Episode 493
Monday, 7 April, 2025
Clay season is upon us! Rejoice in the red (and green) dirt with Joel and Kim as they check in on the first week of action as part of the European / American Clay swing in the build up to the French Open at Roland Garros.It was an eventful seven days on the ATP and WTA Tours as Jessica Pegula clinched her first ever clay court title out in Charleston to put the disappointment of a final loss in Miami to Sabalenka behind her, whilst fellow American Jenson Brooksby fought his way to his maiden tour title in Houston as a qualifier wildcard saving multiple match points along the way! Italians Flavio Cobolli and Luciano Darderi also reversed their fortunes and won ATP 250 titles, whilst Camila Osorio defended her Bogota title on home turf at an event Joel questions whether should even exist in the first place.The duo also discuss the use of electronic line calling with Hawkeye on clay courts, upcoming development changes to Henman Hill for the 2027 Championships at Wimbledon, and recent calls for increased Grand Slam prize money from the ATP/WTA Top 20 players. Joel also teases Kim’s knowledge again on singular Masters winners, and they reflect on Jannik Sinner’s recent comments with Sky Italia about his ongoing ban from the Tour.Roland-Garros Hospitality with Sports, Travel and Hospitality GroupTo guarantee the best seats in the house with ticket-inclusive official hospitality, visit https://bit.ly/4j6RYBzSOCIALSFollow us on Twitter, Instagram, TikTok and YouTube, plus email the show tennisweeklypod@gmail.com.MERCHPurchase Tennis Weekly Merch through our Etsy store including limited edition designs by Krippa Design where all proceeds go towards the podcast so we can keep doing what we do!REVIEWS***Please take a moment to rate and review the show on Apple Podcasts, Spotify or wherever you get your pods.
