What our clients say
Mark Macdonald
Celebrity Nutrition & Fitness Expert“I’ve been an athlete almost my entire life and as a top-level soccer player I’ve had the opportunity to work with world class coaches Marcus Hurtig is the best coach I’ve ever had. My family fully knows the importance of coaching and went on a mission to find the best coach in Atlanta. Everyone I asked recommended one name, Marcus Hurtig. Marcus had a stellar reputation and was called the best coach in Atlanta. The really cool thing is that Marcus exceeded all of our expectations, he wasn’t just the best tennis coach in Atlanta, to us, he’s the best tennis coach in the world. Marcus truly cares about his clients improving their game and his love for tennis is intoxicating. He helps you improve your game at every level from equipment, to footwork, to ground strokes, to volleys, to serves and to match strategy. Marcus helps you become the best tennis player you can be and supports you every step of the way. If you want to take your tennis game to the next level, then Marcus Hurtig and OZ tennis is your choice.”

“Coach Marcus is an awesome coach!! He knows the game extremely well and is able to teach what he knows, but most of all he relates well to my kids. They can joke around and have fun, but at the same time he will push and challenge them to keep improving. He celebrates all the little victories along the way, but pushes for more. I believe anyone would benefit from lessons with Coach Marcus.”
Diane Geier
“What do we get when we have a lesson or clinic with Marcus: enthusiasm, professionalism, best coaching around (and we’ve had lots of lessons with lost of tennis pros the past 12 years), fresh ideas and tried and true strategy. He is dependable, honest (even when the truth hurts about our game!), and smart about the game of tennis. It’s a special pro who can be as effective as he is with kids, teens and adults on court. Our family knows he’s the best in Atlanta, and that’s why we always go to Marcus for top notch tennis instruction.”

“Marcus and his team have been extremely fun, patient and professional while introducing our son to tennis. Nicholas has gained so much confidence, focus and desire to improve through the “LITTLE ONES” fundamental lessons. Wish all sports had similar introductions.”
Dan Lucas
CPA / CREDO Financial Services“Marcus is the perfect coach for people that want to get better at playing tennis. When I came to see Marcus, I was a 4.0 player after working with him for about a year, I am now playing at the 6.0 level. I’m having a lot more fun. I’m a lot more skilled at playing tennis and I’m a lot smarter of a tennis player. I have taken lessons from other people before but never made the kind of progress I have made with Marcus. His focus is on both your physical and mental game so that you can have more fun playing and win more matches.”
Parent
“Marcus is a great coach for any top tennis player. He is great working with children… especially young children. He’s very patient with them. He teaches them the basic fundamentals and makes sure that they learn things right the first time. Another great thing is that he is so skilled that he can continue to be the coach as each child progresses and get’s better and older.”
Colleen Curran
Tennis Director / DoubleGate Swim & Tennis Club“I started instruction with Marcus about five years ago as a beginner player. During that time, I have been on the court with him in a variety of venues like large and small group lessons, private lessons, and specialty clinics. Marcus has made tennis enjoyable. His coaching is always positive, his lessons are fun and under his guidance, I have grown tremendously as a competitive player. He is an extremely popular coach among the men, women, teens and children in our neighborhood.”
