About

I have been working with the French Tennis Federation for the past four years as a journalist and a translator.
As a French native with an American mother, I managed to make extensive travels between the United States and France, so have the luxury of knowing both cultures very well. I'm also in love with tennis, which I have been following since the age of five.
My passion boost me to work for Eurosport Cable network in Paris, as well as The French Tennis Federation, which helped me improve in my skills.
I also had the luxury of working with the USTA for the 2010 US Open.

The match lasted 11 hours 5 minutes and totalled 183 games. The final set alone lasted 8 hours 11 minutes.

    I didn't see a way to write private message so I'll write it here. I see you work at Eurosport. Do you know Maxence Behar or Glenn Ceillier? They are related to me.

    I'm also the opposite of you. I'm an American native with a French mother.

    Hey Gregory,

    I've just posted a story about the global evolution of tennis and the increasing popularity of the sport. I've put a lot of time and effort into it, and I'd be really grateful to get any feedback you have.

    If you get a chance to check it out, that would be great.

    Hey Gregory,

    Roger Federer was pushed to the limit in round 2 against Gilles Simon. I've deconstructed his performance and evaluated why Simon was able to get back into the game. If you get a chance, I'd love to hear your thoughts.
