sport. My role involves interviewing the top stars in tennis, working with governing bodies and major sponsors to promote the sport and breaking agenda setting stories in tennis. This was highlighted by our agenda-setting interview with International Tennis Integrity Agency CEO Karen in December 2024, which was widely referenced amid the numerous doping controversies in tennis, including the cases involving Jannik Sinner and Iga Swiatek. I started my journalism career with Wembley Stadium, writing match programmes for international matches and major finals between 1994 and 2000. Since then, I have worked for ESPN for 16 years, Yahoo Sports and for the Irish Independent and Sunday World in Ireland. This has seen me break some huge stories across a variety of sports, including the world exclusive revealing Virgil van Dijk's move from Southampton to Liverpool in 2018. I was born in London and have BA Honours degree in Media Production. LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/kevin-palmer-88b16620/ X: https://x.com/RealKevinPalmer
