LAURENTSI ARAKHAMIYA
PRO TIER: SENIOR
Laurentsi was born in Minsk, the capital of Belarus. He was introduced to tennis at the age of six and began competing in national and international tournaments by age twelve. As a top-10 player in his country in both the U16 and U18 divisions, Laurentsi earned full sponsorship from a government program that allowed him to train with elite players such as Ilya Ivashka (Top 50 ATP), Egor Gerasimov (Top 100 ATP), Anton Dubrov (current coach of Aryna Sabalenka), and Egor Yatsyk (coach of Aslan Karatsev).
At seventeen, Laurentsi placed sixth in the Belarus National Tournament (Davis Cup selection event), earning a spot on the Davis Cup Team as an alternate player.
In 2011, he received a full NAIA Division scholarship to Bethany College in Kansas, where he twice won the regional tournament as a freshman and sophomore and reached the semifinals of the national championship both years.
After earning his Bachelor of Science, Laurentsi coached privately for three years before joining the Sportime Harbor Island team in Mamaroneck. After advancing through the coaching ranks there, he moved on to New Rochelle Racquet Club, where he continued to develop players of all levels.
Before joining TIA, Laurentsi spent two years coaching competitive junior players, helping them elevate their games for varsity and collegiate-level play.
Laurentsi brings a wealth of international experience, technical expertise, and passion to TIA, inspiring players of all ages and skill levels to grow and love the game.
