Wayne Ferreira to work with Lloyd Harris
Two-time Australian Open semi-finalist Wayne Ferreira is set to work with young gun and rising South African tennis star Lloyd Harris.
Recently breaking into the Top-100, Harris is in the Second Round of the Delray Beach Open.
"I think it’s amazing. Obviously Kevin (Anderson) is our stalwart and he’s doing great and he’s grounded and everything," Ferreira said. “But we always have to look for the new generation of kids coming in. It’s always important to have somebody doing well to inspire the younger generations.”
"Lloyd is very, very good. He’s a great kid, a good tennis player and I think he’s going to be very good."
Set to give this new partnership a trial run for the upcoming two weeks, they will look at the results before thinking about making this partnership permanent.
"He’s incredible. The things he reached in tennis, the amount tournaments he won. He was one of the best players ever from South Africa and I think I’ve been learning a lot from him the couple of days he’s been around," Harris said of Ferreira.
"He’s a really nice guy and it’s also nice that he’s a fellow South African. I think he can give me a lot of good advice and small mental tips, small tennis tips that can really help me a lot," Harris further added about his interim coach.
