What's next with WTA star and Player Council Member...

Behind the Racquet Pod ·

2020/03/24

Two caveats here: 1) As we always want to point out, nothing is more important than the health and well-being of our society. This discussion is meant to look at some of the tennis issues surrounding how the sport is affected by Coronavirus. 2) Noah and Mike had some technical issues that we couldn't quite solve, so we had to record this one over skype, so the audio quality is not what we'd like to have. Gaby Dabrowski was a delight. She takes us inside some of the WTA Player Council discussions

The caveats are important here. Nothing, in terms of discussing the what ifs of tennis, matters as much as the health of humans, and how we move forward as a society. That being said, Mike and Noah talk a bit this week about how they're personally being impacted, and how the decision making processes by the various entities in the sport are drastically underrepresenting its players. Personal note from Mike: Apologies for not properly thanking all of our incredible patreon supporters in this week's

Behind the Racquet Pod ·

2020/03/09

Noah jumps about 25 spots in the rankings after a GREAT week in Indian Wells. Naturally, he's headed to Hawaii. And yes, the coronavirus is weighing heavily on our minds. First, both of us are quite aware that the human toll, in casualties, illnesses, and the like are far more important. But the impact that tennis players outside the top 50 feel, are similar to the impacts that many of our listeners feel. So we riff on it for a bit. Learn more about your ad choices.
