They instilled in me from a very early age the importance of pursuing a quality education even amidst my journey towards becoming a professional tennis player. Education is the foundation for success, and it’s something that stays with you forever. It has been such a fun experience partnering with Bold.org — so much so, that I’ve decided to make The Doc & Glo Scholarship an annual scholarship!”
