Today on the Lucky Letcord Podcast we meet up with new World Team Tennis CEO Carlos Silva at Roland Garros to talk about the upcoming WTT season.

Silva tells us about his vision for the future of the league and breaks down how his experience as League President of the Professional Fighters League (PFL), and CEO of World Series of Fighting (WSOF) have prepared him for the challenges of his new gig.

We talk about the league's new deal with the CBS Sports Network and learn where we can find the league on our televisions this season.

Silva discusses key working relationships with WTT co-founder Billie Jean King and Washington Kastles owner Mark Ein and explains how his decision-making is informed by his interaction with them and other like them.

And, of course, we break down the season, talk about the league's expansion from six to eight players and get excited about the big names that are set to compete at WTT venues across America and on television this summer.
