Coaching Carousels, Exhibition Matches, & Tennis Movies

In this episode Tony & Ian talk about the coaching changes that took place over the last week including Holger Rune & Jess Pegula, & we debate the importance of coaching in tennis. We also discuss exhibition matches such as the Netflix Slam in Las Vegas, the 6 Kings Slam in Saudi Arabia, & the Ultimate Tennis Showdown & discuss why we'd like to see more exhibition matches. This brings us back to an important conversation around sports washing with tennis finding itself at an intersection with Saudi Arabia. We reveal our new side quest to rank the best tennis movies between now & when the new movie 'Challengers' comes out. Finally, as we do at the end of each episode, we recap the results from the previous week of tennis & mention the tournaments happening this week.
