The seeds for Canada’s rise on the courts were planted nearly five decades ago with a group that included Pacific Institute for Sport Excellence CEO Robert Bettauer
Canadian tennis is having a moment. Actually, quite a few of them with the heady generation that began with Milos Raonic and Eugenie Bouchard, and continues with Denis Shapovalov, Félix Auger-Aliassime, Vasek Pospisil, Bianca Andreescu and Leylah Fernandez.The group included four future Canadian Davis Cup players — Bettauer, John Picken, Josef Brabenec, Derek Segal — and played together in the NCAA Division 1 with the Pan American University Broncs team from 1974 to 1978.
“We did our part to push Canadian tennis to the next level. Others built on top of that. I am very proud of what we did.” Bettauer has run PISE, on the Camosun College Interurban campus, for 13 years and also provides the tennis colour commentary for Rogers Sportsnet.
