#132: Rogers Cup Wrap, Sascha Bajin Chat

Here in Cincinnati, we had the chance to sit down with Sascha Bajin, Naomi Osaka's coach and the former long-time hitting partner of Serena Williams. Sascha talks about his playful relationship with Naomi, his approach to coaching, and his recent social media tribulations.

#134: Kiki-ing Down the Door in Cincy

The bad news: our time in Cincinnati has come to an end.

After recapping the finals, we rehash some of the notable matches we saw over the past week and regale you with some stories/observations from around the grounds.

I have been following their podcast since last year and I must say that everyone is having a great time following their advices. If you really want to know something about the world of tennis, you must exert an effort to do it. It is not just about knowing the players itself, but we need to acknowledge that they also have their own stories to tell, which could be more exciting and educational sometimes. I hope that more and more people will be interested to follow you here!

Tennis can be played for life because it is a low-impact and non-contact sport. It is a global sport. Tennis is played throughout the world, in every country and is now one of the most widely played sports in the world. It is also among the most lucrative.

However, we must recognise that kids have their own stories to tell, which may be more fascinating and enlightening at times. I hope that as time goes on, more and more people will be interested in following you here!
