Grass season is about halfway done, and I don't know what's going on with the WTA (wishing them luck). Big results for Noskova – who just debuted in the top 10 – plus Robin Montgomery, Ben Shelton, Donna Vekic, and the Frans! The news that Serena Williams received the remaining Wimbledon singles wild card trumped everything this week, while her husband hung out at Trump's UFC abomination. Recent Wimbledon champ Marketa Vondrousova was given a 4-year suspension for refusing a doping test in December, a decision that will almost certainly be appealed. Lastly, we give some final thoughts on the Knicks and go down the Stevie rabbit hole again. 1:00 Yep, that singles wild card was for #thismama  14:10 Berlin bagel + it was a good week to be a Fran 24:30 Previous week's results: s-'Hertogenbosch, Stuttgart, Queen's 27:30 Diving into Marketa Vondrousova's 4-year suspension  36:30 Alexis, your presence wasn't actually required 40:50 Corentin Moutet gives up his prize money for what, exactly? 43:00 Catching up with the Knicks and Victor Wembanyama  48:20 Remembering Peabo and igniting the Stevie discussion again

Jimmy and Brett discuss Francis Tiafoe winning the all American final in Halle, for the biggest title of his career. Marketa Vondrousova refused her most recent doping test which has landed her a 4 years suspension from the WTA tour. The inconsistencies in doping punishment continue in the tennis world. Wyndham Clark led wire to wire at Shinnecock Hills to capture his second US Open trophy in 4 years. He held off hecklers in the New York crowd and Sam Burns down the stretch. Wimbledon is just around the corner and the odds to win are more spread out on the ladies side compared to the gentlemen. Who do you have winning it this year?

Serena Williams will be back at Wimbledon playing singles for the first time since 2022!At 44 years old, she played some really good tennis with Mboko before the Canadian injured her knee at Queens. This decision to come back and even play singles at the most well-known tennis tournament in the world is intriguing: what does she want to get from this?While it's practically impossible to see Serena winning Wimbledon, especially after her last win coming seven years ago, plus her age, I still can't complain. She will be back, she will be roaring, involved and full of energy in a way only Serena Williams can be.I hope for at least one win. It will be EPIC.I also talk a bit about how so many promising young women are making good progress on the grass this year, notably Berlin champion Linda Noskova, Berlin semi-finalist (l. Noskova) Alex Eala, and 2021 US Open champion Emma Raducanu. All players with very different styles, different career trajectories, but with great potential to make the next 10-15 years at the WTA be really awesome and competitive.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.

Aujourd'hui je partage ouvertement mon avis sur Serena Williams, et on analyse les résultats classiques de la semaine Hébergé par Ausha. Visitez ausha.co/politique-de-confidentialite pour plus d'informations.

Fresh off the most heartbreaking exit of her career. Alex Eala vs Elise Mertens at the Bad Homburg Open 2026 is round one redemption — and we have the full Eala vs Mertens prediction, preview, and tactical breakdown right here.Eala's incredible Berlin run ended in the semi-finals against Noskova, just one match short of a maiden WTA 500 final — but along the way she beat two Top 10 players and posted the best grass court season of her career, nine wins against only two losses. Now she opens Bad Homburg against Elise Mertens, the same player who beat her 6-2, 6-1 on clay in Madrid back in April. This time it's grass — the surface where Eala has been nearly unstoppable all season. The Eala vs Mertens Bad Homburg Open 2026 round of 32 is a rematch with a completely different surface and a completely different Eala walking onto the court. Eala even had to withdraw from her planned doubles pairing with Venus Williams just to be fit and ready for this campaign.Can Eala carry her grass court breakthrough into instant revenge over Mertens? Or does the experienced Belgian, a former world number 12 with 35 career titles, prove too difficult again?

he revenge match the Berlin crowd has been waiting for. Linda Noskova vs Alex Eala at the Berlin Open 2026 is a semi-final loaded with history — and we have the full Noskova vs Eala prediction, preview, and tactical breakdown right here.Eala has been unstoppable this week — back-to-back Top 10 wins over Rybakina and Svitolina, her sixth career Top 10 scalp, and her second ever grass court semi-final. But Noskova is the player who has caused her the most pain on tour. Their only previous senior meeting was a brutal 6-2, 6-0 demolition at Indian Wells, and Eala has won just one match against a Czech opponent in her entire career. The Noskova vs Eala Berlin Open 2026 semi-final is the biggest test yet of whether the Filipina's grass court breakthrough is real — against the one player who has dominated her completely. The winner reaches Sunday's final against Sabalenka or Pegula.Can Eala finally end her Czech nightmare and reverse the Indian Wells beatdown on the surface that has made her unstoppable this week? Or does Noskova prove once again that she simply has Eala's number?

Le 2 novembre 2021, une joueuse de tennis publie un message explosif sur les réseaux sociaux chinois. Vingt minutes plus tard, le message disparaît. Puis la joueuse aussi. Pendant près de trois semaines, personne ne sait où elle se trouve. Ni ses proches, ni le circuit professionnel, ni même la WTA. Ce qui semblait au départ être un simple scandale va rapidement devenir l'une des affaires les plus troublantes de l'histoire du tennis moderne. Des championnes prennent la parole, des légendes s'indignent, et pour la première fois, le monde du tennis croit pouvoir tenir tête à l'un des pays les plus puissants de la planète. Mais cette histoire ne parle pas seulement d'une disparition. Elle révèle les limites du pouvoir du sport, le poids des intérêts économiques et le silence qui peut s'installer lorsque les enjeux dépassent les courts. Voici l'histoire de la disparition de Peng Shuai, une affaire que le tennis préférerait peut-être oublier. #PengShuai #WhereIsPengShuai #Tennis

Catherine and David are rejoined by Matt, who's back from Chicago, to catch up on the week's results so far and speculate about whether Serena Williams will play more than just doubles at Wimbledon. Part one (00:00 - 25:45) - We start with Wimbledon's wildcard decisions. Is a spot being saved for Serena to play singles? Do we think she will take it? Is that something we would like to see? And why does it feel wrong that Dan Evans has been snubbed? Part two - WTA (25:46 - 53:00). We discuss Alexandra Eala's brilliant win over Elena Rybakina, emotional scenes for Paula Badosa after she beat Coco Gauff in Berlin, and why this grass court season feels big for Aryna Sabalenka. Plus, are Madison Keys and Karolina Pliskova dormant volcanoes who are beginning to rumble? Part three - ATP (53:01 - 1:22:03). On the men's side, are Tommy Paul and Alex de Minaur on a collision course at Queen's? Was Corentin Moutet being funny or rude with his f-bomb heavy interview? And who's going to come through a competitive field in Halle?

Monica Puig joins the podcast to discuss the changing of seasons in the tennis world, with the pros heading to the grass as the race to Wimbledon intensifies. Puig recaps her time covering Roland Garros, and shares her thoughts on the crucial next step for champions Alexander Zverev and Mirra Andreeva. The Olympic Gold Medalist ponders how Jannik Sinner and Aryna Sabalenka can regroup after faltering in Paris, and explains what to expect from Serena Williams in her inspiring comeback to the game. Puig also recaps last week's big storylines on the grass, with Ben Shelton defeating Taylor Fritz for the trophy in Stuttgart and emerging as a threat at Wimbledon. The former WTA pro reacts to Donna Vekic's triumph at Queen's Club, Emma Raducanu's encouraging run to a final, and American Robin Montgomery winning her first WTA tournament. And Puig dives into the nuances of getting your body ready for grass court tennis, and whether handshakes are a requirement in the world of tennis. Hosted by Mitch Michals.

C'est l'une des interrogations de cette saison 2026, que vaut Joao Fonseca sur gazon ? Le Brésilien n'a aucune référence puisqu'il ne dispute que sa deuxième saison sur cette surface qui est loin d'être sa spécialité. 24ème joueur mondial, l'Auriverde ne peut plus se contenter de performer sur dur ou sur terre battue comme à Paris où il a atteint les quarts de finale en sortant notamment Novak Djokovic. Fonseca doit devenir un joueur tout-terrain et performer sur herbe où Wimbledon l'attend d'ici deux semaines. FFonseca a manqué son premier rendez-vous à Halle en étant sèchement battu par Jannick Hanfmann 6/2 6/2. Il ne restera donc qu'un tournoi à Eastbourne pour Fonseca avant Wimbledon ou il n'a jamais dépassé le 3ème tour. Le jeu de Joao Fonseca peut-il être compatible avec la spécificité du gazon ?Nous évoquerons aussi les tournois de Halle du Queen's et de Berlin sans oublier les pronostics. Ce podcast est hébergé par Podcastics, la plateforme pour créer et diffuser votre podcast facilement.

The wildcard who's lost only twice on grass all year against the world number two who can't find her form. Alex Eala vs Elena Rybakina at the Berlin Open 2026 is a round of 16 rematch with massive Wimbledon stakes — and we have the full Eala vs Rybakina prediction, preview, and tactical breakdown right here.Eala just beat Vekic 7-5, 6-4 to continue her remarkable grass court season — her seventh win on the surface in 2026, fresh off a Birmingham title. She is a wildcard ranked world number 35, and she is dangerous. Rybakina enters as the second seed, but she has an alarming 5-5 record across her last ten matches and has never reached a Berlin semi-final in four attempts. The two last met at the Italian Open in May, where Rybakina won in straight sets on clay. This time it's grass — the surface where Eala has been nearly unbeatable and where two of the last three Berlin champions have been left-handed, just like her. The Eala vs Rybakina Berlin Open 2026 round of 16 clash is the biggest test yet of Eala's grass court breakthrough season.Can Eala reverse her Rome defeat and pull off the upset of the grass court season so far? Or does Rybakina's class and power finally show up at exactly the right moment?

Send us Fan MailEpisode 35: Roland Garros 2026 Recap & The Grass Court Swing BeginsWe're back with a Roland Garros week two recap that had us screaming, crying, and everything in between. Mirra Andreeva claimed her first Grand Slam title at 19, dropping only 17 games in the second week and accepting the trophy in a custom Nike jacket that read "I'd like to thank myself" — because she absolutely should. Meanwhile, qualifier Maja Chwalińska became only the second player in Open Era history to reach a Grand Slam final as a qualifier, jumping from ranked 114 to number 21 overnight, getting a hero's welcome at the Warsaw airport, and somehow almost running out of money for her hotel mid-tournament. Her story — which includes a very public battle with depression in 2021 and a decision to come back to tennis on her own terms — is one of the most moving in recent memory. We also send our love to Hailey Baptiste, who suffered a torn ACL and meniscus in her second round match and has been sharing her recovery journey with breathtaking honesty. On the brighter side, Karolína Siniaková and Taylor Townsend are one US Open title away from a career Grand Slam together, and their post-win press conference might be the most wholesome four minutes of the year.We then head to the grass court swing, where the palate cleanser we all desperately needed arrived in the form of Serena Williams making her competitive return after 1,375 days away. She and Vicky Mboko upset the third seeds at Queen's Club and reminded us all why tennis is worth watching. We break down Donna Vekic going from lucky loser to champion, the deeply pointed wildcard snub of defending Queen's Club champion Tatjana Maria, Alex Eala's win in Birmingham, and Robin Montgomery winning a WTA title in the Netherlands ranked 484th in the world. Resh also delivers an important journalism moment: a full breakdown of why Wimbledon grass and football grass are about as similar as clay and hard court, and why that actually matters for how the ball behaves.In our Five Minutes with the 5%, we talk about Flavio Cobolli — the charming, superstitious, emotionally open 24-year-old from Florence who nearly upset Zverev* in a five-set Roland Garros final and who we are officially rooting for. We also address the men's champion, Alexander Zverev*, with a content warning for domestic violence — including why L'Équipe made the deliberate editorial choice not to put him on their front page after his win. We close out with the ongoing prize money fight (Wimbledon just announced a 20% increase, but players say it's not enough), the rumored Serena/Venus mixed doubles pairing with Sinner and Alcaraz at the US Open, and Resh and Stef's ongoing appreciation for women coaching women across tennis, the WNBA, and the NWSL.Next episode: our Wimbledon preview and thoughts on the Rafa Nadal documentary.

WTA Weekly – Queen's Club Review & Berlin/Nottingham Preview Welcome to WTA Weekly. This week, the grass-court season delivered one of its best stories as Donna Vekic completed a remarkable run to win the Queen's Club title in London. Entering the tournament as a lucky loser after falling in qualifying, Vekic took full advantage of her second chance and capped the week with a 6-0, 7-6(6) victory over home favourite Emma Raducanu in the final. Vekic dominated the opening set before Raducanu fought back impressively in the second. The Brit recovered from a difficult start, built a lead, and even held set points, but Vekic's experience on grass proved decisive in a tense tiebreak. The Croatian eventually converted her fifth championship point to secure her first title in several years. Despite the loss, Raducanu leaves Queen's with plenty of positives. After an injury- and illness-disrupted season, she reached the final without dropping a set before Sunday and recorded victories over multiple top players. Her form suggests she could be a dangerous contender during the remainder of the grass swing and at Wimbledon. As for Vekic, the title continues a remarkable turnaround. She only entered the main draw after a late withdrawal created a lucky-loser spot, yet she navigated the field brilliantly and now heads into Wimbledon full of confidence. Looking ahead, attention shifts to the WTA 500 event in Berlin, one of the strongest grass-court tournaments outside Wimbledon. The field is expected to feature many of the tour's top players, making it a crucial test before the Championships. Meanwhile, the WTA event in Nottingham offers another opportunity for players to gain valuable grass-court matches and ranking points. With Wimbledon just around the corner, every match becomes increasingly important as players fine-tune their games for the year's biggest grass-court event. That's all for this week's WTA Weekly. The road to Wimbledon is heating up, and after Vekic's incredible lucky-loser triumph at Queen's, the grass season has already shown that anything can happen. Learn more about your ad choices.

How do you double the size of a major sporting venue, rebuild its technology foundation, and still deliver a seamless experience for hundreds of thousands of fans? Recording from Cisco Live, I spoke with Robert Nichols, Principal Technical Architect for the Cincinnati Open, about the enormous undertaking behind one of the most respected tournaments in professional tennis. As an ATP Masters 1000 and WTA 1000 event, the Cincinnati Open recently completed a $260 million expansion that increased the campus from 20 to 40 acres, all while working against a deadline that could not be moved. Our conversation explores what happens behind the scenes when nearly 300,000 visitors arrive expecting every aspect of the event to work flawlessly. From ticket scanning and connectivity to food service, hospitality, broadcasting, security, and crowd management, every part of the operation depends on infrastructure that most fans never think about. Robert explains how the team approached modernization without losing the qualities that have made the tournament special for generations. Accessibility, proximity to the players, and a welcoming atmosphere remain central to the Cincinnati Open experience, even as the venue continues to grow. We also discuss occupancy analytics, connected cameras, wireless networking across 40 acres, and how data helps organizers make better operational decisions throughout the tournament. Along the way, Robert shares insights into the scale of planning required to support one of the largest events in professional tennis. Looking ahead, we examine how AI and automation could influence the future of live events, helping organizers improve operations while keeping the focus firmly on the fan experience. Whether you're interested in sports, technology, operations, or large-scale event management, this episode offers a rare look at what it takes to deliver an event watched by millions worldwide. What part of a live sporting event do you think requires the most coordination behind the scenes?

Capítulo de cierre grabado el mismo domingo de la final masculina, todavía masticando lo que acabamos de ver. Felipe conduce con Martín de vuelta del periplo parisino y el regreso de Hugo Romero después de varias semanas ausente (con gorrito de Rafa para la ocasión).Alexander Zverev finalmente levanta un Grand Slam. Más de cuatro horas, cinco sets, nervios a tope de ambos lados y los recuerdos de Vietnam siempre rondando (Tien en US Open, Alcaraz en RG 2024). Analizamos el partido set por set: el 6-1 demoledor del primer set en 39 minutos, el quiebre emocional del segundo set donde Cobolli encuentra los golpes, el tercer set chicoteado con un break point salvado de 23 shots, el cuarto donde Sacha se quiebra solo con dobles faltas, y el quinto set donde el quiebre clave en el 3-0 con tres break points en contra termina sellando el título.Antes del cierre, también la final femenina del sábado. Mirra Andreeva a los 19 años cumple con las expectativas largamente acumuladas y vence a Maja Chwalinska, la polaca lucky loser que vino desde la quali sin sponsor y casi sin hotel, tapando bocas durante dos semanas. Conchita Martínez como coach detrás del juego españolizado de Andreeva, paciencia y construcción.Y el debate que se viene: ¿dónde queda Zverev en el legado del tenis? Hugo y Felipe lo ponen bajo Medvedev (ser número uno pesa). Más las evaluaciones de pronósticos previos (todos nos caímos feo en algún momento), revelaciones (los italianos Cobolli y Arnaldi, jodar a pesar de la caída, el holandés de Jong como lucky loser hasta octavos), decepciones (Tsitsipas, Shelton y Fritz), la despedida de Stan Wawrinka, el campeón junior brasileño y la mira puesta en la temporada de pasto.Síguenos en Instagram @lucklosers_podcast Twitter @LuckyLoserscast  @luckyloserstenis Youtube https://www.youtube.com/@luckyloserspodcast8246

On this Roland-Garros finals edition of Something Major, John Isner, Sam Querrey, and Steve Johnson recap a dramatic men's final as Alexander Zverev wins his first Grand Slam, regrouping after a tense fourth-set tiebreak and cruising 6-1 in the fifth to beat Cobolli. They also discuss what the title means for his legacy and Hall of Fame case. They debate whether Zverev can add more majors with Sinner and Alcaraz looming, then shift to the women's final where Andreeva wins easily in straight sets ending the Cinderella run from Chwalinska and sparking debate about Andreeva's place among the WTA elite. They also share behind-the-scenes Roland-Garros TV moments, conclude their bracket contest winners.00:00 Intro00:17 Roland Garros Recap Setup01:30 Final Match Breakdown02:37 Fourth Set Turning Point03:16 Bathroom Break Reset06:27 Pressure Off In Fifth08:32 Hall Of Fame Resume10:04 More Majors Debate12:05 Sweaty Shirt Rant14:10 Sam Gets Roasted Live15:44 Cobolli Future Outlook20:25 Was The Event Meh21:53 Andreeva Ends Cinderella Run23:12 Why Fans Loved Poland Garros25:03 Is Andreeva Top Tier Now28:01 Wimbledon Wildcard Debate29:29 Roland Garros Green Room Stories32:10 Bracket Punishments And Results35:28 Winners Prizes And Wrap Up

Maja Chwalinska face à Mirra Andreeva, c'est donc l'affiche du Grand Chelem parisien, et sans surprise on peut annoncer que c'est une affiche inédite et totalement inattendue.La Polonaise issue des qualifications va-t-elle redescendre de son nuage et sera t-elle ramenée sur terre par la Russe aujourd'hui ? C'est bien sûr la question que toute le monde se pose ? Chwalinska, c'est le retour du romantisme avec un tennis atypique que l'on adore, problème ce tennis va-t-il s'exploser face à celui de Mirra Andreeva. La prodige russe n'a que 19 ans mais on a toujours l'impression qu'elle est sur le circuit depuis 10 ans. Pour elle, c'est une première finale de Grand Chelem et la seule question que l'on se pose, c'est de savoir si elle sera trahie par ses nerfs ? On débat et on pronostique cette finale dans "Sans Filet".  Dans la suite de "Sans Filet", nous reviendrons sur la qualification pour la finale d'Alexander Zverev au dépend de Jakub Mensik, l'Allemand retrouvera Flavio Cobolli qui a bénéficié du forfait de Luciano Darderi. Ce podcast est hébergé par Podcastics, la plateforme pour créer et diffuser votre podcast facilement.

Brett and Jimmy check in from vacation to give their opinions on all the craziness going on in Paris at Roland Garros. If Sascha Zverev can't win his first major now then it might never happen. He is the dominant favorite to come out with the trophy but will old demons creep in at the worst time? Aryna Sabalenka once again failed to finish in a grand slam match where she was in total control. This has become a unfortunate trend for the world #1 the past two years. It's a crazy dichotomy where on one hand she is by far the most dominant player on the WTA tour, but also has a hard time taking advantage of her chances to add to her grand slam total. Flavio Cobolli faces off against fellow Italian Matteo Arnaldi in the top half semi making for a great opportunity for both players to make it further that they have ever been before. Can Mirra Andreeva conquer her Roland Garros demons from last year by coming out on top of the women's side?

Martín Letelier vuelve de París con polerita oficial, raqueta, mochila llena de stickers y una experiencia para contar de pe a pa. Felipe conduce y se transforma en oyente privilegiado mientras Martín relata su primer Grand Slam: el "Disneyland del tenis", el ballotage de Roland Garros, las entradas de 34 euros (sí, leíste bien), el ground pass que te deja entrar a Philippe Chatrier si no está lleno, la estatua de Nadal en la entrada con las 14 finales grabadas, y la batalla épica de gritos entre la dupla francesa y los pocos chilenos en una cancha auxiliar viendo a Tabilo jugar dobles.Después hablamos de tenis. La amarga derrota de Tabilo contra Félix en octavos, la baja providencial de Vacherot que abrió el camino, y la polémica con Séptimo Game cuestionando que Tabilo jugara dobles el día anterior (Martín le rebate punto por punto). La caída de Sinner con la teoría caballerosa de Martín, "la final del mundo" Djokovic vs Fonseca y la confianza que se construye al ganarle a un grande, el regreso anunciado de Serena Williams a los 46, las notas de Caterina con Sabalenka como favorita clara, Iga eliminada y la promesa de Marta Kostiuk.Y la evaluación de los cuartos de final pronosticados: la sección 1 fue un desastre total (¿alguien tenía a Berrettini vs Arnaldi?), la sección 2 cumplió con Félix vs Cobolli, en la sección 3 nos jugamos a Fonseca vs Mensik y en la sección 4 acertamos con Zverev vs Jodar (con la triste vuelta a la realidad del español). Cierre con la pregunta del millón: ¿quién gana este Roland Garros tan abierto?Síguenos en Instagram @lucklosers_podcast Twitter @LuckyLoserscast  @luckyloserstenis Youtube https://www.youtube.com/@luckyloserspodcast8246

Send us Fan MailWeek 1 of Roland Garros delivered pure unhinged energy, and Resh and Stef were SCREAMING — recording live together in San Francisco for the first time in two years. The biggest WTA story? Clayomi. Naomi Osaka walked out in a Germanier x Nike couture collab ("I look like the Eiffel Tower at night"), made it to the fourth round for the first time in her Roland Garros career, and co-hosted an invite-only Black Party at Soho House Paris with Taylor Townsend. She's serving on and off the court, and the haters (hi, Laura Siegemund) can sit down. Meanwhile, Resh's pick Coco Gauff — the defending champion — lost a gut-punch third-rounder to Potapova, Hailey Baptiste went down with ACL and meniscus injuries at her career peak, and Victoria Mboko broke our hearts in a three-setter against Madison Keys. Also: it sounds like Serena Williams may be coming back to tennis as soon as next week. This is not a drill.On the men's side, the Chaos Slam claimed its biggest victim when top seed Jannik Sinner — up two sets and 5-1 — melted in the sun and lost to the less known Cerundolo in five. The sun remains undefeated. Bright spots: 21-year-old Stanford data science student Nishesh Basavareddy upset 7-seed Taylor Fritz with cold-blooded drop shots, 17-year-old Moïse Kwame became the youngest player to win a Roland Garros match since 1991 (his prize money is locked in a bank until his 18th birthday, because France), and João Fonseca closed out a five-set win over Djokovic on three straight aces like it was nothing.We also need to talk about ATP player Adolfo Daniel Vallejo, who blamed his loss on female umpire Ana Carvalho — a silver badge professional and one of the best in the world — claiming she lacked the "strength" to handle the crowd. Roland Garros fined him and issued a statement. We revisit the Hurkacz 2024 incident, the Fognini 2017 incident, and note that Roland Garros's allyship would land harder if women's matches were ever scheduled in prime time. Heading into week 2: Sabalenka and Iga are the top contenders (despite the hosts' predictions), the Ukrainian sweep is still mathematically alive, and Naomi faces Sabalenka in what is absolutely must-watch Monday tennis.Support the showInstagram : Out_Wide_PodcastJingle : https://www.nelaruizcomposer.com/Logo: https://www.instagram.com/crayonspaghetti/

Zach Heinzerling, the Emmy-winning, Oscar-nominated director behind Netflix's new four-part documentary series Rafa. The series follows Rafael Nadal across the final year of his career, from his 2024 return through his retirement, while reaching back across two decades to tell the fuller story of one of the most decorated and most physically punished athletes in the history of tennis. The series goes beyond the 22 Grand Slams and 14 French Open titles to reveal what it cost to win them: a rare, incurable foot condition called Müller-Weiss syndrome, diagnosed when Rafa was just nineteen; years of aggressive medical intervention that left him with perforated intestines; and a 2022 Roland Garros run played on a foot deadened by nerve-blocking injections. For the first time on camera, Rafa removes his sock and shows the foot itself — an image he had guarded from the public for twenty years. The series also explores the formative role of his uncle and longtime coach Toni Nadal, whose tough-love methods shaped Rafa from the age of three; the anxiety and ritual beneath the on-court persona; and the rivalries with Roger Federer and Novak Djokovic that defined a generation, including the now-famous Laver Cup farewell where Rafa and Federer sat side by side and wept. Featuring testimony from Federer, Djokovic, John McEnroe, and the family, coaches, and inner circle who have stood beside Nadal his entire career, Rafa is less a highlight reel than a portrait of a champion in negotiation with his own body — and an answer, or an attempt at one, to the question of why he kept playing long after that body told him to stop.

The 2026 FIFA World Cup is fast approaching, and Thomas Tuchel has finalized his England squad for the tournament. Frank and Eddie analyze some of his selections. Eddie explains that he understands that the inclusion of Henderson, Madueke, and Gordon shows that Tuchel wants a squad that fits his system, but will it work?  The Premier League season wrapped up with Arsenal as champions, Manchester City slipping up again, and Spurs narrowly avoiding relegation at the expense of West Ham. Roland Garros is underway in Paris, with some of the world's top players on both the ATP and WTA tours protesting prize money, but Eddie thinks they're being tone-deaf with some of their complaints.  Plus, Hull beat Middlesbrough in the Championship playoff final following the controversy of 'spygate'. The Enhanced Games failed to deliver many world records, and would you go out of your way to attend a championship parade? 

Avec Arthur Fils, il est le grand espoir tricolore de ces prochaines années. Moïse Kouamé disputait hier son premier match dans un tournoi du Grand Chelem. Et c'est chez lui, à Paris, que le Français a décidé de signer sa toute première victoire dans un Majeur. Nombreuses sont les personnes à rappeler son âge et le fait qu'il était peut-être trop tôt pour bénéficier d'une invitation de la part de la Fédération Française de Tennis, mais Moïse Kouamé a prouvé qu'il avait sa place dans le tableau principal du Grand Chelem parisien en dominant Marin Cilic. Kouamé a été bluffant ? Que faut-il attendre de lui ? Doit-on être exigeant avec lui ?

Catherine, David and Matt convened for a live show to discuss Elina Svitolina crowning one of the all-time great title runs, Jannik Sinner completing his set of all the Masters titles, and what it all means for Paris. Part one - WTA (00:00 - 33:48). What made the final between Svitolina and Coco Gauff so compelling? How did Svitolina's victory show off her evolution as a player? And what's the status of The Mix heading into Roland Garros? Part two - ATP (33:49 - 1:13:22) We cover Sinner's tough semi-final win over Daniil Medvedev and his more straightforward victory in the final against Casper Ruud. Could he win all the Masters 1000 events this year? How much mental and physical fatigue is he battling? And who - or what - can stop Sinner is Paris?Part three - The week ahead (1:13:23 - 1:26:33).

Catherine, David and Matt review an eventful few days of action in Rome and look ahead to finals weekend. Part one - WTA (00:00 - 44:40). We discuss how Elina Svitolina and Coco Gauff have both reached the final, including Svitolina's remarkable wins on back-to-back nights over Elena Rybakina and Iga Swiatek, as well as Gauff's battling victory over Mirra Andreeva and gradual improvement in form. Who has the edge in the final? Plus, we analyse Swiatek's tournament and wonder what it means for Roland Garros, and we hear Pam Shriver's observations from her time coaching in Rome. Part two - ATP (44:41 - 1:15:10). We start with Jannik Sinner's record-breaking run as he sweeps through the field while managing some fatigue. But there's plenty of chaos around Sinner to discuss, including a thrilling win for Daniil Medvedev against Martin Landaluce, a late-night, smoke-interrupted epic between Luciano Darderi and Rafael Jodar, and some very graceless quotes from Alexander Zverev. There's collective joy that Arthur Fils will be fit for Roland Garros and sadness that Lorenzo Musetti has withdrawn. Part three - News (1:15:11 - 1:37:03). We react to the news that Andy Murray will coach Jack Draper for the grass court season and give our thoughts on Carlos Alcaraz's Vanity Fair cover.

4x Grand Slam champion Kim Clijsters and tennis reporter Blair Henley are joined by WTA pro and model Carson Branstine to discuss the realities of life on tour outside the top 100. Carson, currently recovering from a torn labrum, opens up about funding her career without a coach or physio, her viral TikTok calling out player welfare failures, and how she balances tennis with modeling and a new finance venture. Kim adds perspective from her time on the WTA board and her own battles with the tour's injury fine system.  Kim and Blair also break down a busy week in Rome: Sorana Cirstea beating Sabalenka at 36 years old and reconsidering her retirement and Coco Gauff's admission of off-court struggles. They also weigh in on Project Red Eye, the player-led push for greater Grand Slam revenue sharing, and the story of Ukrainian player Oleksandra Oliynykova, who is using her platform to raise funds for the Ukrainian military. Kim closes with a tactical breakdown of Iga Swiatek's backhand slice, explaining why it has become one of the most effective weapons on tour heading into Roland Garros. Welcome to Love All!

Charlie brings us up to speed on the latest stand off between the top players and the Grand Slams over prize money, and Aryna Sabalenka's bold claim that the players are prepared to boycott in order to achieve the revenue share they think they deserve. Is it all hot air? Do the players have a point or are they being greedy?Part two - WTA (16:41 - 50:09). After Charlie explains the bizarre circumstances around Emma Raducanu's pre tournament withdrawal, we get into the nitty gritty of the women's results so far, including a shock early defeat and injury scare for the World Number One Sabalenka. Part three - ATP (50:09). Injury and illness drama also dominated the early stages of the men's event, with Djokovic compromised by stomach issues and Dino Prizmic capitalising in spectacular fashion. Is Dino finally happening? And is there anyone left standing between Darth Sinner and a maiden title in Rome?Become a ⁠Friend of The Tennis Podcast⁠: https://bit.ly/FriendOfTheTennisPodcastCheck out our ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠new merch shop⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠: https://www.thetennispodcast.net/shopSign up to receive our free ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Newsletter⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ (daily at Slams and weekly the rest of the year, featuring Matt's Stat, mascot photos, Fantasy League updates, and more): http://eepurl.com/gbmzRXFollow us on ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Instagram⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ (@thetennispodcast): / djqzbwwmk.

Catherine, David and Matt are joined by The Athletic's Matt Futterman to discuss finals weekend in Madrid and what it might all mean for Roland Garros. Part one - ATP (00:00 - 38:00). We start with Jannik Sinner's demolition of Alexander Zverev and what it told us about their match up and the gap between Sinner and everyone else in the field in the absence of Carlos Alcaraz. Why was Zverev so poor in the final? Is Sinner in a mix of one at Roland Garros? And who or what might be his biggest obstacles? Part two - WTA (38:01 - 1:05:01). We discuss Marta Kostyuk winning the biggest title of her career over Mirra Andreeva, the keys to that victory, and whether this puts her in contention to win in Paris. Plus, can Andreeva learn to do that really hard thing of separating self-worth from results, and why does The Mix feel bigger on the women's side? Part three - Rome preview (1:05:02 - 1:22:11) Full details of the Mike Dickson Award can be found here. Become a ⁠Friend of The Tennis Podcast⁠Check out our ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠new merch shop⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠!
