They are getting ready to hit the courts at the All England Club, and KP is going to help me break down what to expect! We start with his own tennis career, where he talks about how he got started and playing collegiately. We also talk about the important role of Black players in the sport and reminisce about past Wimbledon greats!
Then, it’s time to figure out who is going to win it all. We start off with the women’s draw. Coco Gauff is coming off her French Open win, but the woman she defeated to win it, Aryna Sabalenka, is the #1 seed. Plus, there’s a lot of talent and not a lot of separation across the Top-8 seeds. Who steps forward to take the crown?
On the men’s side, it’s Carlos Alcaraz’s world, and we’re just living in it. The two-time defending Wimbledon champ looks like GOAT material already. Who is most likely to challenge him? Can the legendary Novak Djokovic summon up one last run? And which Americans can make some noise?
KP also gives us some expert knowledge on the role mental toughness and playing surfaces play in the sport. Also, do you pay attention to the Doubles’ side? He explains why you should. So tap in for a dope conversation!
