## Resource

Hanlon Walsh joins the podcast to discuss the top storylines heading into a Wimbledon, with uncertainty reigning supreme among both tours. Walsh looks at the American men led by Ben Shelton and Taylor Fritz, and examines whether Tommy Paul and Frances Tiafoe can continue to thrive on the grass. The writer for Tennis Tribe discusses whether Aryna Sabalenka is poised for a bounce back at The All England Club, explains why he Jessica Pegula is ready to for a deep major run, and weighs in on Serena Williams' much-anticipated return alongside her sister Venus. Walsh also reflects on how he became a diehard tennis fan, and how that journey led him to becoming a very credible member of the tennis media. The journalist dives into the place doubles has in the pro game, and what really makes the game exciting and entertaining. And Walsh looks at Katerina Siniakova's brilliance, as she climbs up the all-time doubles ranks. Hosted by Mitch Michals. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
