Jules on the Hustle

This week, Ben Doornbos joins the podcast to discuss all things tennis and his love for the game! Ben has a big role working at the Dow Tennis Classic in Midland, Michigan (one of my favorite tournaments) and sheds light on what it's like to meet or watch players for the first time. Also, am I making a comeback on the tennis tour? Find out in this episode! Follow me on IG and Twitter @juleselbaba. 

Julia speaks with Ukraine's Elina Svitolina prior to her match in Monterrey. She said she would not step foot on a tennis court if there was any Russian or Belarusian representation on the other side of the net. The 27-year-old ranked No. 15 in the world, was the top seed in the WTA 250 in Monterrey, Mexico, and was “shocked” to have drawn Russia’s Anastasia Potapova in the first round of the event. Here we break down her emotions and how she got the WTA to neutralize the flags. Follow me on Instagram and Twitter @juleselbaba .
