In this episode of The Lineup, Dave Prodan is joined by cohost and commentator Mitchell Salazar to break down everything from the Bonsoy Gold Coast Pro Presented by GWM. They discuss Bettylou Sakura Johnson notching her first-ever CT win, Filipe Toledo reminding the world he’s still a title threat, and a wildcard venue proving the doubters wrong. With just one event left before the Mid-Season Cut, Dave and Mitch dive into what Burleigh told us about the rankings race, the veterans under pressure, and the next-gen stars rising fast. Plus, they cover the biggest winners and losers from the Gold Coast, the surprising stat on men’s Quarterfinalists, and the youth movement rewriting the women's draw.
