Jenson Brooksby is fast becoming one of the most interesting upcoming American players. Here is his bio with references to parents, coach, and about a girlfriend.
Bio, coach, and parents
Jenson was born on the 26th of October 2000Sacramento, California (United States). He was the only child of Glen and Tania Brooksby. He was named after former Formula One driver Jenson Button following the huge passion of his father for Formula one. Glen is an anesthesiologist and he used to race for fun in California.
He started playing tennis at the age of 4, and he revealed that he would ” hit a Nerf ball against the garage door every day before school, for like an hour.” “I just always loved playing tennis,” he once said.
Jenson has had the same coach, Joseph Gilbert, since he was 7. Gilbert was coaching his parents before taking on the young Brooksby with clear success.
“I’ve been with the same coach since I was seven, and my parents actually used to have lessons with him long before me. He only coached adults but my mom and dad asked him if he would try teaching me.
He said ‘yes’ and here we are 13 years later. I think it’s a cool story that I’ve been with him for so long. He knows me as a person,” he said.
As of now, there are no traces of Brooksby dating any girlfriend. There is no special person also appearing on his Instagram feeds.
