The guys can hardly contain their excitement with the kick-off of all things Australian Open. But first, a hotel worker testing positive for COVID-19 forces a break in play at all 400 pre-AO tournaments (jokes -- there were six). Was their a difference in this worker's 'close contact' to players compared to those who tested positive on the airplanes? Why no hard lockdown in this case?
Aldwin and Jason review pre-AO event results, struggling to remember who played which event in the process. Bianca Andreescu's withdrawal (again) is called into question, along with the countless other players who withdrew late into those events.
On the heels of the start to the Australian Open, the guys analyze the draw, who they look forward to seeing, who will make deep runs and their early picks to hold the trophy.
