Murphy Jensen opens up about his battle with addiction

from Beyond The Baseline: SI's Tennis Podcast with Jon Wertheim · host SI Tennis | Jon Wertheim

On this week's episode, host Jon Wertheim talks with former ATP doubles champion Murphy Jensen from Paris. Partnered with his brother, Luke, Murphy rose to fame when the duo won the 1993 French Open doubles title. The match—and the win—changed their lives forever. But for Murphy, the fame also came with a lifestyle filled with drugs and alcohol. He discusses how these issues began to affect his tennis career, how he went "missing at Wimbledon," how he finally realized he was struggling with an addiction and needed help in 1999, and more.
