Petko joins Rennae on the pod to recap an eventful Sunshine Double, where Aryna Sabalenka and the women are more than making up for the existential dilemma facing men's tennis as the stars continue to fade and the new faces falter. Plus: A daring new t-shirt design inspired by the legend herself, Serena.

Who saw Jack Draper and Mirra Andreeva coming as Indian Wells champs? Not us—but look out, Rennae is calling it now: Wimbledon 2025 champs. We break down the intriguing matches in California and look forward to the second half of the Sunshine Double: Miami. Rennae is on the scene and reports back from who's looking good and who needs a win.

Rennae and Caitlin are together at the BNP Paribas Open, where we spent International Women's Day with Meghan Robson, the Head of US Credit Strategy for BNP Paribas and a lifelong athlete. Meghan joined us to talk about how sport can be credited with helping women in all walks of life, including business, and how her journey as a youth hockey player left her with a mean slapshot and a good head for assessing risk.
Rennae talks to the woman behind everyone's favorite Grand Slam success story about learning to love the process in tennis, her decades-long journey on the tour and how a little therapy and playing brave pays off.

We give deserved standing ovations to the players who've gotten their inner games of tennis together—looking at you Mirra Andreeva, Andrey Rublev and of course, Madison Keys! Also a slightly inappropriate discussion of the hottest tennis match ever, a brief detour through South America and we'll see you in Indian Wells!

Cooler heads have prevailed—thanks largely to the unrelentingly detail-oriented guest host Andrea Petkovic—and we painstakingly dissect the two big controversies currently embroiling the pro tours: Jannik Sinner’s doping ban and Elana Rybakina’s coaching imbroglio.
