It doesn’t happen often, certainly not to Grigor. But yes, he got double-bagel’d in Monte Carlo in 44 minutes. Says Wilander, “trust me, it happens to the best of us!”
And, Racquet Sports Professionals Association (RSPA) CEO Brian Dillman joins the show to talk about the plans going forward for the former USPTA.
Is Men’s tennis losing its footing? Is the sport a little out of balance? Says Wilander, “We’ve been here before and the game came out stronger. Hopefully these times lead to a similar outcome.”
And, “hey Jonny, what’s with this Colton Smith?” And of course, Mensik gets more than just a mention!
A rare sit-down with Andre Agassi
On March 15th, AZ sat down with Andre Agassi at Phoenix Country Club during Jonny’s Arizona Tennis Classic (ATP Challenger), for 30 minutes of vintage Andre.
Insightful, entertaining, and candid as always. It was a great crowd, and Agassi did not disappoint.
Get ready tennis world, this kid is coming. Says Wilander of Joao Fonseca, ” this kid will be top 5 in two years”. By the looks of things in Phoenix, it’s pretty hard to dispute that call. He’s a rock star already…at 18!
Also, are doubles specialists on the ropes? And is Mirra Andreeva on her way to #1?
Joined by Gentleman Tim Henman for a bit of a knock-around, we really realize that the dude truly is a gent! Witty and sharp as hell, too!
Also, Mats on Mirra and Jonny on the top 10 American men of all time. A couple of curious choices to be sure!
Hey Mats, it’s not just tennis players that are going over to pickleball, it’s like…the greatest players of all time, INCLUDING YOU! Dude, what is up with all this?
Also, the US Open is making some pretty bold changes to the mixed doubles event, and we happen to think it’ll be pretty good for the fans!
It’s likely to be the story of the year in 2025, and we’re only in January. Seeing Madison Keys get that slam is as good as it gets for tennis fans everywhere! Good onya, Maddie!!
Also, winner winner, Jannik Sinner! That’s 3 straight hard-court majors, for those scoring at home. Is he on the verge of wrestling the Hugo Boss endorsement away from Berrettini? Our panel of Berrettini experts say “uhhhh, no not yet!”
33 American players in the main singles draws at the Aussie? Those numbers bode well for 2025, but there are definitely plenty of European problems to reckon with…as usual.
Also…does time in the booth possibly give us a “kinder, gentler” version of Nick Kygrios? We’re about to find out!
Joined by Jimmy Arias, the ’24 season finale is focused on disappointments, pleasant surprises, and lessons learned from what we saw this past year. The storylines were a-plenty!
Also, “hey Jimmy, what are the Americans to do in ’25, to make major singles titles a little more likely?”
It’s an All-Star team at the International Tennis Hall of Fame, and CEO Dan Faber joins us to talk about some incredibly exciting plans for 2025 and beyond!
