In July 2023, they moved to Australia so Hector could study a Master Of Business (Sport Management) at Deakin University.Four months later, on a tip from his university mentor, he landed a three-month casual events contract at Melbourne Park, and turned it into three straight Australian Opens.

A normal Thursday turned into three stories at once: Alcaraz announcing his US Open return, the USTA's record $108 million prize money package & Slam Player Council, and Karen Moorhouse stepping down as CEO of the ITIA. Andy and Jon get into what a 20% prize money increase actually buys the players, why first-round qualifying money is now higher than what Andy earned reaching the main draw, and the ticket price fight that's about to define this tournament — including why the $400 grounds passes people are screenshotting on Twitter aren't the USTA's list price. COMMENT BELOW: Are you excited for Carlos Alcaraz return?

Iga Swiatek vs Elena Rybakina — full preview, head-to-head breakdown and prediction for the FINAL of the 2026 National Bank Open (WTA 1000 Canadian Open) in Toronto. Two of the biggest titles in the sport, a head-to-head locked at 6-6, and a rivalry that keeps refusing to settle.Iga Swiatek is into her first WTA final in nearly a year. The World No. 3 and six-time Grand Slam champion has been ruthless all fortnight — she needed just 64 minutes to sweep Diana Shnaider 6-2, 6-1 in the quarterfinals, then survived a genuine test from Elina Svitolina, coming through 6-3, 1-6, 6-3 for her first win over the Ukrainian in three meetings this season. After a period of questions about her level, this is the resurgence answered on court.Elena Rybakina has taken the hard road every single day. The No. 2 seed and reigning Australian Open champion rallied from 0-3 down in the third against Liudmila Samsonova, then came from a set down to beat Naomi Osaka 4-6, 7-6(5), 6-4 in a 2 hour 33 minute quarterfinal, and then dropped the opener again before running away with the semifinal against Coco Gauff 5-7, 6-2, 6-2. Three comebacks, one final. And with Aryna Sabalenka out of Toronto, the World No. 1 ranking has been hovering over her week.The head-to-head is one of the best in tennis: 6-6 after 12 meetings. Swiatek leads 4-3 on outdoor hard courts and won their only previous final, in Doha in 2024 — but Rybakina has taken the last two, most recently in the Australian Open quarterfinals in January. Who takes the Toronto title?

Coco Gauff vs Elena Rybakina — full preview, head-to-head breakdown and prediction for the SEMIFINAL at the 2026 National Bank Open (WTA 1000 Canadian Open) in Toronto. A rematch four years in the making, in the exact city where it started.Coco Gauff is into the Toronto semifinals for the FIRST TIME in her career, after three previous attempts that all ended in the quarterfinals. The World No. 4, 31-12 on the season, moved through with a clinical 6-3, 6-1 win over teenage qualifier Alina Korneeva in the round of 16 — her 25th career WTA 1000 quarterfinal — and then received a walkover when No. 12 seed Belinda Bencic withdrew with a hip injury. She arrives fresh. That may matter enormously.Elena Rybakina does not arrive fresh, and it may not matter at all. The No. 2 seed and reigning Australian Open champion has ground her way here through back-to-back survival jobs: down 0-3 in the third to Liudmila Samsonova before winning 6-4, 4-6, 6-4, then a set down to Naomi Osaka in their first-ever meeting before taking it 4-6, 7-6(5), 6-4 across 2 hours and 33 minutes, firing 13 aces and saving four break points in the decider. With Aryna Sabalenka out of Toronto, the World No. 1 ranking is very much in play for her.The head-to-head? They have met exactly ONCE — right here in Toronto in 2022, where Gauff edged it in a third-set tiebreak. Four years on, both are completely different players. Who reaches the final?

Andy Roddick breaks down exactly why Canada and Cincinnati keep producing chaos. With Carlos Alcaraz and Jannik Sinner both pulling out of Cincinnati with injuries, Andy explains why rushing back for a best-of-five US Open could be a risky move. Then, former world No. 4 Holger Rune joins the show for an exclusive update on his Achilles recovery — how rehab is going, when he's targeting a return, and the new Wilson Defeyer racket in his bag. In this episode: Alcaraz & Sinner injuries and the real risk of a US Open return Why you can't replicate five-set match conditions in practice Sabalenka "searching" and a wide-open women's US Open draw Learner Tien's rise toward becoming the top American Holger Rune's full Achilles comeback update and return timeline Holger's racket switch to Wilson and how it compares to his old frame A day in the life of an injured pro: rehab, hitting partners & the grind Next week: Jason Hehir on his Novak Djokovic documentary "The Wolf in Winter" COMMENT BELOW: Who do you think is the new favorite for Cincy!?

Naomi Osaka vs Elena Rybakina — full preview, head-to-head breakdown and prediction for their QUARTERFINAL at the 2026 National Bank Open (WTA 1000 Canadian Open) in Toronto. Two of the biggest hitters in the sport, meeting for the FIRST TIME ever, with the World No. 1 ranking hovering over the match.Naomi Osaka is playing her best tennis in years. The four-time Grand Slam champion and No. 11 seed has now won 13 of her last 15 completed matches, following her DC Open semifinal run in Washington with a spotless week in Toronto — she has not dropped a set. She beat Panna Udvardy 6-3, 6-4, crushed Elise Mertens 6-1, 6-2 in 71 minutes, and then silenced a sold-out home crowd by ending Leylah Fernandez 6-4, 6-4.Elena Rybakina is the No. 2 seed, the reigning Australian Open champion, and the form player on hard courts on the entire tour — 42 wins in her last 50 hard-court matches and 24-5 in 2026. With Aryna Sabalenka out of Toronto, Rybakina is now within touching distance of the World No. 1 ranking, though she's playing it down: "a lot of matches I gotta win." She needed every bit of her fight to get here, coming back from 0-3 and two breaks down in the deciding set to beat Liudmila Samsonova 6-4, 4-6, 6-4.They have never played a competitive match — only two practice sessions, in Australia and at Roland-Garros. Two of the purest ball-strikers in the game, no head-to-head, and a No. 1 ranking in the background. Who reaches the semifinals?

Hugo-Boss-CEO Daniel Grieder hat die traditionsreiche deutsche Modefirma wiederbelebt - und in den letzten fünf Jahren den Umsatz von zwei auf vier Milliarden Euro verdoppelt. Doch jetzt stößt die Vollgas-Strategie des Schweizer Managers an ihre Grenzen: Die Konsumrückhaltung lässt die Umsätze stagnieren, wichtige Märkte wie Russland oder der Nahe Osten brechen weg. Doch Grieder bleibt optimistisch: Mit einem starken Fokus auf das Sportmarketing will er das MDax-Unternehmen wieder auf Wachstumskurs bringen. Dafür wettet Hugo Boss unter anderem auf die Australian Open oder Tennis-Nachwuchsstar Taylor Fritz. Im OMR-Podcast verrät er zudem, wie er es geschafft hat, Fußball-Legende David Beckham als Testimonial und Partner zu gewinnen, wie viel KI der Modemarke gut tut - und warum er selbst nicht zum Influencer taugt.

Zeynep Sonmez vs Maria Sakkari — full preview, head-to-head breakdown and prediction for their SECOND ROUND clash at the 2026 National Bank Open (WTA 1000 Canadian Open) in Toronto. Turkey's trailblazer against a former World No. 3 in the middle of a genuine revival.Zeynep Sonmez has been one of the stories of 2026. The Turkish No. 1 started the season at World No. 110 and has climbed to a career-high of No. 54 — already the highest-ranked Turkish player in WTA history — with a third-round run at the Australian Open and breakthrough weeks in Madrid and Nottingham along the way. In Toronto she came through a tricky opener against home favorite Rebecca Marino 7-5, 6-4, handling a partisan crowd with real composure.Maria Sakkari, ranked No. 33, is playing her best tennis in two years. The former World No. 3 and two-time Grand Slam semifinalist reached her first final in over two seasons in Athens, and she has looked like a genuine threat again on hard courts — the surface where her movement and forehand have always travelled best.The head-to-head belongs to the Greek: Sakkari leads 2-1, and in their only 2026 meeting at the Qatar Open in Doha she dropped just four games. Sonmez is a different player now, on her preferred surface, with nothing to lose. Can she finally break through?

Meet Hayley Conway, marketing, partnerships and fan experience consultant, and the co-founder of Principal the Label.Hayley's career began on the agency side, spending five years in media, buying TV ads for household brands (yes, including Red Rooster during the footy), before making the jump to client work, where recruiters kept telling her the skills weren't transferable. So she went contract-to-contract for two years, a self-imposed MBA in events, brand activation and PR and built the exact toolkit that now sees her working across Formula 1, the Paris Olympics and Paralympics, the AFL and AFLW, the Australian Open, Fox Sports and ESPN.Then in 2024, she backed herself even further, co-founding a racing-inspired fashion label that's just landed a NASCAR collaboration in the US.In this episode, Hayley shares how she turned a career working in corporate into a freelance career across F1, the Olympics and the AFL, why two years of contracting built a network no full-time role could, and the moment she moved away from agency work to choose the work she loved, over the corporate climb.We cover:(03:07) - Interview begins(05:21) - Quick Fire Questions(14:51) - Hayley's career in corporate before transitioning to sport(35:02) - How Hayley's business, Principal the Label, came to life(50:54) - What does the design process for a new drop look like(55:12) - Other labels or brands Hayley draws inspiration from(56:24) - Hayley's vision for Principal the Label in the futureIf you liked this ep, give these a go next:#265: From Westpac to the Adelaide Crows FC in 29 days with Community Engagement Manager, Parth Suri#302: Paris 2024, Content Creator | Stella Barry #325: How to build a career in sports media from scratch with Brody BurrowsWant a job in sport?

We are four wide on this busy Friday with a lot of news to discuss as the week closes before the U.S. Open. Brendan is joined by KVV, Joseph, and PJ. They begin with the Golf Digest report on allegations against Phil Mickelson of nonconsensual and inappropriate physical contact with a female employee at his home club that led to his removal from said club. They discuss the late stage spiral of Phil, and the seriousness of this now most recent allegation, the mess he’s made of his career, what could have been, and what will never be now. Then they get into a spate of LIV news from reports on the future of its remaining four events in the Financial Times, to a report on confusion about the contracts for players like Jon Rahm, to one more about the Australian Open perhaps becoming the “death knell” of LIV’s reimagined plans. Joseph brings some provocative comments about the TPC Toronto test for the Canadian Open and the PGA Tour putting bumpers up for the highest level of pro golf. KVV has a Flashback segment on a former rules kerfuffle at a U.S. Open that had players tweeting angrily all through the evening. Then they close with a wide-ranging PJ minute on the Knicks, an all time win, and an all time rant about Carmelo’s place in franchise lore.

PJ is off playing the 100 Hole Hike (Donate Here!), leaving Andy and Brendan to fend for themselves on this Wednesday edition of SGS. So it begins with a rambling first 10 minutes on the World Cup, Knicks, Kramer Hikock, the Bears moving to Indiana, and much more. Eventually, they get to “Golf’s Longest Day” and the multitude of stories that emerged from final qualifying for the U.S. Open, including Charlie Woods “carrying” the young phenom Miles Russell to Shinnecock. Event of the Week honors had a crowded field to chose from between a national open in Canada, the Curtis Cup, and a Champs tour stop at Wakonda Club in Iowa. LIV heading to CNBC for a pitch, with minimal leverage, and an unclear future, is assessed as a strategy play. Lastly, news covers the PGA Tour officially partnering with the Australian Open and what that means for a global tour. The death of the Rocket Classic in Detroit is also discussed, leading to a few ideas for how the new Track 1 and Track 2 schedule might operate and survive.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

A 10-day ceasefire between Israel and Lebanon has come into effect after it was brokered by the United States. Hezbollah have indicated they will observe the truce, though Israeli troops are to remain in Lebanese areas they have occupied. Iran has welcomed the development but wants a full Israeli withdrawal from Lebanon. President Trump says Iran has agreed to hand over its enriched uranium, one of the key sticking points in negotiations to bring the war to an end. Fresh talks, he said, could resume as early as this weekend with Washington and Tehran "very close" to making a deal.Also: the British Prime Minister is facing calls to resign, after it emerged that his former ambassador to the US was appointed despite failing security vetting.
