Jimmy and Brett check in to talk some late season tennis on a brand new episode of Advantage Connors. Coco Gauff struggled in her first match in Riyadh against fellow American Jessica Pegula. She then bounced back and won in straight sets against Jasmine Paolini continuing the trend of inconsistency with her season. Can she clean up some of the double faults and unforced errors going forward? Jannik Sinner picked up his 5th title of the year at the Paris Masters and recaptured the #1 ranking. FAA continued his good play since US Open in a bid to make the ATP Finals. Victoria Mboko won in Hong Kong picking up her second career title and making her top 20 debut in the WTA rankings. She started the year at #333. All this plus more on the latest Advantage Connors podcast.

Die wêreld-nommer-een, Aryna Sabalenka van Belarus, is ná haar tweede oorwinning in die WTA-jaareindronde in Riaad gereed om haar plek in die halfeindronde te spreek. Sy het die Amerikaner, Jessica Pegula, verslaan maar moet in skoon stelle wen om vordering van die Stefanie Graf-groep te bevestig. Die verdedigende kampioen, Coco Gauff van Amerika, hoop om die uitklopronde te haal na haar sege oor die Italianer, Jasmine Paolini, wat uitgeskakel is. Sabalenka sê sy is vol vertroue dat sy die halfeindronde sal haal:
Welcome back to Tennis Unfiltered, the weekly podcast about tennis that does not hold back. Host James Gray risked his marriage this week by taking two hours out of his holiday to do the podcast, logging on from Athens to discuss the last seven days of tennis with Calvin Betton, Paris Masters-winning coach, and tennis writer and broadcaster George Bellshaw. Here are the stories they discussed: Jannik Sinner won his fifth Masters title and returned to world No 1, for a week at least with Carlos Alcaraz set to overtake him again next week. It also took Sinner to exactly 10,000 points for the 2025 season despite having served at three-month ban in the middle of it. Sinner beat Felix Auger-Aliassime (the indoor GOAT) in the final, having battered Alexander Zverev in the semi-final for the loss of just one game. Carlos Alcaraz meanwhile was knocked out by Cam Norrie, who maintains an impressive record against the Spaniard. But Norrie was beaten by Valentin Vacherot, who followed up his Shanghai title with proof that he is no flash in the pan, and moves into the top 30 in the world for the first time. In the best social media beef of the week, Zizou Bergs managed to catch both Reilly Opelka and Nick Kyrgios in a web of their own egos. The WTA Finals kicked off over the weekend in Riyadh, albeit not in particularly grand style. Coco Gauff was beaten by Jessica Pegula and served 17 double-faults, which meant missing more than a quarter of her second serves, and was broken nine times in all. It begs the question, do year-end finals ever really produce the best tennis? Plus Gauff claimed the WTA is “more interesting” because it has more grand slam champions, while Alcaraz and Sinner clean up on the men's side Three breakout stars won titles on the WTA Tour in the meantime: Janice Tjen of Indonesia; Canada's Victoria Mboko; and a 17-year-old from Austria named Lilli Tagger with a one-handed backhand and a grand slam winner in her box Rohan Bopanna has announced his retirement after 20 years on tour at the age of 45. He won 26 tour-level doubles titles, including the 2024 Australian Open doubles. That also took him to world No 1 at the age of 43, the oldest man ever to do so. He won 539 tour-level matches, won titles with 15 different partners and also picked up a mixed doubles grand slam title at Roland Garros in 2017. Learn more about your ad choices.

Catherine, David and Matt react to Jannik Sinner's title in Paris and the first couple of days of action at the WTA Finals. Part one - ATP. Sinner is the Paris champion and the World No.1 again, but he will finish the season on top or will it be Carlos Alcaraz? We chat about that race, Sinner's astonishing performances all week in Paris, and how the final spot in Turin all comes down to the last week of the season as Felix Auger-Aliassime and Lorenzo Musetti's fates could be decided by Novak Djokovic. Part two - WTA (30:17). We all predicted Amanda Anisimova to win the title at the WTA Finals, but she lost her opening match 6-3 6-1 to Elena Rybakina. So what happened? And can she bounce back? We chat about the disappointing matches so far, Jasmine Paolini being under the weather, and the return of Coco Gauff's double fault issues against Jessica Pegula. Plus, Victoria Mboko has ended the year on a high with another title. Part three - News (50:31). We pay tribute to the retiring Rohan Bopanna and we say goodbye to our beloved Rosie.

Victoria Mboko, the Queen of Canadian Tennis, closed out 2025 in style winning her second title of the year in Hong Kong. The 19-year-old Canadian saw off Filipina Alexandra Eala and countrywoman Leylah Fernandez en route. Mboko, who started the year ranked 333 in the world, is now at a career high 18. The WTA Finals are well under way in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. Defending champion Coco Gauff fell to Jessica Pegula in her opening match in the Stefanie Graf group. As did Jasmine Paolini, against Aryna Sabalenka. Gauff versus Paolini is now a must-win match for both. Madison Keys, playing for the first time since the US Open, is also in action. The Australian Open champion is in the Serena Williams group alongside Iga Swiatek, Amanda Anisimova and Elena Rybakina. In the doubles event, Paolini and Sara Errani are the top seeds in the Martina Navratilova group alongside debutant Asia Muhammad and Demi Schuurs. Second seeds Taylor Townsend and Katerina Siniakova are in the Liezel Huber group. Félix Auger-Aliassime played himself into an ATP Finals spot with his run to the Paris Masters final. The 25-year-old Canadian, who currently occupies the eighth and final place in the Race to Turin, lost to Jannik Sinner in Sunday's championship match. Sinner returns to No 1 in the world. World No 6 Ben Shelton also qualified for Turin following his run in Paris where he lost to eventual champion Sinner in the quarter-finals. To close, we share our thoughts on the ATP adding a 10th Masters event to the calendar from 2028.

Robbie Koenig returns to the podcast to recap all the action he called at The Shanghai Masters, which saw qualifier Valentin Vacherot complete a life-changing run and win the most unlikely Masters Title ever. Koenig explains how Vacherot put it all together and seized the moment in China, and reacts to the spectacle of his match in the final vs. his own cousin, Frenchman Arthur Rinderknech. The commentator also analyzes what may be holding Novak Djokovic back a bit in these events, discusses Daniil Medvedev's improved form, and assesses Learner Tien's terrific rookie year on tour. Koenig also explains how Coco Gauff was able to block out the surrounding noise and win the Wuhan WTA Masters comfortably. The broadcaster shares his thoughts on Jessica Pegula's impressive win over Aryna Sabalenka, the battle for WTA number one, and the true value of getting the college tennis experience on this episode.

This is another celebratory episode in response to Coco Gauff's incredible run to the Wuhan title. “Big Coco, never the little one” won all of her matches in straight sets at the WTA 1000. It's the American's second crown of the year following her French Open triumph earlier this season. The 21-year-old world No 3 now has 11 singles titles to her name, including two majors and three WTA 1000s (and don't forget the year-end Finals title last year). Jasmine Paolini also did herself proud in Wuhan with a 6-1, 6-2 statement-victory over Iga Swiatek – a player she had never beaten before – in the quarter-finals. Paolini was beaten by eventual champion Gauff in a competitive semi-final. The Italian is now in Ningbo looking to secure a WTA Finals singles spot. To close we share our thoughts on the family affair in Shanghai – shout out to champion Valentin Vacherot and his runner-up cousin Arthur Rinderknech. We also ask why it's proving so difficult for guys to step up in the absence of Carlos Alcaraz and Jannik Sinner.” Don't forget to rate, review and share on Apple Podcasts, Spotify and Audioboom.

Après une année très compliquée, Daniil Medvedev semble retrouver son meilleur tennis à Shanghai. Le Russe, ancien N°1mondial et vainqueur de l'US Open en 2021, enchaîne à nouveau les performances solides face aux meilleurs à l'image de sa victoire en quart de finale contre Alex De Minaur. Entre confiance retrouvée et ambition assumée, une question s'impose : Medvedev est-il vraiment de retour au plus haut niveau ? Dans la 2e partie de Sans Filet, tops et flops sans oublier nos pronostics. Au menu à Sahnghai : Arthur Rinderknech vs Daniil Medvedev ou encore Novak Djokovic vs Valentin Vacherot en live. Du côté de Wuhan, Jasmine Paolini affronte Coco Gauff tandis que Aryna Sabalenka a rendez-vous avec Jessice Pegula.
Novak Djokovic continue d'écrire l'histoire du tennis… mais cette fois, sans véritable opposition. En atteignant les demi-finales d'un Masters 1000 sans avoir affronté le moindre joueur du top 40 mondial, le Serbe relance le débat sur le niveau actuel du circuit. Faut-il y voir la preuve de sa domination intacte, ou le signe inquiétant d'un affaiblissement général du tennis masculin ? Entre blessures, manque de constance chez les jeunes et hiérarchie en recomposition, cette situation interroge : le circuit ATP, sans Sinner et Alcaraz, est-il devenu trop faible pour un champion de la trempe de Djokovic ? Dans la 2e partie de Sans Filet, tops et flops sans oublier nos pronostics. Au menu à Sahnghai : Arthur Rinderknech vs Félix Auger-Aliassime, Daniil Medvedev vs Alex De Minaur et la première demi-finale entre Novak Djokovic et Valentin Vacherot. Du côté de Wuhan, Laura Siegmund affronte Coco Gauff tandis que Jasmine Paolini a rendez-vous avec Iga Swiatek.
Félix Auger-Aliassime a marqué de précieux points dans la course au Masters en s'offrant Lorenzo Musetti en 2 sets au Masters 1000 de Shanghai. Le Canadien confirme son excellente forme du moment. C'est le 3e tournoi consécutif où il se hisse, au moins, en quarts de finale. Les tournois en question ? Cincinnati, l'US Open et donc Shanghai. F2A va-t-il nous offrir un finis de haut niveau ? Peut-il s'offrir sa place au Masters et retrouver le top 10 en fin de saison ? Dans la 2e partie de Sans Filet, tops et flops sans oublier nos pronostics. Au menu à Sahnghai : Bergs vs Djokovic, Rinderknech vs Auger-Aliassime et Medvedev vs De Minaur. Du côté de Wuhan, Belinda Bencic affronte Iga Swiatek en 1/8e de finale tandis que Coco Gauff à rendez-vous avec Shuai Zhang, invité dans le tournoi.
