My Take
What fascinates me about Paul Annacone is his rare second act. A capable touring pro in his own right, he found his true calling not in winning titles but in shaping champions, guiding Pete Sampras, Roger Federer, and Sloane Stephens through decisive chapters of their careers. That requires a particular kind of ego, one willing to dissolve itself beside genius. Coaching at that altitude is invisible labor; the credit always flows to the player. Yet his continued work with Taylor Fritz and his thoughtful commentary suggest a man who genuinely loves the craft of the game more than the spotlight. I admire that quiet, durable dedication.
