    Rome: Swiatek Sweep

    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

    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

    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!

    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.

    Open Era Gold: David Nalbandian — Giant Slayer

    Open Era Gold: David Nalbandian — Giant Slayer

    This week we profile someone that never became world number one or captured a Grand Slam, but accomplished something no other player has . David Nalbandian defied explanation, until you saw what he could do on the court when everything was just ‘right.’ We saw that happen in 2007 at the Madrid Open when he became the first and only person to beat Nadal, Djokovic and Federer at the same tournament.

    Monte Carlo: The Home Grand Slam

    Monte Carlo: The Home Grand Slam

    Stefanos Tsitsipas wins in Monte Carlo again. It’s becoming almost routine for the Greek after he saw off a low ranking Danish player in the final. Devang and Simon examine a controversial week in the tax haven where the debate about line calling continued to dominate the headlines.
