Arias was one of the original tennis students at IMG Academy, then the Nick Bollettieri Tennis Academy, when it opened in 1978. He turned pro at age 16, and within three years, reached the U.S. Open singles semifinals, won the 1981 French Open mixed doubles and claimed four professional singles titles.
What Our Campers Say
I improved my skill and set a goal to get better each day. I had a chance to meet the legendary Nick Bollettieri and have a private lesson with him. I love IMG and want to go back again this summer.
I enjoyed my time at IMG and all of my coaches were so nice. I learned so many things and can't wait to come back next summer!.
