Scott Murphy

Scott Murphy is from Marin County, California where he started playing tennis at age 5 in a family of tennis nuts. Both of his parents were major influences in his development. He also took lessons from Marin legend Hal Wagner and former top 10, Harry Roach.

He's a graduate of the University of California at Berkeley where he played baseball and football but continued to work on his tennis game with the renowned coach Chet Murphy.

Scott is a long standing member of the USPTA and for 20 years has been the head pro at the San Domenico School/Sleepy Hollow Tennis Club in San Anselmo, California. In addition, he directs the Nike Tahoe Junior and Adult Tennis Camps at the Granlibakken Resort in Tahoe City, California.

An avid player, Scott has been highly ranked in the NorCal senior division in both singles and doubles. 

His passion for the game and a long friendship with John Yandell have made writing for TennisONE a perfect
fit.
