Rennae Stubbs portrait
Rennae Stubbs · New York City

Born in Sydney, Australia, Rennae Stubbs turned professional in 1990 and went on to become one of the most successful doubles players the sport has ever seen. She reached World No. 1 in Doubles in August 2000 and captured 6 Grand Slam titles — placing her among the elite of Australian tennis history.

Over a career spanning more than two decades, she accumulated 60 WTA doubles titles — the most by any Australian woman — winning with eleven different partners and demonstrating a rare adaptability and competitive intelligence that set her apart.

She represented Australia at four consecutive Olympic Games: Atlanta 1996, Sydney 2000, Athens 2004, and Beijing 2008, and remains the longest-serving member of Australia's Fed Cup team, having played for 17 consecutive years.

After retiring in 2011, Rennae transitioned into coaching — guiding Karolína Plíšková (2018–19), Samantha Stosur (2019–21, culminating in Stosur's 2021 US Open doubles title), and most memorably, Serena Williams at Serena's farewell US Open in 2022.

Off the court, she became one of tennis's most trusted broadcasters — lead analyst for ESPN and NBC, host of an original Amazon Prime Video sports programme, and host of two acclaimed iHeart Radio podcasts: The Rennae Stubbs Tennis Podcast and Forging Gold — The Making of a Champion.

Now based in New York City, Rennae brings everything she has learned — on the court, in the coaching box, and in front of the camera — to corporate audiences who want more than a speaker. They want someone who has actually been there.

Rennae Stubbs is the most giving, loving, patient and understanding person. Her wisdom and kindness exceeds tennis. She is a once in a lifetime individual.
