Karan Tumber
Performance Tennis Coach
I'm Karan Tumber — full name Gurkaran — a performance tennis coach based in Solihull and Lead Performance Coach at David Lloyd Solihull Cranmore.
I coached Daniel Evans, Britain's former No. 1, travelling with him on the ATP Tour and becoming one of the youngest coaches on tour. Across my career I've worked with 11 ATP-ranked players and, as an assistant coach at Florida State, with NCAA Division I athletes in the US.
Before coaching I spent around seven years on the ITF pro tour, reached the top 20 in Great Britain, and was the youngest player to represent Warwickshire's county men's team — part of the 2019 championship-winning side. I also hold a BSc in Optometry from Aston University.
My coaching is simple: real structure, tour-tested methods, and one non-negotiable — you give 100% every single session. Whether you're an under-12 county hopeful or an adult chasing a club title, that's how we build a game that lasts.
