Épisode 160

dimanche 3 mars 2024 • Durée 15:39

This episode includes two post-match interviews from the ATX Open with top seeds, Nadiia Kichenok and Oksana Kalashnikova. I chatted with them after their round one and quarterfinal wins in Austin. Nadiia and Oksana are both inside the top 55 on the WTA doubles tour.

Why they used more I-formation in their first match, but less in the quarterfinals.
How they adjusted to different match conditions - from cold & windy one day to sunny and hot a few days later.
Details about a crucial call by Nadiia for a down-the-line return from Oksana during the 10-point tiebreaker.

They also share a bit about life on tour as doubles players and why they are right on the cusp of a significant ranking threshold. Nadiia and Oksana ultimately lost in the semifinals in Austin in another close three-set match.

ATX Open Interview with Maya Joint & Sabina Zeynalova (University of Texas)

Épisode 159

samedi 2 mars 2024 • Durée 09:06

This is the first in a series of post-match interviews with doubles players from the ATX Open, in Austin, Texas. Maya Joint (Australia) and Sabina Zeynalova (Ukraine) won their first-round match 6-7 6-4 10-4 and chatted with me after.

Sabina is a junior at the University of Texas where she plays on the women's tennis team. Maya (17) plans to join her in the fall of '24 as a freshman.

We spoke about how the cold, windy match conditions affected their strategy. They also shared a few things they learned on the court playing for the first time together. You'll get a sense of what it's like for college tennis players preparing for a professional career.

I expect you'll hear these two names more often in the coming years as they continue to improve. After this conversation, they lost their quarterfinal match in Austin to the top seeds 11-9 in the third set.

3 Mental Myths to STOP Believing in Doubles

Épisode 158

mercredi 28 février 2024 • Durée 16:56

As we dive into the mental side of doubles over the next several weeks, I wanted to share 3 mental myths that many doubles players believe. Join the newsletter for more mental lessons.

Once you stop believing these and reframe your mindset, you'll be a better doubles player.

Great players don't get nervous.
Losing a point is bad.
If you miss or get beat down the line, it's your fault you lost the point.

I'll explain how to think about each of these myths differently, so you play better under pressure, don't feel so bad when you miss, and play doubles the right way more often.

The Mental Game Masterclass will launch at the end of March.

Will Blumberg Interview: In-Match Adjustments, Tiebreaker Advice, & Partnership Adjustments

Épisode 156

samedi 17 février 2024 • Durée 18:39

Will Blumberg is the #93 ranked doubles player on the ATP Tour. He was a 10-time All-American at North Carolina and made the finals of the 2024 Dallas Open where this conversation was recorded.

Will and I sat down on his day off in Dallas to discuss his career, the pro doubles tour, and strategy.

You'll learn:

Why Will and his partner, Rinky Hijikata, switched return sides after the 1st set - I almost never see this at the pro level.
How he picks up his energy for 10-point tiebreakers.
What adjustments he makes with different doubles partners - he played with nine partners in 2023.
The difference between the body-forehand vs body-backhand serve.

Will also shares the advice he gives his fiancee and mom to help them in their adult league doubles matches, as well as what he did in practice that day in Dallas. At the end, we discuss the popularity of doubles.

Keep an eye on Will Blumberg throughout this season as I don't expect him to stay outside the top 50 for much longer.
