The Man who would be King? Has someone finally dethroned the Big 3 for good?
Also, our sport loses a legend, as we pay tribute to a true tennis industry giant, the late great Billy Freer.
It’s a grass-court spectacular this week on KSR. Mats and AZ debate what would be the best possible Wimby final the history books could put together? Mats has his opinion, but it’s hard to argue with AZ on this one! Even Jonny agrees.
Also, “hey Mats, why could you win the Australian on grass (twice), but never make a final at the big W? French hangover, or what?
The Jokers were wild this past weekend. An amazing 24 hours for the two Serbian sensations. One is the now clear cut best ever, the other is the best right now!
And how about Austin Krajicek, single-handedly carrying US men’s tennis, with a French Doubles Championship. And now…like the 2 Jokers…he’s #1 in the world!
Former French Champs galore, as The Jensens celebrate 30 years since their title, and Mats celebrates in rather dubious fashion.
Also, what’s your dream French final, now that Rafa has had to break our hearts? And, we pay tribute to Davo, as the Golden Age Aussies lose one of their brothers.
Who are YOUR favorite all-time dirt-ballers? We’ve got our list, and in fact one of our guys is on it! If you guessed AZ, you’re close, but you’ve obviously never seen him hit a forehand.
Also, we pay tribute to one of LA’s finest. Tony Graham packed a lot of life into 66 years. He will be remembered fondly!
Holger Rune is definitely a conversation starter, to say the very least! Mats has some provocative thoughts, but ultimately thinks the sky is the limit for the dynamic Dane.
Former Notre Dame star, Andy Zurcher fills us in on a story of incredible inspiration and adversity with a college teammate who faces unimaginable challenges.
Mats and AZ do a red carpet exclusive with REO’s Kevin Cronin. The story of how this happened is a wild one! If you didn’t already love this guy, you will now!
And you definitely want to listen to the whole thing, because the end of the show is EPIC!!
The desert swing in paradise did not disappoint. There’s no escape from Alcaraz, and Rybakina is here to stay.
Meanwhile over in Phoenix, youth was served, as Nuno Borges nips Sascha Schevchenko in a field that included Berrettini, Monfils, and Schwartzman. And then there’s Rajeev Ram. Oh yes, we definitely like him!!
With a set of wheels that won’t quit, Alex de Minaur is doing the Aussies proud. Can his “grind you into sawdust” style put him in major contention?
Tennis in paradise may not have The Djoker or Rafa, but Mats Wilander thinks the Americans have plenty to offer the Indian Wells crowds, who have high expectations, and rightfully so.
Big John Isner just LOVES playing 3rd set TB’s in Dallas Open Finals, doesn’t he? Coach Philip Farmer lets us know what the monster-serving American hopes to do at age 37.
Also, we examine what players are on the brink of breaking through, as ’23 moves toward tennis in paradise.
