The Tennis Tragic #053 / It Ain't Happening / It's happening! The Tragic Three have returned from a luxurious and restful break with a Double Slam Episode. We look back at Wimbledon and forward to the US Open. Does anything matter in light of the Novak-Carlos rivalry? Should we believe that Ons will eventually get to the mountaintop? Will we stop forgetting that Marketa Vondrousova exists? Other topics include Marco Trungelliti and Nao Hibino updates, Cleveland's perception in the culture, Brad Gilbert and Coco Gauff's fearhand, the Tennis Knobs, Universal Tennis Rankings, the Eubanks Run, the Baez-Lehecka final in Winston-Salem, the returns of Wozniacki, Raonic, and Kei Nishikori, the excellence of the Cincinnati Men's Final, Jimmy Butler's all-court game, Jannik Sinner, Tatiana Maria, Jessica Pegula, Nick Kyrgios, Frances Tiafoe, Davidovich Fokina, and the return of the Upset Game. Tragic on three... one, two, three...
Welcome back once again to TC Live! Join Steve Weissman, Andrea Petkovic, and Andy Roddick as they jump into all of the action from a busy Thursday, including upset wins from Alejandro Davidovich Fokina over Casper Ruud and Alex de Minaur over Taylor Fritz. The crew also discusses Nick Kyrgios pulling out of the upcoming US Open and previews tomorrow's matchups. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

This week's podcast features two players are different trajectories in pursuit of the same tennis goals. Kamau Murray sits down with Ethan Quinn, the winner of the NCAA men's singles title this past year as he begins his pro career.

The young man from Fresno also shares some of his favorite moments being coached, and what the transition has been like on the tour. And then Illya Marchenko joins the show for an in-person interview. Marchenko has been a pro since 2005, and he describes how he was able to make it to the big-time from the Ukraine.

CARLOS ALCARAZ ON PLAYING ON GRASS - 'You know for me it's great because I just have to focus on the movement and not on my style. If I move well I think it's going to be great. I used to watch Federer on grass, I watched videos because you want to be like Federer, but it's impossible, but he is my role model on grass. The elegance that he hits the shots that he plays, he moved really well and made the tennis on grass easy'.HOLGER RUNE ON DREAMING ABOUT PLAYING AT WIMBLEDON - ‘I have always dreamt about winning this tournament and I think one day it will suit me well. I like to play aggressive and come forward to the net, which in theory should work well on the grass, but I want to be happy and not too stressed when I play and it's very important to stay positive'.MATE PAVIC ON FOLLOWING IN GORAN IVANISEVIC'S FOOTSTEPS - ‘We all grew up in Croatia on Goran's Wimbledon in 2001 and that kind of sticks to you that Wimbledon is there, that's Wimbledon and everything else is down, you want to win it since you were a kid, you're dreaming of it since a kid and it's a special feeling'.TIM HENMAN ON THE CHANGE HE WOULD MAKE TO THE GRASS SEASON - ‘If I could change one thing in the sport it would be the variation of surfaces. I think we've got too uniform, so I would make grass a little quicker. It was becoming a bit or a serving competition when I was playing and was that appealing, but the level of tennis these days is phenomenal, but it's too one dimensional'.STEFANOS TSITSIPAS ON THE THREAT NICK KYRGIOS POSES - ‘You know Nick Kyrgios is a threat because on a good day he can play great tennis, he doesn't play all year and then just shows up on one tournament on grass, serves big and plays like he has nothing to lose, so he is a very tricky opponent to play against'.STEFAN EDBERG ON HIS EARLY MEMORIES OF WIMBLEDON - ‘I can still remember the time when I first got to Wimbledon in 1983, when you walk on top of that hill, you actually see Wimbledon, just the site, seeing Wimbledon in front of you was the thing that you dreamt about going to one day'.- Show presented by Chris Bowers- Podcast guest Jill Craybas- Interviews by Richard Connelly, Seb Lauzier, Chris Bowers and Jill Craybas- Edberg & Wilander feature by ATP Uncovered

We're just days away from the start of main-draw action at Wimbledon, where we will enjoy two weeks of grass-court Grand Slam tennis. Who is likely to fare best at the All England Club? We chat to Australian great Casey Dellacqua about the players catching her eye in the build-up to the tournament, and ask for her picks to win the prestigious title. In a two-part interview, doubles legend Todd Woodbridge takes us behind the curtain to show us exactly what makes Wimbledon so special, a place where he is a 10-time champion and an honorary member. Woodbridge is one of many Aussies who have thrived at Wimbledon, so we caught up with “Aussie Kim” Clijsters to discuss another in Nick Kyrgios, 12 months on from his electrifying run to the 2022 final.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Immigration Minister Andrew Giles to announce an increase to Australia's humanitarian intake, The United States and China agree to stabilise relations between the two countries after talks, Nick Kyrgios insists he is still hopeful he will overcome an injury to compete at Wimbledon next month.
On this episode, Harry LaBollita returns to discuss Netflix's hit series Break Point. Helmed by the same team behind F1: Drive to Survive, Break Point chronicles the world's up-and-coming tennis stars as they prepare and compete on the international professional tennis circuit, including all four Grand Slams and ATP and WTP tournaments. In Season 1, the cast of characters includes Nick Kyrgios (a "bad boy" from the Land Down Under), Matteo Berrettini (an Italian stallion with high ambitions and an equally successful girlfriend, Ajla Tomljanovic) Taylor Fritz (a So-Cal native who overcomes injury to out Nadal in the Indian Wells championship), Paula Badosa (a Spanish model dealing with mental health issues), Ons Jabeur (a Tunisian standout representing an entire continent), and Felix Auger-Aliassime (a Montreal-based wunderkind who just might be the next great). We focus on a few primary themes: namely, the emergence of mental health crises and the perils of neuroses in the sport. This leads us into a fascinating discussion about the inherent pressures of tennis, the grueling attrition of playing year-round on the pro circuit, the attrition of mental fortitude due to the overwhelming speed of the game, the isolated vulnerability of playing a singles tournament, and the relativistic medley of psychological approaches and philosophies deployed by the various teams in hopes of curbing negative thoughts before they spiral into destructive self-sabotage on the court. We also debate who we think might be the next poster child for tennis as the Big Three (Nadal, Federer, Djokovic) begin to retire or suffer from the law of diminishing returns with age. Enjoy!

Collin McHugh pitched three perfect innings after starter Dylan Dodd allowed five runs on six hits and three walks over four innings. Michael Harris went 4 for 4 with a homer and four RBIs as Atlanta beat Detroit 10-7 in the first game. Cubs 10, Pirates 6 – Swanson sparks 6-run 6th, Cubs rally to beat Pirates 10-6 Dansby Swanson started Chicago’s six-run sixth inning with a hit, then capped the rally with an RBI single as the Cubs overcame a four-run deficit to beat the Pittsburgh Pirates 10-6 on Wednesday night. Swanson finished with three hits and two RBIs to help Chicago knock off Pittsburgh for the second straight night.

Dodgers (Grove 0-2), 10:10 p.m. MLB – A’s stadium deal wins legislative approval in Nevada as MLB weighs move to Vegas The Oakland Athletics have cleared a major hurdle for their planned relocation to Las Vegas after the Nevada Legislature gave final approval to public funding for a portion of a proposed $1.5 billion stadium with a retractable roof. The deal approved Wednesday still needs the governor’s signature and approval from MLB, but both are anticipated. Republican Gov. Joe Lombardo is the one who proposed it. The Nevada Assembly made minor changes Wednesday to the measure the Senate had approved Tuesday just hours before the Vegas Golden Knights won the Stanley Cup. The Senate voted final approval Wednesday night. Golf – Chaos rules the day as US Open comes to the glitz of Los Angeles Brooks Koepka says he enjoys chaos. He’s come to the right place at this U.S. Open. Players have been trying to digest the news of the PGA Tour’s shock partnership with LIV Golf’s Saudi Arabian backers. And then PGA Tour Commissioner Jay Monahan had to turn off day-to-day control to two executives because of what’s described as a medical situation. Still to be determined is what kind of chaos Los Angeles Country Club delivers. The U.S. Open starts Thursday on a course smack dab in the middle of LA on a course that looks big and plays small. Golf – US Open barranca offers beauty, danger at LA Country Club The word of the week at the U.S. Open is barranca. It stems from the Spanish word meaning cliff, precipice, gully or ravine. Merriam-Webster defines it as “a deep gully or arroyo with steep sides.” At Los Angeles Country Club, the barranca, lined with sand and dotted with native grasses and ball-entangling plants, winds through most of the first nine holes and part of the back nine, as well. Much like the seawall cliffs at Pebble Beach or the church pew bunker at Oakmont, it’s the barranca that stands out as the most feared and talked-about feature for the U.S. Open’s first return to LA since 1948. WNBA – Women’s National Basketball Association Tonight Indiana Fever at Chicago Sky, 8:00 p.m. NBA – Hawks’ finalize coaching staff for 2023-24 season, includes Kokoskov, Brey Atlanta Hawks coach Quin Snyder has announced his staff for next season. It includes former Phoenix Suns head coach Igor Kokoskov as the lead assistant, as well as longtime Notre Dame coach Mike Brey. The remaining assistants are Bryan Bailey, Brittni Donaldson, Steve Klei, Antonio Lang, Sanjay Lumpkin, Ekpe Udoh and Jeff Watkinson. In addition, Reggis Onwukamuche will take over as player development coach, while Bryan George will work in player development, advance scouting and video. Snyder took over the Hawks in late February after the firing of Nate McMillan. NFL – Diggs returns to Bills practice; Coach McDermott says concerns are resolved Stefon Diggs was back on the field practicing, and Bills coach Sean McDermott said whatever lingering issues from last season that raised concern and confusion over the absence of Buffalo’s top receiver a day earlier have been resolved. McDermott expanded and clarified on the limited statements he made a day earlier by saying Diggs didn’t skip the team’s mandatory session on Tuesday, but was in fact excused. He also said a series of discussions airing out Diggs’ concerns have left the team and receiver “in a real good spot.” Diggs’ participation was his first with the team this offseason after he skipped the Bills voluntary workout and practice sessions. NHL – Golden Knights’ success lifts Las Vegas to another level in sports world The modern era for Las Vegas sports began when the NHL awarded the city an expansion franchise in 2016. The Golden Knights began playing in the 2017-18 season. They won their first Stanley Cup on Tuesday. Since the Knights came onboard, Las Vegas acquired an NFL team in the Raiders, and the WNBA’s Stars moved from San Antonio and became the Aces. The Aces won the championship last year and this season are again the league’s best team. Olympics – US Olympic ski jumper Patrick Gasienica dies in motorcycle accident at 24 U.S. Olympic ski jumper Patrick Gasienica has died at the age of 24. Gasienica died after being involved in a motorcycle accident on Monday night in the northwest Chicago suburbs, according to the Bull Valley Police Department. He competed for the United States last year in the Beijing Games. Gasienica finished 49th and 53rd in individual events in China, and was 10th in a team competition with Casey Larson, Kevin Bickner and Decker Dean. He developed as a young ski jumper at the Norge Ski Club about 40 miles northwest of Chicago. Tennis – Nick Kyrgios reveals he ended up in psychiatric ward during Wimbledon in 2019 Australian tennis star Nick Kyrgios has revealed he spent time in a psychiatric ward following a loss at Wimbledon in 2019 because of suicidal thoughts. Kyrgios’ comments in interviews for the upcoming Netflix documentary series “Break Point” have been widely published in Australia. Kyrgios says he went to a hospital in London to “figure out my problems” four years ago and he says he "was genuinely contemplating suicide." Kyrgios has previously discussed his mental health struggles on social media and in interviews and has said he’s doing better after seeking help. He lost the 2022 Wimbledon final to Novak Djokovic and has been largely sidelined by injuries since.

Former British #1 and grand slam finalist John Lloyd returns to the podcast to recap how Novak Djokovic made history at Roland Garros, winning his record-breaking 23rd major title. Lloyd explains how Djokovic continues to raise the bar for the sport, and why there's still plenty in the tank for the Serbian. The current commentator also discusses the cramping issue with Carlos Alcaraz, how Iga Swiatek triumphed in Paris for the 3rd time, and why women's tennis is in a very good place. Lloyd then dives into the start of grass court season, with the return of several names such as Nick Kyrgios, Matteo Berrettini & Venus Williams. The former Davis Cup coach of Great Britain explains why Andy Murray is still dangerous on the grass, what it's like being a member at the All England Club, and what advice he'd give to new tennis couple Stefanos Tsitsipas & Paula Badosa.

The deal approved Wednesday still needs the governor’s signature and approval from MLB, but both are anticipated. Republican Gov. Joe Lombardo is the one who proposed it. The Nevada Assembly made minor changes Wednesday to the measure the Senate had approved Tuesday just hours before the Vegas Golden Knights won the Stanley Cup. The Senate voted final approval Wednesday night. Golf – Chaos rules the day as US Open comes to the glitz of Los Angeles Brooks Koepka says he enjoys chaos. He’s come to the right place at this U.S. Open. Players have been trying to digest the news of the PGA Tour’s shock partnership with LIV Golf’s Saudi Arabian backers. And then PGA Tour Commissioner Jay Monahan had to turn off day-to-day control to two executives because of what’s described as a medical situation. Still to be determined is what kind of chaos Los Angeles Country Club delivers. The U.S. Open starts Thursday on a course smack dab in the middle of LA on a course that looks big and plays small. Golf – US Open barranca offers beauty, danger at LA Country Club The word of the week at the U.S. Open is barranca. It stems from the Spanish word meaning cliff, precipice, gully or ravine. Merriam-Webster defines it as “a deep gully or arroyo with steep sides.” At Los Angeles Country Club, the barranca, lined with sand and dotted with native grasses and ball-entangling plants, winds through most of the first nine holes and part of the back nine, as well. Much like the seawall cliffs at Pebble Beach or the church pew bunker at Oakmont, it’s the barranca that stands out as the most feared and talked-about feature for the U.S. Open’s first return to LA since 1948.

Snyder took over the Hawks in late February after the firing of Nate McMillan. NFL – Diggs returns to Bills practice; Coach McDermott says concerns are resolved Stefon Diggs was back on the field practicing, and Bills coach Sean McDermott said whatever lingering issues from last season that raised concern and confusion over the absence of Buffalo’s top receiver a day earlier have been resolved. McDermott expanded and clarified on the limited statements he made a day earlier by saying Diggs didn’t skip the team’s mandatory session on Tuesday, but was in fact excused. He also said a series of discussions airing out Diggs’ concerns have left the team and receiver “in a real good spot.” Diggs’ participation was his first with the team this offseason after he skipped the Bills voluntary workout and practice sessions. NHL – Golden Knights’ success lifts Las Vegas to another level in sports world The modern era for Las Vegas sports began when the NHL awarded the city an expansion franchise in 2016.

Since the Knights came onboard, Las Vegas acquired an NFL team in the Raiders, and the WNBA’s Stars moved from San Antonio and became the Aces. The Aces won the championship last year and this season are again the league’s best team.
