Andy Roddick, Producer Mike, and Jon Wertheim unpack Belinda Bencic’s incredible comeback in just a year, Ann Li’s under-the-radar success, and Joao Fonseca’s breakout season. Then the crew dives deep into the darker side of the sport: gambling, match-fixing, and player harassment. They break down the recent NBA betting scandal, the Nikolay Davydenko case, and how tennis’ new betting economy affects athletes directly.
