I love watching Sem for his positive energy on the court, and that's where we began this conversation. We trace Sem's path from Amsterdam to Grand Slam runs, focusing on the mindset, structure, and choices that turned steady progress into breakthroughs. The conversation blends practical tactics with mental principles that you can use for yourself

• Where Sem's infectious positive energy comes from
• College at Pacific and his four-year growth plan
• The importance of urgency, scheduling choices, and his Miami run
• His "hunting" mindset during the 2025 Australian Open semifinal run
• Wimbledon mixed title with Siniakova and team chemistry
• Off-season redesign with functional training and neurology
• Simple routines, mantras, and visualizations
• Vision for doubles: longer partnerships, better fan stories

My favorite podcast interviews are when the guest makes me think more deeply about different topics, and Sem did not fall short. Be sure to watch him on the ATP Tour in 2026!
