Description

On this week's episode, host Jon Wertheim talks with former doubles World No. 1 and Bahamas native Mark Knowles. After Hurricane Dorian tore through and devastated the lives of many residents, including some of his family members, Knowles joins the podcast to share his tennis backstory and his life growing up in the Bahamas; how exhibitions can actually be beneficial for players, even though they add another event to the already-packed tennis calendar; and details on the upcoming Baha Mar Cup, an exhibition event slated for Nov. 7-10 featuring a silent auction, to help provide relief to hurricane victims and support overall recovery efforts.
