  • Summary

  • Mark Knowles returns to the podcast to discuss why he got back in the coaching game, and how his partnership with Jessica Pegula culminated in a run to the US Open Final. Knowles also dives into all the storylines in the men's game, with Carlos Alcaraz finding his joy again during the Asian Swing, and Novak Djokovic returning to action in Shanghai. The former doubles #1 covers Daniil Medvedev's complaints about the tennis balls, Taylor Fritz's ability to compete, and more from the ATP. And then Jacob Fearnley joins the show for an interview about the scorching hot start to his pro career, in which the TCU graduate has won three straight ATP Challenger events to earn a place in the Top 100. Fearnley shares some stories from his time at TCU, and reminisces on his matchup against Novak Djokovic at Wimbledon. The third highest ranked British player also chats about his friendship with Jack Draper, his interests off of the court, and what the next step in his blossoming career looks like. The podcast concludes with another fun chat with Blair Henley, the emcee extraordinaire who is now one of the main voices that introduces players at the US Open. Henley recaps her summer in New York talking to the best players in the world, and reflects on her interview with the icon, Roger Federer. The announcer also breaks down Coco Gauff's triumph at the Beijing 1000 event, Karolina Muchova's exciting game, and the current strife on the men's game between the umpires and some prominent players.
