Episode Notes

In this episode, hosts Mark Petchey and Andrea Petkovic gather in the heart of the Australian Open which has become tennis’ version of Disneyland for fans, players and the entire industry. 

'Petch' and 'Petko' have been calling matches down-under and describe their awe of Novak Djokovic’s current form with unprecedented ball striking from his first round match. Our hosts will not be shocked if the GOAT captures his 25th SLAM and ruins the duopoly of Sinner and Alcaraz.

Also, since imitation is the most sincere form of flattery, Petchey and Petko dissect Carlos Alcaraz’s newest serve technique modeled after the aforementioned Djokovic who made similar changes to his mechanics early in his career as well. 

Plus, Iga Swiatek’s wardrobe malfunction brings back memories for Andrea and Mark who take us behind the scenes of kits that have caused fits over the years with some stories about Andy Murray and Roger Federer being picky and precise. 

Lastly, our special guest onsite is the newest member of the millionaire club as 1-Point Slam winner Jordan Smith joins The BIg T to recap his memorable win and what comes next in his life.
