Well that was quite a week. We thought that this time of year in the tennis calendar was supposed to be quiet. We weren’t quite ready and prepared for tennis to turn into the epicentre of a geo-political incident, which may have incredibly far-reaching impacts on relations between global superpowers.

All of that in the same week that the world tour finals took place along with us getting to the slow dancing in a burning room stage of Roger Federer's retirement.

To help us tackle all of that plus a whole other whack of other stuff in parting shots is the good folks from the Tennis and Bagels Podcast. They are Vansh Vermani and Owen Lewis.
