Manage episode 285830491 series 2882847
The Pod On Point crew welcomes Donald Dell to this week’s episode. Dell’s career in sports has been incredibly impactful as an athlete, lawyer, and businessman (in his tennis playing days, Dell peaked with a Top 5 ranking and captained the winning 1968 Davis Cup team led by Arthur Ashe). Donald is a prominent founder, founding Pro-Serv sports management firm, the Association of Tennis Professionals (ATP), and the Citi Open to name a few.
Dell’s Pro-Serv career was notable for the athletes they represented (such as Arthur Ashe, Michael Jordan, and Pete Sampras) and the deals they shaped (including the 2001 FedEx Naming Rights deal with the Washington Football Team “FedEx Field”, which at the time was the largest in NFL history). Donald is currently an active philanthropist and an adjunct professor at the University of Virginia law school.
