Tuesday, 24 March, 2026
Taylor Townsend joins us live from the Miami Open for one of the most open and honest conversations we’ve had on The Changeover.From balancing life as a mother on tour to the mindset it takes to compete at the highest level, Taylor gives a real behind-the-scenes look at what it actually takes to sustain a career in pro tennis. She shares what surprised her most about Naomi Osaka, breaks down the recent Ostapenko-China drama, and opens up about competing without a coach and how she builds accountability on her own.We also get into the realities of playing through your period, coming off birth control, and how that impacts performance — a side of the sport that rarely gets talked about.Plus: her unique warm-up routine, thoughts on tennis fashion, a hilarious “are Justin & Jody hot?” poll, and a competitive trivia battle vs Jody.This episode is raw, funny, and insightful — Taylor does not hold back.Edited by Chris Grierson (The Sheriff London)
