A Second Conversation with Ben Rothenberg

Ahead of this episode, Scott just about managed to pull himself together and be on his best behaviour ahead of Ben Rothenberg's second visit to Murray Musings HQ. Ben kindly agreed to return to the podcast on the final day of the 2021 Laver Cup and shared his thoughts on the tournament with us, as well as commenting once more on the key issues that he feels currently demand the most attention on the professional tennis tours. Some of what is discussed is of a very serious nature so please do take note of the timestamps below. Thank you and we hope you enjoy.

30 minutes, 30 seconds - discussion on the the two articles Ben has written on Olya Sharypova's claims of abuse at the hands of her ex-partner Alexander Zverev. This is followed by Ben's hopes for an investigation of some kind and leads on to the Laver Cup...

56 minutes, 30 seconds - discussion on the Laver Cup and comments made by Reilly Opelka and other players regarding Alexander Zverev. Our hosts also touch on the Laver Cup social media accounts blocking criticism of Zverev's participation.

1 hour, 20 minutes - we move on to discuss Sloane Stephens and Andy Murray.
