Podcasts about Ostapenko

With a pretty disappointing season prior to the clay, Iga Swiatek looked a lot better with a new coach in her camp.After a solid run in Rome losing out to defending champion Elina Svitolina, some even said Swiatek might be a big favourite to win the Roland Garros title a fifth time.She won her first two rounds, avoided a dangerous clash against Ostapenko, and then lost in two sets to Madrid champion Marta Kostyuk in the 4th round in Paris.Now what? Is it the end for Swiatek? Are her best days already behind her? Are the only things left for her now her memories and trophies?I don't think so. It's never clear cut, but Swiatek is only 25 years old, and it happens to basically any great player to have a slump, a bad season or two, or to deal with some difficulties during their careers. The important thing is to keep coming back, keep trying to find solutions, keep playing and fighting.It won't be easy, but with patience and resilience, I really think Swiatek will get back to her best - and maybe lift the Roland Garros trophy again as early as next year.Favourite this podcast if you like our work :)SUBSCRIBE to the YouTube channel!Follow TENNIS AND BAGELS!Twitter/X: https://x.com/TennisAndBAGELSAndre:Twitter/X - https://x.com/RolembergAndreBlueSky Social: https://bsky.app/profile/andrerolemberg.bsky.socialVansh: https://x.com/vanshv2kOwen (BlueSky Social): https://bsky.app/profile/owensports.bsky.socialSupport this show http://supporter.acast.com/tennis-and-bagels.

Brett Connors joins the podcast to recap an entertaining first round at Roland Garros, where Americans Taylor Fritz and Jessica Pegula were knocked out. Connors reacts to another early exit for Daniil Medvedev, Learner Tien's impressive game on clay, and Casper Ruud finding a way to survive and advance. The producer and podcast host looks at Novak Djokovic's path to a deep run, Alexander Zverev's opportunity to finally change the narrative, and who can challenge Jannik Sinner's quest for the career-slam. Connors also dives into the women's draw, where we are on the verge of Iga Swiatek facing Jelena Ostapenko, who she has never beaten. The co-host of "Advantage Connors" discusses Mirra Andreeva and Iva Jovic's potential, the unfortunate injury to Alexander BlockX that involved the Roland Garros tarp, and some R2 matches he has his eyes on.

Matthew Coleman is back to join Paul for a Roma recap and a preview of Roland Garros.  We debate what makes someone worth stanning and argue over being an Ostapenko versus a Sinner.  And with all the injured players taking time off, we rank who would make the best James Bond during their time off.  Plus we have new Lobsbians that ask the question "when would you pants yourself?" and we consult our crystal balls to predict the upsets and breakthroughs for Paris.

If you've been watching the US Open this year, chances are you'll have seen that there's been some drama on the court. There was a heated exchange between players Jelena Ostapenko and Taylor Townsend. Ostapenko has been fined in the past before for throwing her water bottle and knocking over a chair, after she lost a match.So today, we're talking about bad behaviour in tennis, and what the rules are for tennis players who throw things, shout, and even smash up their rackets. Someone who has seen many a Grand Slam spat in their time is Ben Rothenberg, former NYT tennis correspondent and writer behind the blog Bounces. He takes us through some top tennis meltdowns and explains why it's such a high pressure sport.Instagram: @bbcwhatintheworld Email: whatintheworld@bbc.co.uk WhatsApp: +44 330 12 33 22 6 Presenter: Hannah Gelbart Producers: Emily Horler and Chelsea Coates Editor: Verity Wilde

In "Serving Aces" Alexandra Stevenson and Hugues Laverdiere discuss week one at the US Open.  Alexandra brings up Taylor Townsend's breakout run and the outburst from her opponent, Ostapenko after the match.  Alexandra tells Ougi that she thinks Ostapenko was trying to take down Townsend because of her lack of traditional etiquette on the court.  Townsend is known for warming up at the net and big celebrations that annoy some of the more staid players - though Ostapenko is far from staid. Alexandra and Ougi talk about other players who ruffled feathers in a big way during the first week at the Open.  Alexandra and Ougi picked the final four for the Open.  Newsy notes finds Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce engaged - and Texas' young quarterback Arch Manning having a not so good day against Ohio State.

The US Open rages on, and journalist Lukas Weese joins the show to recap all the action from New York. The Athletic Live Reporter discusses the tense exchange between Taylor Townsend and Jelena Ostapenko, Tommy Paul's late night victory, and Coco Gauff's ability to fight through her service woes. Weese also explains why knocking off Jannik Sinner and Carlos Alcaraz will be a tall task for the field, but if anyone can do it, it's American Ben Shelton. The journalist also breaks down Iga Swiatek's close victory in Round 2, Karolina Muchova's eclectic game, and the Jasmine Paolini being the subject of one of the greatest sports photos ever. And Weese analyzes Novak Djokovic's performance through two matches, and debates whether the Serbian can contend for the US Open title. Hosted by Mitch Michals.

We dive into Iga Swiatek's gritty three-set win over Suzan Lamens, her first dropped set since Montreal, as she battles her way into the third round along with Jannik Sinner's first serve struggle.

Only one place to start, Court 11 that was packed for Taylor Townsend's upset-victory over (25)Jelena Ostapenko. The Latvian took the L badly and resorted to some pretty derogatory insults, accusing Townsend of having “no class” and “no education”. Townsend handled the situation superbly, both on court and in press afterwards. To think all that happened on HBCU Live Day, that was brilliantly acknowledged with a great discussion in the morning on the legacy of Althea Gibson. Leslie Allen, Sloane Stephens, Kamau Murray and Boris Kodjoe were on the panel that was excellently moderated by Monica McNutt. Frances Tiafoe saw off big-serving qualifier Martin Damm in four sets. Big Foe had to stay patient, but took care of business on his side, served great and played smart against the lefty who he spoke highly of in press. Jasmine Paolini, playing her second night match in a row in New York, convincingly beat Iva Jovic in straight sets. The Italian seventh seed confirmed the dress was a night-session fit and spoke about her next opponent Marketa Vondrousova. Ben Shelton beat Pablo Carreno Busta in straights. The American looked very comfortable on Louis Armstrong and managed the match well which is something we put to him in his post-match presser.

On the final day of Wimbledon 2025, Jannik Sinner became the first Italian to win the singles tournament, and Catherine, David and Matt were live afterwards to react to his four set defeat of Carlos Alcaraz.In part one we talk over the manner of this win and how Sinner put paid to any suggestion of scar tissue from Paris with a focused and intelligent performance. We discuss Alcaraz's unmatchable brilliance at the end of the first set, and how Sinner's resilience allowed him to stay on task, break at the start of a second, and win clinically in four sets. There's speculation about what might happen next, with the incredible prospect of Sinner, Alcaraz - and Iga Swiatek - all heading into 2026 with the potential to complete a career slam before the age of 25. Will this rivalry between the two of them continue as a duopoly? Or is there a third player yet to emerge from their wake and challenge at the top?In part two (43m34s) we round up the other results from the day at Wimbledon, including a tense battle between Alfie Hewett and Tokito Oda for the men's wheelchair singles crown, and a thrilling women's doubles won by Mertens and Kudermetova over Hsieh and Ostapenko.Thus ends Wimbledon 2025! In part three (49m44s) we finish with a look back at our favourite memories from the past fortnight, and thanks to all those who have contributed to the making of our shows from the Championships.Become a Friend of The Tennis PodcastCheck out our ⁠⁠⁠new merch shop⁠⁠⁠!

Feeling hot, hot, hot! Wimbledon Day 1 is in the books, so why not join Joel and Chris at Tennis Weekly HQ to catch up on all the action from an enthralling opening day's play. Carlos Alcaraz had everyone sweating — and not just because of the weather — as he battled through a scratchy five-set win over Italian veteran Fabio Fognini, who hadn't won on the ATP Tour since October. The Brits also had a ball on Day 1, with a record seven players already through to Round 2. This included the top three British women — Raducanu, Boulter, and Kartal — with Boulter and Kartal both upsetting higher-seeded opponents in Badosa and former Grand Slam champion Ostapenko. The fairytale run of Oliver Tarvet continued too, as he set up a blockbuster Round 2 clash with Alcaraz — though he won't be able to keep any of his prize money.There were sad scenes as former finalist Ons Jabeur retired, announcing she would ‘disconnect' from tennis for now. Two-time semifinalist and recent Halle finalist Daniil Medvedev also bowed out unexpectedly. Meanwhile, Sabalenka and Gauff put their recent animosity behind them… with a TikTok dance. Join us as we look ahead to Day 2, with Sinner, Draper, and Djokovic all headlining the action!BABOLATBabolat are an official partner of Wimbledon and their Wimbledon collaboration collection is available to purchase now from babolat.com SOCIALSFollow us on Twitter, Instagram, TikTok and YouTube, plus email the show tennisweeklypod@gmail.com.MERCHPurchase Tennis Weekly Merch through our Etsy store including limited edition designs by Krippa Design where all proceeds go towards the podcast so we can keep doing what we do!REVIEWS***Please take a moment to rate and review the show on Apple Podcasts, Spotify or wherever you get your pods.

The gang's all here! Joel, Kim and Chris return to serve up all the drama from Round 2 of Roland-Garros 2025 — and what a rollercoaster it's been! It was heartbreak for the British women as all three bowed out, but there's still hope on the men's side with a surprise all-Brit clash now set between Fearnley and Norrie. Meanwhile, Jack Draper lit up the Parisian night in a sizzling showdown with crowd-favourite Gael Monfils — and did his best to dodge a 5th set thriller!Emotions ran high as French maestro Richard Gasquet bid adieu to the sport on Court Philippe-Chatrier, falling to World No. 1 Jannik Sinner. We look back at his fabulous career (and that oh-so-silky one-handed backhand!). Elsewhere, big names like Djokovic and Alcaraz powered on, while seeds Tsitsipas, Ruud, de Minaur, and Mensik suffered surprise exits. While British women are out — with Raducanu falling to queen of clay Iga Swiatek — the American charge is alive and swinging, with Gauff, Keys, and Kenin all cruising through (rackets in hand this time!). And don't miss our pick for Round 3: Ostapenko vs Rybakina — it's going to be fire!PROPERTY HUB INVESTIf you're serious about property, head to https://propertyhub.net/start to take your first step.SOCIALSFollow us on Twitter, Instagram, TikTok and YouTube, plus email the show tennisweeklypod@gmail.com.MERCHPurchase Tennis Weekly Merch through our Etsy store including limited edition designs by Krippa Design where all proceeds go towards the podcast so we can keep doing what we do!REVIEWS***Please take a moment to rate and review the show on Apple Podcasts, Spotify or wherever you get your pods.

Jimmy and Brett check in on the latest Masters 1000 in Madrid with Carlos Alcaraz having to pull out with an injury. Sasha Zverev bounced back after a not so great couple months with a big win in Munich beating American Ben Shelton in the finals. Holger Rune showed what he's capable of by winning Barcelona and beating fellow young gun Alcaraz in the finals in straight sets. Brett's favorite, Jelena Ostapenko cruised through the draw in Stuttgart beating the world #1 & #2 along the way. The former Roland Garros champ was an underdog in all 5 of her matches and drove off in a brand new Porsche with the trophy.

What a fun week on tour! Holger Rune claims the title in Barcelona with some great wins along the way, eventually beating Alcaraz to lift the trophy and jump in the pool! Both tours were in Germany last week with Zverev winning the title in Munich over Ben Shelton, while Ostapenko improves to 6-0 against Iga Swiatek and then finishes her title run with impressive win over Sabalenka! I guess Aryna will have to buy her own Porsche now if she can't win one! Better luck next year!

Catherine, David and Matt cover the main headlines from tournaments in Stuttgart, Rouen, Barcelona and Munich. Part one - WTA Results. Jelena Ostapenko wins Stuttgart and becomes the third woman this year to beat Iga Swiatek and Aryna Sabalenka in the same event. We discuss her incredible form, Sabalenka's final performance, Ostapenko's now 6-0 head to head against Swiatek, and what it all means as Roland Garros approaches. There's also chat about Elina Svitolina winning Rouen and a dreadful moment from Harriet Dart. Part two - ATP Results (from 33m). Holger Rune won his first title in two years, beating a physically compromised Carlos Alcaraz in the final. We discuss Rune's strategy, an extraordinary trophy ceremony, and Alexander Zverev rediscovering his form to win the title in Munich. Part three - A look ahead to Madrid (from 54m).

Catherine, David and Matt discuss the start of the clay court season, headlined by victories for Jessica Pegula and Jenson Brooksby. Part one - WTA Results. Pegula shows her toughness and her variety to win the first clay court title of her career in Charleston over Sofia Kenin. We discuss her reascension to American number one and compare her career with players like Jelena Ostapenko and Sofia Kenin who have won a slam but don't have her consistency. Plus, Camila Osorio wins Bogota for the third time. Part two - ATP Results (from 30m). Brooskby saves match point in three different matches to win the first title of his career in Houston. We discuss his return to the tour, why we enjoy watching him play, and his final victory over Frances Tiafoe. There's also chat about Flavio Cobolli not only snapping his 8-match losing run, but doing so by winning the title in Bucharest. Part three - News (from 50m27s). Top players send a letter to the Grand Slams asking for more prize money, so what does that mean for the PTPA lawsuit? There's also change at the top of the ATP, Coco Gauff leaving Team8, and a look ahead to Monte Carlo and the Billie Jean King Cup qualifiers this week.

Tennis, stop. Give us a minute, my God. The chaotic February schedule gives us a first-time 1000 title winner (Anisimova), a first-time ATP titlist (Fonseca), Ostapenko's fifth unanswered defeat of Swiatek, and Bencic winning a big title soon after her return from maternity leave.
