Sydney Sawyer
A recent graduate of North Central College, Sydney Sawyer has always had a passion for the game of tennis. Starting her playing career at four years old, she played both USTA and High School tennis before ultimately ending her playing career at the collegiate levels, where she helped lead the North Central Women’s tennis teams to back-to-back conference championship titles and multiple NCAA appearances. Sydney now hopes to turn her passion for the sport into a full-time career as she dreams of becoming a sports agent one day. Working multiple internships within the sports and entrainment industries - including her current role as intern for SportsPlus, a tennis marketing and event consulting firm, she has thoroughly enjoyed every chance she has had to learn from the very best in the business.
An avid listener of the Cracked Racquets Podcast Network, Sydney looks forward to the opportunity to connect and cover tennis of all levels for the worldwide tennis community.
Richard Maj
Richard is a sophomore double majoring in broadcast & digital journalism and psychology at Syracuse University. He first got into tennis at seven after watching a match with his dad and instantly fell in love with the sport. He quickly realized that tennis was something he knew he wanted to be involved in for the rest of his life.
Most recently, he’s been coaching juniors over the last two years and he co-hosts the Bagels and Breadsticks podcast. His favorite player is Iga Swiatek.
