Coaches and tennis players of all levels tell their success with the
Wegner Method of Modern Tennis Instruction

"Oscar is a great coach. In a few days he helped me regain my strokes and my feel for the ball." Bjorn Borg, 5 time Wimbledon Champion and 6 time French Open Champion

"Wegner strips instruction of all those accepted phrases and directions that only clutter your mind and confuse.....I think you'll find it worthwhile to dump the past and join Oscar in your tennis future. In listening to him I've unlearned a few things myself that I long considered gospel....." Bud Collins, Boston Globe, NBC

"Oscar: ... I have long acknowledged that your teaching methods are light years ahead of those for most teaching professionals in our industry. I also happen to believe that our industry has complicated the learning process for so many players that they become discouraged and leave our sport too quickly. Your ideas simplify matters, and this is crucial." Bill Mountford, Director of Tennis, USTA National Tennis Center, site of the US Open, Flushing Meadows, N.Y.

"Oscar has broken the mold in understanding the modern tennis stroke. In working with him and watching super slo-motion sequences of the top pros, I have seen the genius of Oscar's analysis of their dynamics and technique. He has translated that into effective teaching methodology that is easy and fun to learn from." Andy Rosenberg, Director for NBC Sports Wimbledon and French Open

"I recommend this method to other professionals. With this method we had positive results all over the world." Carlos Alves. Carlos took Oscar to Brazil, learned his methods, and together they developed Guga Kuerten until he was 14, and many other top juniors and young pros, including his daughter Nanda Alves, #1 in Brazil.

"This book (Tennis in Two Hours) describes to a "T" what I felt when I was at the top of my game. It is amazing that Oscar makes it so simple to learn." Martin Mulligan, Wimbledon finalist to Rod Laver in 1962 and three-time Italian Open winner.

Bob Ruzanic, a Pennsylvania tennis coach and former Chairman of the U.S. Davis Cup Committee, said: "this system is amazing, like planting 250 seeds and getting 250 trees. All of the children I teach at the summer camp keep coming back every year, all of them. They learn quickly and they love the sport."

"Oscar's techniques are incredible. Back in 1982 he was with me (coaching) in Germany and the students called him "the American who taught tennis in two hours". Over and over, he had total beginners rallying 40, 60 balls back and forth in just two hours of instruction. He also helped the Weiden Tennis Club have an undefeated junior tennis team that year and get our main team to the Bundesliga." Jurgen Fassbender, former #1 player in Germany and Top Ten player in the world.

"After introducing top juniors to the Wegner Method, I went from unknown coach with zero tournament students to head pro at Dwight Davis, largest public facility in city and home to the St. Louis Aces (Andy Roddick). IN NINE MONTHS! I just smile when coaches try to say your method is just for starters and intermediates, for I have used it with 5.0s and nationally ranked juniors, all amazed at how advanced but still simple to Play Like the Pros really is. Now even coaches take lessons from me, but it's not me, it's your method they want." John Carpenter, Head Pro, Dwight Davis Tennis Center, St. Louis, Missouri

"When my children were very young and just starting to play tennis, Oscar gave them drills that were fun to do. He generated an interest and eagerness for the game so that they wanted to play more, and as a result, they became motivated to play better. Oscar's relaxed style of teaching conveys a sense of comfort and confidence to his students so that they look forward to working with him and can enjoy the consistent improvements that result from his teachings." Vincent Spadea Sr, father of former #4 American and 19th ranked in the world.

"Your teaching method is logical, easily understood, and works. Now I understand why Spain has so many players." Jana Hunsacker, former Director of Tennis, U.S.T.A. National Tennis Center, Flushing Meadows, N.Y., the site of the U.S. Open Championships.

"My team has won three NCAA titles and I have been named NCAA "Coach of the Year" twice. I say this only as a reference point. I was very fascinated with your work and have thought a lot about it since. I plan to use your methodology in my classes. In my pursuit of coaching excellence I was with you on many concepts and yet found many of the things you emphasized quite eye opening." Bob Hansen, Univ. of California Santa Cruz.

"I've been a teaching pro for about 13 years. During that time I've come across many theories (some great and some not so great). I would usually test them in a lesson. If they work, I keep using them. Well, I've been keeping a lot of theories and material from your book and using them daily with my lessons, with great results!" Scott Gilmore, Fort Walton Beach, Florida.

"Your method of simplifying the strokes and teaching beginners to "play like the pros" has benefitted hundreds of New York City school children and the teachers that train them. It's remarkable to see children rallying back and forth 20-70 times within an hour and I love hearing from them that "tennis is easy." Sheri Slobin, Deputy Director of Programs.

"Oscar's method has made my students produce longer rallies and increased their level of excitement for the game. Students quickly develop a better feel for the ball and consistency." David Glackin, coach, New York Junior Tennis League and USTA Area Training coach.

"Oscar, I have thoroughly enjoyed your tapes and book - you have rekindled my passion for tennis and interest in learning as much as possible about this magnificent lifetime sport ." William, Chicago

"I also can’t say enough about your teaching method of practicing volleying against a slanted board from your videos. That has done wonders for my hand eye coordination and reflexes at net." Jerry

"I’d like to thank you making it easy for my students to play tennis. I teach tennis full time at two clubs. Just the other day I had three ladies that I teach rallying back and forth over 40 times from the baseline." Darren

"I have been teaching tennis for about 25 years. I have all five videos. I have convinced many of my friends to follow your methods to teach people to play the game. It has made my life as a tennis teaching pro very easy and extremely fun." Steve

"During the 20 years I have taught tennis, I have researched and used many techniques and methods to make learning easier. Oscar Wegner's insights into the game and innovative techniques are a major breakthrough." Tia Hall, Gainsville.

"Tennis in Two Hours is a remarkable book. I checked it out of the Escondido, California library expecting another run-of-the-mill catalog of strokes ant tips. You have made an impact on my strokes and the way I teach classes and private lessons!" W. Clair Metzger, Jr., Escondido, California

My tennis game has improved a lot since I met you, honestly, I don't follow 100 per cent of what you teach but I took the best of it and it made me a better player. Thanks again." Philippe, tennis coach, actor, Los Angeles, California

"Your teaching methods are so successful that they got me fired from my club--the head pro got jealous. Oh well. But not all is lost. A club across town offered me the head pro position. Your methods are all the buzz in Buffalo!" Andy, tennis coach, Buffalo

"Using your method I've freed up my mind and discovered that there is a lot more time to hit the ball than I thought!" Matt

"I got the tapes and watched them all... I wish I had discovered your stuff 10 years ago! I hit some balls with a buddy of mine yesterday and he said that it was the most consistent he had ever seen me hit and that my balls were all deep. Even the ones that landed at the service line had so much topspin that jumped deep into the court." Jim

"It has made a major difference in my game." JC

"Your system is the BEST!!! It's not only helped my game in a week but I cannot wait to teach another lesson with your techniques!!!" Laurie, tennis coach, Longboat Key, Florida

"I have watched them (the videos) a lot and even when I played tennis for the first time after listening to all your tips - things had already improved. Now I can go on and enjoy all the practice and playing with so much more understanding and confidence. All within a week - not bad progress." Charlotte

"I truly want to thank you for creating your instructional tapes. Words can not describe how you have simplified things. I always get in trouble with my wife because I spend so much time practicing. Although I still need to practice, I can see the light to playing consistent tennis. Thank you for making me understand how simple tennis truly can be. I look forward to incorporating your techniques in my teaching." Robert

"With the help from your book and videos, I have dramatically improved virtually all of aspects of my game. I have shared your techniques with a number of friends and have discussed many specifics with them. I believe each has improved his game to some extent." Larry

"Among the many tips I absorbed was the second serve, where you toss the ball and then "push" or accelerate through the ball. My second serve was pretty good before, but Tuesday and Wednesday nights it was very good. I had much more spin or bite. Thanks." Jerry, Chicago

"For the first time in 24 years I feel I know what I am doing on the court." Zoran

"Dear Oscar, I enjoyed reading the book very much and it helped me beat my Mom for the first time." Phil Rothberg, 12 year old, Philadelphia.

"Two weeks ago I received from you a book with videos and I can't thank you enough. I have been playing tennis for twenty years and can't remember about being more excited about the game. I'm playing twice as good as before." Charles

"After taking thousands of dollars worth of lessons, I am in a good position to evaluate the effect of your instruction tapes and the improvement is dramatic. I still have a long way to go but am enjoying tennis as never before." Diana
