Gill Gross joins the podcast to recap the 2026 Australian Open, which featured a fantastic finish to the fortnight in Melbourne. Gross explains how Carlos Alcaraz was able to complete the career-slam at just 22 years old, and how he displayed his tenacity and tactical brilliance down under. The host of "Monday Match Analysis" also reflects on Novak Djokovic's sensational victory over Jannik Sinner in the semifinals, and predicts the Serbian legend's future in 2026 and beyond. And Gross gives his thoughts on Sinner's setback, Alexander Zverev's ups and down, and how the tour will take on the task of competing against Alcaraz. Gross also review's the women's final, which saw Elena Rybakina defeat Aryna Sabalenka to claim her first Australian Open title. The broadcaster dives into what truly makes Rybakina elite, assesses Sabalenka's performance, and looks at the top storylines going into the 2026 season on the WTA. Hosted by Mitch Michals.
