Same observation with his coaches Louis Conchon and Guillaume De Choudens. Gabriel Debru attended the Grenoble Tennis High Level Training Center (CEHN) from the age of 10 to 15, before being trained by the French Tennis Federation. ” Gabriel Debru is one of the very good players to have attended the club in recent years“, confirms Louis Conchon.
