Summary
The French Open in…September?
Catherine, David and Matt are back for a bonus mid-week pod to discuss all the fallout from Roland Garros going rogue in the wake of Coronavirus and re-positioning itself in the calendar for this year.
What are the political implications of such a move? Will this actually bring tennis’ fractious governing bodies together? Could it lead to long-term change? And what’s the likelihood of it going ahead like this?
There’s also news of David’s AMA on Reddit, Matt quotes Star Wars, and Catherine provides important updates on bra wearing, suitcase unpacking, and karaoke.
The Tennis Podcast is produced weekly year-round, and daily during the Grand Slam tournaments. It is crowdfunded by listeners every December.
