Description:

This week we are joined by Katie Spellman, who is an independent PR consultant to two of the most successful players in women's tennis - Simona Halep & Petra Kvitova!

Katie also does some work with tournaments & has previous experience working as part of the WTA as well as woking in journalism.

We talk:

  • What her role involves
  • How she got into tennis
  • Working through the pandemic
  • Australian Open
  • Best of 5

We also talk about the Peng Shuai situation in China, which is particularly relevant at the moment. There is obviously a huge media element to that story so it was great to be able to get Katie's perspective on it!

Let us know what you think!
