I am Farid Bentaous, a French international tennis coach based in Marbella, Spain since 2009. With more than 35 years of coaching experience at all levels of the game, I provide my services to tennis players. I am certified by both the French Tennis Federation (FFT) and the Lawn Tennis Association (LTA) in Great Britain.

Throughout my career, I have had the privilege of working with numerous professional players, including several Top 100 ATP players, such as Nicolas Kiefer, former ATP World No. 4, as well as Top 500 WTA players and Top 50 ITF juniors.

For many years, I have travelled extensively on the international professional circuit, spending more than 30 weeks per season coaching at ATP, WTA and ITF tournaments, as well as at all four Grand Slam tournaments: the Australian Open, Roland-Garros, Wimbledon and the US Open.

As a coach, I have achieved victories over some of the biggest names in tennis, including Roger Federer, Pete Sampras, Yevgeny Kafelnikov, Marcelo Ríos and Grigor Dimitrov, among others. I have also had the honour of serving as a coach of the Tunisian Davis Cup team, gaining valuable experience in international team competition and high-pressure environments.

Alongside my professional coaching career, I have many years of experience working with players of all ages and levels, from beginners to advanced and competitive athletes. I have coached adults and juniors in France, the UK and Spain, adapting my approach to each player’s individual needs and goals.
