On Monday Match Analysis, Gill Gross reacts to Jakub Mensik's 7-6 7-6 win over Novak Djokovic in the 2025 Miami Open. A first title for the 19-year old in spectacular fashion, and a disappointment for Djokovic on the hunt for his 100th career title. We'll talk storylines, how the tiebreaks played out, why Mensik has shown early tiebreak mastery, break down the battle between the Mensik serve and the Djokovic return, how Mensik turned his forehand weakness into a strength and what we learned about 2025 Djokovic via this Miami run to the final.

Intentionally Disturbing
Join me on this podcast as I navigate the murky waters of human behavior, current events, and personal anecdotes through in-depth interviews with incredible people—all served with a generous helping of sarcasm and satire. After years as a forensic and clinical psychologist, I offer a unique interview style and a low tolerance for bullshit, quickly steering conversations toward depth and darkness. I honor the seriousness while also appreciating wit. I’m your guide through the twisted labyrinth of the human psyche, armed with dark humor and biting wit.
