Summary

Send us a text In this week’s episode, Andy Roddick and Jon Wertheim discuss Novak Djokovic's trip to Argentina to play Juan Martín del Potro in a special retirement/exhibition match. They also dive into Carlos Alcaraz’s two exhibition matches in the U.S.—one in Charlotte, North Carolina, and the other at Madison Square Garden in New York. Andy shares his experience of watching Alcaraz in an exhibition format and makes the case for off-season exhibition matches despite the criticism in the era of fighting against more tour-sanctioned matches. In our recent Fan Q&A episode (linked below), our friend Basil Rudawsky shared a story about his old Wilson Sledgehammer, and Andy’s suggestion was to bury the racket. Today, Andy reacts to Basil following through on that advice while he waits to receive his new Wilson Shift racket. What’s the old racket you just can’t bring yourself to part with?Fan Q&A Episode: https://youtu.be/B0qKM2hFgDo Support the show Keep up with us on socials!Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/servedpodcast/X: https://twitter.com/Served_PodcastTikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@served_podcast?_t=8jZtCnzdAnX&_r=1Watch the Episodes on YouTube https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC0k_--YLuTNuDvq1Dw4zHmw Learn more about your ad choices.

Hey, all, straight up the top, want to correct a couple of things from last week. When I was talking

0:04.4

about the Onyx Center case, I kept referencing the February 11th date. That's the earliest it could possibly

0:08.9

be based on the dates that they had set out. I did not explain that well. So no date set as of now,

0:15.4

but we know it's not before then, which then dictated the conversation we had afterwards. So

0:19.8

the premise of everything after that

0:21.4

was, I think, correct. But I should have specified it's not a concrete date yet. It's just a not

0:26.4

before that date as it currently exists. Also, something Max Eisenbud corrected me on. The

0:32.1

eagist suspension and why she got credit for it was because the investigation was going on in her

0:37.4

case still. So she got credit for

0:39.1

that, whereas Sinners has already been investigated. So he won't get credit for like post-Australia

0:44.3

if he doesn't play. I had that completely wrong. Let's get to the show.
