From the moment he spotted a match in progress in Nassau at age 9, he was hooked. He fetched an errant ball that had flown over the club&#8217;s fence, was given a sixpence for his troubles, and was asked to come back the next day. He got a job as a ball boy, but as one of 10 children in a family of little means, \u201cI couldn\u2019t afford a racquet,\u201d he says. \u201cSo I made one from a machete and some wood.\u201d Likewise, he and friends crafted their own net from the fronds of local thatch trees. This early equipment served him well: He went on to play Davis Cup tennis for the Commonwealth Caribbean team, and has coached a number of eminent names at The Ocean Club. But, he says, \u201cMy favourite student is my next one \u2013 you.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"body_block_8\" class=\"body-block body-block-single-image large-body-media\">\n<div class=\"fs-image\">\n<div class=\"fs-image-container\">\n            <a href=\"https:\/\/www.fourseasons.com\/oceanclub\/\" class=\"linked-single-image\">    <picture class=\"article-title-image\">\n        <!--[if IE 9]><video style=\"display: none;\"><![endif]--><source srcset=\"https:\/\/www.fourseasons.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/courtyard_sceneOCFS-867x1024.jpg\" media=\"(min-width: 992px)\"><!--[if IE 9]><\/video><![endif]--><br \/>\n        <img decoding=\"async\"   src=\"https:\/\/www.fourseasons.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/courtyard_sceneOCFS.jpg\" class=\"attachment-mobile_large size-mobile_large\" alt=\"Ocean Club courtyard\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.fourseasons.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/courtyard_sceneOCFS.jpg 1270w, https:\/\/www.fourseasons.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/courtyard_sceneOCFS-254x300.jpg 254w, https:\/\/www.fourseasons.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/courtyard_sceneOCFS-768x907.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.fourseasons.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/courtyard_sceneOCFS-867x1024.jpg 867w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1270px) 100vw, 1270px\" \/>    <\/picture>\n    <\/a>                            <\/p>\n<div class=\"caption\">\n<div class=\"caption-wrapper\">\n<p class=\"image-block-caption image-caption\">Dress: Valentina Kova.
