The Retirement Plan
from The Tennis Tragic Hosted by David Kalina, Matte Rochford, and Alex Dawson
The Tennis Tragic #077 / The Retirement Plan / What will we do when it's all over? When our body and spirit can no longer hold up to the rigors of life on tour? This week, we learned that Gael Monfils will be working in wealth management; Stefanos Tsitsipas, meanwhile, will be starting the Society for the Preservation of the One-Handed Backhand. Call him if you have a child with a one-hander. He can help. Meanwhile, Matte and David welcome former Upset Game World Number One Ian Macnider behind the curtain and onto the pod! We discuss Ian's observations about the US Open thus far, and try to pry for secrets of the Upset Game - only to be rewarded with one sports cliche after another. Alas. We touch briefly on the fashion on display at the Open, from Alcaraz's nipple exposure to Naomi's Allen Iverson inspired walk-on outfit; discuss Alcaraz's dirge through five-setters in the latter hours, and imagine a tennis match that goes on literally forever.* Visit the Tragic Archive at tennistragic.com * Play the Upset Game at upsetgame.com * Follow us on Instagram @tennistragicpod
