Philip Artus

I am a Brit living in the North Carolina mountains. After retiring from my business ventures in the UK and Canada in 2018, my family and I relocated to my wife's home state. Since then, I have been able to follow my passion - Tennis! Having played since I was knee-high to a grasshopper, I took the leap and qualified as a USPTA certified professional in 2019. I have been coaching ever since - and love it. I work with college-bound, high-performance juniors, as well as adults of all abilities and beginners of all ages. I also compete regularly in USTA/UTR singles and doubles tournaments.

In 2022, I got the Pickleball bug. I soon became an active tournament player, competing at a 4.5+ level. I became a USPTA certified Pickleball Professional in April 2023.
