Description

Welcome to the 2024 Australian Open Wrap-Up, where we're taking a swing at all the happenings Down Unda! Aryna Sabalenka was on a mission, which  fueled her success to the finish line.  Jannik Sinner's comeback to win the final was a masterclass in composure and self-belief, proving that tennis is as much a mental game as it is physical.In a surprising twist, Rohan Bopanna danced into the record books as the oldest number one doubles Grand Slam winner at the ripe age of 43. Who says age slows you down in tennis?However, it wasn't all sunshine and lighthearted banter. Controversies stole the spotlight. The ATP faced criticism (not only by us) for its unclear policies and lack of accountability in handling domestic violence and sexual assault investigations.So, what's the solution? We're calling for external investigations and independent oversight to ensure a fair and just playing field. It's time for players, fans, and organizations to team up for accountability.Stay tuned for more court-side antics and serious discussions as we call for tennis to DO BETTER.Chapters00:00 Introduction03:06 Adjusting to the Australian Open schedule07:30 Discussion / Issues with the Grammys14:47 Transition to Australian Open recap15:31 Women's Singles Semis27:25 Women's Singles final: Aryna Sabalenka vs. Qinwen Zheng36:15 Men's Singles Quarterfinals38:39 Good Prevails in Men's Semifinals42:20 Men's Singles Finals54:52 Doubles action01:04:10 ControversiesInstagram : Out_Wide_PodcastJingle : https://www.nelaruizcomposer.com/Logo: https://www.instagram.com/crayonspaghetti/
