Podcasts about Laver Cup

It's a milestone moment at Tennis Weekly HQ as we celebrate our 500th episode! Join us for a special edition with Joel, Kim and Chris on hand to look back on all the events from Week 2 at the Italian Open plus look ahead to the French Open. In Rome, the electric rivalry between Jannik Sinner and Carlos Alcaraz reignited once again, with Carlitos emerging victorious to stop the Italian's 26 match winning streak. Jasmine Paolini thrilled the home crowd by doing the singles and doubles double while Coco Gauff came up just short again in another clay final and Sabalenka suffered a straight sets surprise to Qinwen Zheng.Off the court, Novak Djokovic made headlines by ending his coaching partnership with Andy Murray after just six months, and the Laver Cup revealed fresh names for 2025, including Holger Rune and João Fonseca who are set to make their debut in San Francisco. The gang also reflect on some of their favourite moments of the podcast as they hit 500 (Venus Williams! Timea Bacsinszky! Joel at Glastonbury!) and reveal the winners of the Rafael Nadal 'The Warrior' book competition. With 500 events also underway in Strasbourg and Hamburg, Joel ponders whether this is one of the best weeks on the tour to pick up some big and easy ranking points if you are an out of form player (ahem, Andrey Rublev).

Leurs adieux au tennis mondial se sont faits dans les larmes. En septembre 2022, le Suisse Roger Federer a mis un terme à sa carrière à Londres, ovationné par les 17 000 spectateurs de la O2 Arena, malgré sa défaite lors de la Laver Cup. Pour une fois, il n'était pas l'adversaire mais le partenaire de Rafael Nadal, inconsolable à ses côtés, ce soir-là. Quasiment deux ans plus tard, cela a été au tour de l'Espagnol de tirer sa révérence, à 38 ans, honoré, à son tour, par son ancien rival.Il ne reste aujourd'hui que Novak Djovokic, passé professionnel en 2003 et venu perturber le duo, pour leur disputer les records de titres en Grand Chelem mais aussi du nombre de polémiques. Alors qu'il s'apprête à participer à son 20e Open d'Australie, qui démarre dimanche 12 janvier, le Serbe vit, lui aussi, les derniers moments de sa carrière. Sa retraite rendra le tennis mondial définitivement orphelin de ses trois champions.Comment expliquer une telle longévité ? Est-elle si exceptionnelle dans l'histoire du tennis ? Comment ce sport va-t-il devoir se réinventer pour leur survivre ? Elisabeth Pineau, journaliste au service sports du Monde et chargée du tennis, retrace la carrière de ces trois joueurs.Un épisode de Marion Bothorel. Présentation et rédaction en chef : Jean-Guillaume Santi. Suivi éditorial : Adèle Ponticelli. Réalisation : Amandine Robillard. Dans cet épisode : extraits du match de Laver Cup du 23 septembre 2022, de la lettre publiée par Roger Federer sur ses réseaux sociaux, le 19 novembre 2024 et d'une archive diffusée au journal télévisé de France 3, le 7 juin 2006.Episode publié le 10 janvier 2025.---Pour soutenir "L'Heure du Monde" et notre rédaction, abonnez-vous sur abopodcast.lemonde.fr Hébergé par Audion.

by Ed Shanaphy There's always that guy. The guy that is on the sidelines of every tournament, from a WTA qualifier to an ATP Masters to a Grand Slam. The guy who amazes onlookers through his building of a network. The guy who continues to work, even after retirement and sleeps in the back of a Suburban on the way to the next event. The guy who finally creates such volumes of great work, it brings him to the top of his profession from roots deep in the industry. The guy that becomes a legend and works with legends. On the tennis tour, that guy is Gary Kitchell. Kitchell, or Kitch as he is called by his hundreds - if not thousands - of colleagues and friends, is known around the world as one of the leading physiotherapists who graced tournament tennis courts across the globe. From the hallowed lawn of Centre Court at Wimbledon and the hard cement of Louis Armstrong Court at the US Open to the back courts at the 1990s Volvo ATP Tour stop in New Haven, Kitchell has worked with some of the greatest tennis players of all time. From the era of Borg and McEnroe, to the following upstarts Sampras and Agassi, to Federer and through to today's Tommy Paul, Reilly Opelka and Maria Sakkari, Kitch has treated injuries, reduced stress on the body and helped strength train numerous number one players to new heights. Gary loves tennis. It's always been a part of his life. His early days saw him teaching the indoor season in his native New Jersey. Soon after, he followed the sun as most instructors do and playing in semi-professional tournaments and was noticed at a small club in Vero Beach, Sea Oaks, at which he started his road along the highways and byways of the professional tours. His views of the professional tennis tours are from an interesting objective - a viewpoint from outside the employ of either the men's or women's tour but from within the fires that comprise the professional game and the travel demanded of today's tennis stars. He sees the challenges that the professional tour faces today as the Davis Cup limps along while the Laver Cup becomes a global phenomenon. He also sees the difficulty private members clubs may have using the professional game as a catalyst to new members as the tour lengthens its season and the tournaments are diluted by so much television and streamed coverage. An understanding of the professional game helps Gary to see where tennis may be headed on the amateur level at tennis and country clubs across the country. A commitment to building a community and social network at any club needs to be a priority to continue the sport's growth as it faces challenges from pickleball and padel. As a member of several private members clubs, Gary has some sage advice for club managers and directors in the club management arena. Join Gary on the BeyondTheBaselines.com podcast.

Lucy and Eugene talk Laver Cup where Team Europe were victorious, but Team World's Frances Tiafoe and Ben Shelton did record impressive singles wins over Daniil Medvedev. Changes in the coaching camps for Naomi Osaka, Coco Gauff and Iga Swiatek. Brand Patrick Mouratoglou joins up with Osaka and while technical guru Matt Daly steps into Gauff's camp – exciting times ahead.

Ben catches up with Tumaini, who is freshly back from Berlin, about the state of the Laver Cup, which might as well be called the Federer Cup for how it foregrounds the retired superstar. We discuss the relevance, successes, and struggles of the event, and contrast it with Davis Cup, which had a lumpy round of competition in recent weeks to set up for its big final this year later in Spain. Speaking of the tennis calendar, we discuss the age-old complaints about the tennis calendar which were given renewed voice by Carlos Alcaraz (and pushed back on by his rival Jannik Sinner). Then we switch to the women's side, and go in-depth on the huge news of Naomi Osaka hiring Patrick Mouratoglou, a collision of two of the biggest brands in tennis. Will they be a good fit? And how do we judge Mouratoglou's pedigree to this point?  We also discuss Coco Gauff's own coaching change, Sinner hiring Djokovic's ex-team members, and what the future might hold in store for both Djokovic and Rafael Nadal. Plus, a little rant on tennis promoters being shady about stars who are unlikely to stay entered in events, and Ben teases a new project!  Thank you for listening! Our Patreon is back up and running to ensure NCR keeps going and stays ad-free, and we hope you can join in supporting NCR! And we especially thank our GOAT backers: Pam Shriver and J. O'D.  

We didn't watch you, but we DO have a lot of opinions about how to pull off the perfect exhibition! Plus: reader questions, Racquet's story of transformation after tumult in the New York Times, and Rennae loves the WNBA.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

"Serving Aces" with Alexandra Stevenson and co-host Hugues Laverdière discuss the Laver Cup - Team Europe won - new Captains in Andre Agassi and Yannick Noah - and the end of the year championships on both men and women. Coco Gauff parted ways with Brad Gilbert.  Alexandra thinks Brad will end up back on the men's side - perhaps with Tsitsipas. Ougi and Alexandra discuss how Coco fell off in the quality of her play during the summer months.  Childhood coach importance is discussed.  Newsy notes highlight Travis Kelce not playing well on the field of play - and Taylor Swift didn't show up to the game - when Kansas City played in Atlanta - a hop, skip, and jump from NYC where Taylor was spotted.

After the seventh edition of The Laver Cup, which was won by Team Europe, Catherine, David and Matt are joined by Charlie Eccleshare of The Athletic who was in Berlin to cover the event. Charlie reports on what it was like attending for the first time, how his view of the event has evolved, and what it's like to watch tennis with Andre Agassi. We discuss the brilliant player interactions, what we learned about some of the players involved, the one or two gripes we still have, and how it might actually be a good thing if the Laver Cup doesn't mean everything. Elsewhere, there's chat about titles for Beatriz Haddad Maia and Rebecca Sramkova, an update on the unfinished ATP events in China, news of Coco Gauff splitting with Brad Gilbert, and a look ahead to tournaments in Beijing and Tokyo.

The state of football in the state of Florida has seen better days, and two marquee programs may have to cut ties with their respective head coaches soon, which would cost them a pretty penny. College Football Today host Joe Lisi joins the show to discuss why Mike Norvell and Billy Napier could both be out in the upcoming weeks.

Juanma Castaño, premiado como gijonés del año. Hablamos con el director del programa. Rafa Nadal no jugará al Laver Cup. Tiempo de opinión. 

Roger Federer changed tennis on the court, and now he's looking to make his mark off it. His agent, and the chairman of the Laver Cup, Tony Godsick sits down with Front Office Sports editor-in-chief Dan Roberts to discuss his and Federer's vision for tennis. Plus, we delve into college football's big first weekend, the uncertain future of the Pac-12 with following its failure to reach a new deal with the Mountain West, and we hear from Cheta Emba, a rugby player working to improve girls' access to the sport with her Gainbridge Parity Week grant.

It was an eventful week in tennis headlined by Andy Murray having to retire from his second round match at Queen's and then have surgery on his back. It leaves his Wimbledon participation in doubt. Catherine, David and Matt share their feelings and look ahead to what might happen over the next few days. Elsewhere, there's chat about Tommy Paul's title at Queen's, Lorenzo Musetti's run to the final, and Jack Draper's big win over Carlos Alcaraz. Matt is full of praise for Jannik Sinner winning his first grass court title in Halle and there's a rant about the shadow situation there. On the women's side, who is the favourite for Wimbledon? Jessica Pegula saved five match points to defeat Anna Kalinskaya in Berlin, Coco Gauff impressed, and it was a good week for Iga Swiatek with her feet up as Aryna Sabalenka, Elena Rybakina, Ons Jabeur and Marketa Vondrousova all retired with injury or illness.
