The Wimbledon Draw Reaction: Serena, Draper vs Fritz, and a Grass Court in Central Park

The Wimbledon draw is out and it's a lot, in the best way. We react to Serena Williams' return, the round one shock of Jack Draper vs Taylor Fritz, and the storylines pulling casual fans back to tennis at exactly the right time.Then we get practical. We break down the Queue (a £33 ground pass and why we'd treat the wait like brunch), the ever-shifting way to watch Wimbledon in the US, and the real Wimbledon grass court that just landed in Central Park. Plus Ethan Quinn's glow-up from Clay Dog to Grasshopper, and Tatiana Maria's case as the Queen of Grass.Whether you're new to tennis or you've been here for years, consider this your friendly walk through the door.Links:Buy the last hat here - https://www.groundpasspodcast.com/shop/p/ground-pass-tennis-hatTournament guide link - https://www.groundpasspodcast.com/wimbledon-guideChapters:00:00 Welcome to Wimbledon: The Excitement Begins00:55 Heatwave and Its Impact on Players02:55 Merchandise and Community Engagement04:07 Voice Notes and our Wimbledon Tournament guide hub08:50 Serena Williams takes over Wimbledon15:14 Jack Draper v Taylor Fritz is a crazy 1st round18:17 First Round Matches to Watch24:27 Our Wimbledon Bracket (Served)26:06 Who to Watch at Wimbledon32:07 How to watch Wimbledon on ESPN38:31 Player's 15 min press boycott41:42 Results from this Week in Tennis43:32 Wimbledon Comes to New York48:38 Wimbledon Excitement and Upcoming Events50:52 How to Support Ground Pass💬 Don’t forget to give us a leave is a 5 ⭐️ rating and drop us a comment Want to Support Ground Pass - https://www.groundpasspodcast.com/supportOur New Merch is LIVE!!!
