An exploration of the ongoing debate surrounding professional doubles and its future. In this episode, I directly address the recent comments about doubles from Andy Roddick and Jon Wertheim on the Served Podcast, ignited by Reilly Opelka. I also created a separate video addressing the issue (see links in show notes below).I believe one of the problems we face is that there has been an echo chamber culture around the doubles debate. We need people with different opinions to come together for conversations that create change. While I haven't been able to get Andy, Jon, or Reilly on the podcast yet, I thought this was the next best thing.Here's what I attempt to cover.Where I agree and disagree with Andy & JonWhy doubles does have a "user education" problemThe "business case" for doubles specialistsWhy other sports like professional driving or golf can helpThe economics of doubles at the majors vs 250's & 500's (a topic I'm still trying to understand)My vision for a future doubles tourI hope this episode helps keep the conversation going and creates positive change for tennis.
