Bradley Klahn returns to the show to discuss the finale of his playing career, as he hung up his racket after playing the Stanford Challenger last August. Klahn recaps how he came to that decision, finding structure again as a commentator and financial professional, and shares some of the memories from his career that make him smile. The current TC commentator also dives into a ton of current topics in the tennis world, such as Alexander Bublik's improbable title, Holger Rune ending his relationship with coach Boris Becker, and the boom of college tennis players at the professional level.
And then distinguished coach Eric Riley joins the podcast for the first time, discussing his career working some of the game's great since the early 90s. Riley explains how he fell in love with the sport after watching Arthur Ashe play, finding his footing as a coach, and how he developed successful partnerships with players such as Pam Shriver & Lisa Raymond as he coached them. He also explains why Jessica Pegula's next coaching hire is very crucial, and what advice he would give Ben Shelton & Coco Gauff as they ascend to the top of the game. Hosted by Mitch Michals.
