We talk to Alex De Minaur ahead of the Australian Open in Melbourne 🇦🇺
Alex has already won an ATP title in 2021 and is in great form going into his rematch against Rafael Nadal at the ATP Cup & as his home slam approaches 🔥
We talk playing Rafa, Asics Tennis Shoes, how he got his nickname, playing against his mentor, Lleyton Hewitt & his friendship with Nick Kyrgios 😃
Â
Asics understands the importence of movement and the positive impact it has on our mental wellbeing. It also is committed to the Japanese principle of "Kaizen" or continuous improvement.
Our motto at Functional Tennis is to get 1% Better Everyday and we believe this makes a great partnership with Asics.
Also it has the best tennis shoes in the game 😉
