Paul Xanthos, who taught himself to play more than 70 years ago with a book and a used racket, may be the oldest working coach in the country, the Los Angeles Daily News reported. Advertisement Xanthos retired from Pierce College in Woodland Hills in 1993 after coaching for almost 30 years and compiling a record of 550 wins, 94 losses and 23 conference championships. He returned for a year in 1999 and now he's back again. "I still dream I'm coaching and teaching tennis," he said. Xanthos will be working with one of his former students, Rajeev Datt. Datt, who describes Xanthos as "old-school," believes that their coaching styles will be complementary.
