Postcards From Wimbledon: Pleading The Fifth

from The Body Serve · host The Body Serve Tennis Podcast

Wimbledon is (mercifully) over, and we've got two players making their returns to the winner's circle after rather tumultuous 2017 campaigns. Novak Djokovic beat Rafael Nadal in a much-talked-about semifinal before taking out Kevin Anderson in the final. Meanwhile, Angelique Kerber became the second ever player (Venus) to beat Serena Williams twice in a Grand Slam final. We then parse through the major stories of week two at the All England Club, including Dominika Cibulkova's appearance in this episode's #SeeWhatHadHappenedWas.   01:52 Kerber reasserts her class with third Grand Slam title 06:46 Serena has a ways to go yet, but what a ride! 14:26 Nadalovic, Rafole, Djokodal? Whichever you prefer, it was a hell of a match 32:17 AELTC relying on tradition, honour and empire to explain away bad organization 38:23 Women's final (non)scheduling: the issue is about R-E-S-P-E-C-T 45:06 Dedicated to Jana: doubles rundown 48:07 #SeeWhatHadHappenedWas: Cibulkova gives ALL the bad looks 54:08 Rankings Watch: who's up and who's down after Wimbledon? 56:53 Chrissie Evert has had IT: she will name and shame 61:44 What will it take for the WTA to acknowledge its rich gay history and present? 64:44 #SaveHopmanCup
