So. Much. Tennis. If this isn’t commitment, we don’t know what is because we recap five tournaments in this episode AND preview four more. Before starting off with Tennis Talk, we have baby-talk because not one, but THREE pro tennis players becoming parents whether it be for the first or fourth time. On the WTA side this past week we had the 2021 success story, Garbine Muguruza, with a comeback season title in Dubai, as well as Sara Sorribes Tormo with a maiden title in Guadalajara. Again we discuss Doha’s champion *sigh* Nikoloz Basilashvili without failing to mention his DV case and how it has been ignored by the mainstream tennis media this past year, especially some questionable coverage of his title run this week. And with that conversation comes the discussion of Doha’s real champion, Roberto Bautista Agut, who bested Thiem AND Rublev to make the final. Then we have HOTYR-picked Marseille winner Daniil Medvedev who defeated a personal favorite of ours, man-bunned PHH in the finals. Finally, we discuss Cristian Garin’s under-the-radar success in Chile and preview top seeds, Tiebreakers, and Champion Picks for this week’s upcoming tourneys including Dubai (ATP), St. Petersburg, Monterrey, and Acapulco. We have more recap action coming up later this week, so until next time, hasta la vista, baby.
