Tennis
In this episode of THE BIG T, Brad Gilbert welcomes Nick Monroe to the podcast as they slide onto the red clay of Monte Carlo and recap the movers and shakers from Houston, Charleston and Marrakech.
From Tommy Paul's fighting spirit and Jess Pegula's back to back dominance to a Rocky Balboa-esque feel-good story, this episode covers it all.
Gilbert and Monroe examine Iga Swiatek's mission in Mallorca with new coach Francisco Roig under the watchful eye of the King Of Clay himself, Rafa Nadal.
Speaking of 'Rafas,' Rafa Jodar is a topic of interest this week as BG and Nick look into the Spanish phenom's game and his first ATP Tour title.
Jodar's opponent in the Marrakech final was the Argentine Marco Trungelliti who against all odds became the oldest first time ATP Tour finalist since 1969 and became the oldest in 51 years to make his Top 100 debut.
Known for blowing the whistle on match-fixing in 2015 this breakthrough is seen as a major career vindication for the Argentine and Monroe goes deep into this redemption and resilience story.
Special guest Craig O'Shannessy joins the BIG T as well to explore tennis analytics and how his data driven info has recently helped Stefanos Tsitsipas and Matteo Berrettini overcome roygh patches in their game.
Plus, Geoff Chizever brings back the BANK OR SHANK segment and your fanmail will reveal how players choose their doubles partners.
