Baroch was expected to arrive in HCM City yesterday, Aug 26, evening to start his work at the invitation of Viet Nam.

The Australian coach will offer consultation about the country's youth tennis development and directly coach Nam and other Vietnamese youngsters for three weeks.

Following the Davis Cup in September, Nam will compete in a series of youth tournaments in China, South Korea, Thailand, the US, Costa Rica and Venezuela to accumulate more experience before attending the Australia Open's Junior Championships next January.
