Hi, I'm Janko Tip Sauravich and you're listening to the tennis broadcasts.

After a weekend of the highest sporting drama, but in golf, not tennis.

We ask whether it's time that the day this cup follows the lead of the rider cup.

We talk about the big prize money increases just announced at the Australian Open.

In our big interview, we speak to the Times tennis correspondent Neil Harmon.

Right here on the tennis podcast.

Well, hello and welcome to episode 14 of the tennis podcast.

In it, we're going to talk about the week that's just gone.

We're going to have a debate about the Davis Cup.

We'll talk over the prize money increases that have just been announced

by the Australian Open in their attempts to avoid a player boycott

that we talked about a few podcasts ago here during the US Open.

All that was going off after the Sunday Times revealed that the tennis players

on the men's side weren't happy with the amount of compensation they were getting.

You may remember we spoke to Craig Tyley, the tournament director of the Australian Open,

who said he was 100% confident that all the players would show up in January and Melbourne.

So, do listen back to that one if you want to hear what he had to say.

But yeah, it's a fascinating story.

It's been expanded upon today with the Australian Open

in announcing their prize money levels and we'll go over that as well.

We'll also speak to Neil Harmon, the tennis correspondent of the Times newspaper

and hear all about his career.
