Matt Futterman of The Athletic Talks Tennis Business with Craig Shapiro

Matt Futterman from The New York Times and I sat down and chopped it up right outside of the media centre on the grounds at The Australian Open, and we discussed all of the hot button topics dominating pro tennis- The PTPA antitrust lawsuit and the Tennis Australia settlement, Craig Tiley's imminent move to run the USTA, the college players shining in Australia, the Saudi tournament coming down the pipe, and a whole lot more. Matt has a book coming out in August titled " The Cruelest Game: Chasing Greatness in Professional Tennis" and we discussed the brass tacks of this project. It was an awesome chat.Recorded 1.26 Released 1.27The Craig Shapiro Tennis Podcast is Powered By The Golden Ticket Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
