    Jon Wertheim

    If you've seen tennis on Television,  or if you've watched or read about sports in the USA, then I think it's also likely you've either seen or heard of Jon Wertheim.  There are journalists and there are super journalists - and Jon is definitely the latter. He's written multiple books, appeared on countless radio and television stations, hosts a podcast, writes a blog - slash - mailbag...and covers a whole host of sports - but tennis is arguably what's he most known for. Jon is currently an analyst for the Tennis Channel and i'm delighted to say that Jon is on this edition of Sporting Success. Hear what he thinks of post-pandemic tennis and whether a broadcaster and or journalist can ever be friends with the stars of the show!
