Hi, this is Billie Jean King. This is Mary and Bartorri.

I'm Matt's Vellander. This is Mary Carillo. This is Pam Shriver.

I'm San Roenka. I'm Lighten Hutt. This is Yannick Noah and you're listening to the tennis podcast.

Well, last time we spoke on this podcast, we had loads and loads of stories that we were looking

for to none of which seemed to be relevant to any more Catherine, including the one that I was

hyping up and ended after about three hours. I know me a saga. In fact, I called the podcast

The Asaka Olympics and then she lost in straight sets about four hours later. It's been a funny

old Olympics hasn't it? I mean, there's still lots of interesting people left and huge moments

in their careers could be kind of career-defining moments for about six people. But none of the

storylines that I think I would have anticipated are happening apart from Novak Chokovich.

Yeah, I mean, full disclosure, I've found this Olympic tennis tournament a bit of a letdown

so far and very invested in the Novak Chokovich story because it has significant

beyond man-wins Olympic gold, which look, I'm everybody knows what an Olympic fan I am. I'm very

invested in men and women winning Olympic gold everywhere, but I'm you know, I'm searching for

reasons to care more than just your standards, reasons context, things that elevate it into increased

significance and beyond Chokovich in the draw that we've got left, I'm struggling a little bit and

that's not to say that there aren't lovely little stories and I'm not pleased on a personal level

for lots of different players and teams. I really am. I can see the joy, what it means to them. I am

so into that in the way that I'm into that generally in the Olympics, but I really wanted some of

those storylines that we spoke about a few days ago. I really did some of them, I mean, I obviously

got far too invested at far too earlier stage and so many of them, but I was so into Mugurutha

and Suarez Navarro and Murray and Sol's Bre and sit to pass and sacri even though they're rubbish.
