60 Minutes correspondent and Tennis Channel's esteemed journalist Jon Wertheim returns to the podcast to recap the exciting first week of the Australian Open, and to look ahead at some epic matches in Melbourne. Wertheim discusses his interview with Novak Djokovic last month in Serbia, and explains why the Serbian is still at the peak of his powers down under. He also chats about American Taylor Fritz' breakthrough major win, Jannik Sinner aiming for the top spot, and why Carlos Alcaraz might be flying under the radar at the year's first major.
And on the women's side, Wertheim dives into the carnage at the top of the bracket, headlined by #1 seed Iga Swiatek's shocking upset loss to Linda Noskova. Wertheim foreshadows a potential showdown between Coco Gauff & Aryna Sabalenka, and explains what a second career major would mean for each. It's another fun podcast with one of the premier journalists in sports. Hosted by Mitch Michals.
