Joel Myers

Joel Myers is a USPTA Elite Professional, a former college standout from Australia, and one of the most respected tennis minds in the game today. Based in San Diego, he works with top junior players daily while also consulting with some of the best players in the world. In our view, Joel is easily among the top 10 coaches globally—a coach who combines deep technical expertise with a modern, practical approach that translates at every level. Joel’s content on CoachLife covers everything from the first two shots that decide most points to return targets and grip setups, as well as the finer details of both two-handed and one-handed backhands. He breaks down slice technique, court positioning, net clearance, and the smartest approach strategies, always providing clear, high-percentage solutions players can use immediately. He is equally focused on mindset, showing why performance-based goals drive long-term growth more than results alone. His serve and return drills are some of the most creative and effective you’ll find anywhere, blending coiling, toss accuracy, targeting, and match-like pressure simulations. Joel also emphasizes advanced tactical layers such as serve-and-volley surprise plays, the “two-ball passing” strategy for defending against approaches, and how to build points by attacking the backhand side. With a massive global following online and a reputation as a forward-thinking coach trusted by elite players, we’re proud to host Joel’s first full online course on CoachLife—with much more to come as we continue filming with him.
