Episode Details

After losing the Monte-Carlo Masters Final to Sinner, Carlos Alcaraz posted a fun video of his bestie Jannik diving into the club's pool. Cute! Good for engagement! Bad for winning. This week we talk tennis rivalries and question whether Carlos needs to go darker if he wants to beat Sinner. We also dig up clips of Chrissie and Martina talking about how they had to lose the friendship bracelets to truly compete.

Also:

• The Onion's dumb tennis satire piece
• Rybakina's weird used tennis gear/crypto scam online shop
• Nadal Netflix final year documentary incoming (are these actually good television?)
• Alcaraz wrist injury. Oh God 😱
