US College Signings and General College Chat 2021/22


Says his Dad is a 3 time Olympic swimming champion and he , Giacomo attended Eton, so he must have some money behind him to afford to pay for a US education without any scholarship.

Paolo Revelli was director of Morgan Stanley for ages, and now has some investment firm - I think it's safe to say there's a fair bit of money there

Great that Giacomo is continuing his tennis and doing well, he's got some good qualities.

However, he did do a US tennis scholarship video:

So wonder why that didn't happen?

I read every word of that - I really like to see the 'old' names one hasn't seen for a while.

And the new ones, settling in - Sally Pethybridge, for instance, played some very impressive tennis here in June.

The other benefits of the tennis at US college route:

pbs.twimg.com/media/FCy6cGiXoAMmE6H

Ben Stride only ever got a little ATP ranking, but with only average A levels, his US college scholarship allowed him to go to a top uni, save fees, get accepted for a PhD at a top uni in the UK and he's now thinking of becoming an environmental consultant.

Well done to him !
