ITF Pro Circuit meets... Christian Harrison
Following his maiden singles title win on the ITF Pro Circuit, Christian Harrison took part in our Q&A. Read on to find out more about this up and coming young American player such as, who was his favourtie player, which players skills would make up his super player and why will he always remember the opening point of his US Open doubles quarterfinal?
ITF Pro Circuit: Can you tell us where were you born and maybe describe the area where you grew up?
Christian Harrison: I was born in Shreveport, Louisiana and I grew up playing tennis at the country club where my Dad worked and taught tennis.
Do any other members of your family play sport?
My Dad played college tennis and professionally for a short period and my brother, Ryan, is currently ranked 57 on the ATP World Tour. We have a younger sister who is in high school and plays tennis as well.
So how did you get started in tennis?
I got started because my Dad was a former player and tennis coach and when we were little, my brother and I used to love to go to work with him and just hang out at the country club all day. As soon as we were big enough to hold a racquet we were hitting balls against the wall in Shreveport, Louisiana.
What can you tell us about your current coach?
My coach is my Dad, Pat Harrison. We have a great relationship and really enjoy being on court together. He has coached me ever since I was little and works with me at the IMG Bollettieri Tennis Academy.
Who were/are your tennis idols?
Growing up I always loved watching Pete Sampras.
What is your greatest tennis memory either as a player or as a fan?
So far my greatest memory was reaching the Quarterfinals of the US Open Doubles with my brother this past summer. It was the first time we played together at the pro level and our first time playing together in a Grand Slam. It was so much fun and the crowd support was amazing for every match. I hope we can win the title one day.
In your opinion, what would you say are the best and worst aspects of being a professional tennis player?
I think the best aspect of being a professional tennis player is that it is an individual sport and you don’t have to rely on anyone else. All the responsibility is on your own shoulders to do everything correct to prepare, play and win or lose. I think the worst part for me is the travelling and long days of being on the road.
So far in your career, what has been the nicest ITF Pro Circuit venue that you have played at?
All of the venues I have played at in Florida have been pretty nice. I live in Florida so it is not a big adjustment and I feel pretty comfortable there.
