On today's show we discuss the breakout victory for Jannik Sinner, who dethroned 10 time champion Novak Djokovic in the semi finals and beat Daniil Medvedev from 2 sets down in the final to win is first Australian Open and Grand Slam overall. We discuss what made Sinner evelate to this level and what it means for the rest of the year
We also talk about the women's final, in which Aryna Sabalenka defeated surprise finalist Qinwen Zheng, to defend her Australian Open title. We discuss what made possible for Sabalenka to have such a dominant tournament overall, and if she is now the best player in the world.
We also discuss other Australian Open storylines, including the surprising defeats and performances of Novak Djokovic, Carlos Alcaraz, Iga Swiatek, and Elena Rybakina, and players to watch for the rest of the seasons, including young players Dino Prizmic, Arthur Cazaux, and Amanda Anisimova.
We discuss the return of Rafael Nadal from a 1 year injury layoff in Brisbane, including his overall level and what his injury setback in Brisbane mean for his return.
At the end of the show, we do some Australian Open and Jannik Sinner related Trivia! Listen to the end to see if you can get more correct answers than Carlos and Jishnu!
Keep an eye out for our next episode coming Sunday March 3th, when we will recap the most important storylines across all the events leading to the Sunshine double in Indian Wells and Miami!
