Open Era Gold: The Remarkable Andre Agassi
In 1997 it was the end for Andre Agassi. A failed drug test coupled with injuries and the disintegration of his marriage saw the American plummet to 141 in the world rankings. And then, Agassi did something remarkable. This week on the Open Era Podcast, we revisit the 1999 French Open final and Agassi’s date with destiny.

Rome: Swiatek Sweep
Rome, it’s been a slice.
On this week’s Open Era, Simon and Devang recap another Iga Swiatek vs. Aryna Sabalenka final, with the Pole coming out on top yet again. The boys discuss the WTA landscape and just how much of a favourite Iga will be in Paris.
On the men’s side, it was a shitshow. Nadal’s early exit, Djokovic and the bottle and a wide open field are among the topics discussed before the guys close with parting shots, and some thoughts on Dominic Thiem and Jannik Sinner.

Open Era Gold: Rome — Clash of the Titans
It took Iga Swiatek 46 minutes to win her first title in Rome. It took Rafael Nadal 162 minutes to win his 10th title in Rome. They’re at different points in their careers, but let there be little doubt, both players are incredible. This week on Open Era, Simon and Devang recount an amazing week for the Polish teen and examine yet another riveting edition of the Nadal-Djokovic rivalry. That, plus Roger Federer’s return in Geneva, Ash Barty’s injury and Andy Murray’s future coming up on this week’s show!

Madrid: The Longest Week
Was that the best WTA Final of the year? Devang and Simon certainly thought it was right up there. The ATP side? Well, that was a different story. We were both worried that someone would withdraw from the final while it was happening. Enjoy us unpacking a very strange week in Madrid plus Parting Shots as always!

Madrid: Hola a Todos
Hola a todos! We are pleased to be back after Devang’s back injury. Unfortunately, it will keep him out of the French Open. He joins Simon this week to chat about the winners and losers of the past few weeks on the European Clay Courts. Plus they get into Garbiñe Muguruza’s retirement and Russel Fuller’s article on the future of tennis.
