It's insane b/c I am an avid tennis player, HUGE tennis fan, and Venus admirer since Day One and I had no idea of what Rick did for their career. I am in awe. I am just amazed at what Rick Macci has done in tennis as a sport and the careers of so many talented, championship players!
Venus admirer from the beginning as well! I Happy to see the props Rick Macci has been getting lately because for some time he wasn’t getting the credit! The movie was amazing, hope you saw it!
@@oo0024 Yeah that was really low of Richard to do that to Rick after rick went above and beyond taking a huge risk if they didn't make it big. I lost respect for Richard Williams after seeing that.
Did Rick see the future or something? 😳 He sure can tell a story and he has earned the right to tell it. Now about these two kids, Venus and Serena? I heard they grew up to be pretty good tennis players. Didn't they win a few tournaments here and there? 😉
Can someone PLEASE direct me to a source where I can learn about the business model around what this man did? It obviously was not "Just coaching", He specifically was in the business to breed the equivalent of a human franchise, which transcended the cliche model of "just" a coach center, aimed at wealthy peoples kids. He specifically paid exuberant amounts of money upfront, in the form of a contract for a time duration, which included: funding moving an entire family of like 7 cross country, putting them up in an Enormous house (big enough for them to each have their own bedroom), ^Paid for cars, paid for siblings schooling (to justify the move), AND covered all utilities in general PLUS allowance for necessities, AND committed to do so for years upon years, via said contract which HE proposed and signed first. All without expectation of any return unless the girls were in a position to earn the opportunity for endorsements. I understand that is the kind of model where, majority of the bets are expected to be misses, but the ones that do land, hit BIG, more than enough to cover the losses. What would such a business model be called and where can I please read up on it at length? ~Thank you
Sounds to me like you pay for everything for them for years and didn’t make as much back as you should have off of them. Sounds to me like Richard made you foot all the bills and deal with all his bullshit.
Funny well. There is a movie about their dad called King Richard. Venus is worth $42 Million and Serena is worth $210 Million. Whatever happen to research? They never left. If you research you will see what their doing. They are doing great things!
