No one can match Al Parker’s junior career … a national champion 25 times and ranked No. 1 in Boys’ 12s, 14s, 16s and 18s from 1981-86. He reminisces about playing at the University of Georgia, which hosted and won NCAA Championships in the 1980s.
“We were definitely a force,” the four-time All-American said. He has been inducted into three Halls of Fame, including the Southern Hall of Fame in 2010. He rose to No. 261 on the ATP Tour but his career was limited by a back injury sustained in college.
Listen to Parker as he shares how he’s applied what he learned as a top junior and collegiate player to his daily personal and professional life.
Talking Tennis Southern Style is hosted by Georgia’s own Sam Crenshaw of 92.9 “The Game” Atlanta sports radio, Sports Anchor/Reporter at Atlanta 69 News at 8 as well as a broadcaster for Georgia State athletics.
