It’s 2025, so why do we have to tell people to stop stalking women in sports? On the heels of tennis player Emma Raducanu and track star Gabby Thomas sharing their stalking stories, Blake and Caroline discuss why women athletes are at higher risk for harassment, the role social media plays, and how leagues can do better to protect them. 


In this episode of Well Played, we’ll also cover:


  • Blake and Caroline’s strong feelings about the Yankees’ controversial beard-ban 
  • Who Napheesa Collier gave half of her Unrivaled 1v1 prize money to 
  • Whether JJ Watt will come out of retirement for…an English goalkeeper?
  • A preview of the NFL’s sorority rush week, AKA: the Combine
  • Justin Bieber getting feisty on the ice in a celeb hockey game
