Jeff Horn is a nationally acclaimed tennis professional. He began teaching tennis at Altamonte Racquet Club in 1980 and then instructed at Mission Inn Golf & Tennis Resort in Howey-In-The Hills, Florida. In 1983 Horn was hired by former world-class player Bob Stock to assist in building the tennis program at Sabal Point County Club in Longwood. In 31 years of coaching Horn has done so at numerous sites throughout Florida and there is not an aspect of the sport that Horn is not experienced in.
