With two weeks to recap, Miranda and Katie really focus on the most important aspects of the year’s first Masters 1000. Like the fact that Cam Norrie called Felix his “daddy”. Of course, we talk about Daniil Medvedev’s “court” case against Indian Wells and their slow "hard" courts. Miranda reveals her Indian Wells teddy bear’s name and Katie tells her truth about a certain retired player smelling absolutely fantastic. We also play “doubles advocate” and discuss Reilly Opelka’s comments about ridding the world of doubles. As far as the tennis, we talk about Janlitos (the rivalry between Carlitos Alcaraz and Jannik Sinner), the drama between Holger Rune and old man Stan Wawrinka, the horrific grunt show of Felix Auger-Alissame and Carlos Alcaraz, and the short, yet painful final.
