If you’re sick of polite commentary and PR-approved answers, this is the show that says what every tennis tragic is actually thinking. Each week we unpack the biggest stories from around the tour: five-set epics, first-round choke jobs, coaching scandals, umpire meltdowns and everything in between. From Melbourne to Madrid, Roland Garros to the US Open, we follow the circus, argue over the hot takes and celebrate the weird, wonderful world of modern tennis. In every episode you’ll get: Honest, unfiltered reactions to the latest ATP & \"some\" WTA results Grand Slam storylines, dark-horse picks and wildly biased predictions Deep dives on players, rivalries and the moments that broke the internet Mailbag questions, overreactions and the occasional stat that may or may not be accurate Cold beers, bad jokes and friendship-ending debates about who could beat who in their prime. Rated R for racquet abuse, questionable stats and insensitive jokes, Talkn Tennis is not sanctioned by the ATP or WTA – and definitely not approved by you…","last_synced_at":"2026-08-02T08:17:10.113273+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/talkn-tennis-7574519"},"episode":{"title":"Washington 500 Preview - Fritz, Shelton headline Mubadala, De Minaur vs Tsitipsas Round 1 showdown","slug":"washington-500-preview-fritz-shelton-headline-mubadala-de-minaur-vs-tsitipsas-round-1-showdown","published_at":"2026-07-27T09:00:00+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/talkn-tennis-7574519/washington-500-preview-fritz-shelton-headline-mubadala-de-minaur-vs-tsitipsas-round-1-showdown","show_page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/talkn-tennis-7574519","url":"https://talkn-tennis.captivate.fm/episode/washington-500-showdown-mubadala-dc-open-preview","audio_url":"https://episodes.captivate.fm/episode/30613077-085c-4f13-8d70-4fcaf44e7525.mp3","summary":"The North American hard-court swing is underway, and Washington has delivered a blockbuster opening week. We preview both the ATP and WTA 500 draws, headlined by defending champions Alex de Minaur and Leylah Fernandez. De Minaur faces a dangerous early test against Stefanos Tsitsipas, while Jack Draper, Arthur Fils and rising star Rafael Jodar feature in some of the tournament’s most intriguing matchups. On the women’s side, Jessica Pegula enters as the favourite, but Naomi Osaka, Fernandez and wildcard Venus Williams will all be looking to make an early statement before the US Open. We also discuss Australian teenager Cruz Hewitt’s unusual journey into his first ATP main draw and ask which players most need a big week in Washington.","meta_description":"The North American hard-court swing is underway, and Washington has delivered a blockbuster opening week.
