Tomislav Poljak - Agent & Tournament Director

The Functional Tennis Podcast

Tennis agent & tournament director of the Croatia Open in Umag, Tomislav Poljak joins us for Episode 115!

Tomislav is part of Starwing - a boutique sports management agency that represents top tennis players. Alongside his role as an agent, he oversees tournament operations of the ATP 250 clay-court event in Umag 😃

We talk:

• Day to day life as an agent
• Signing junior talent
• What he looks for in players
• Running the Croatia Open in Umag
• Securing top talent to play in Umag

We rarely get the chance to talk to tournament directors the podcast, so to get some insight into the running of a top level tennis event from Tomislav was particularly interesting.

Let us know what you think!
