Players ready, play ..............

At Monte Carlo, the first clay court tournament of the 2024 season for the 15th Seed.

First match under the belt. A successful outcome but with a challenging draw ahead with most of the best players in attendance. And why not. A Masters 1000 event in a superb location.

The 15th Seed expands on the assessment of Nick Kyrgios from the last podcast as a result of feedback.

The 15th Seed

Players ready ......... play.

On today's episode, have arrived at Monte Carlo for the start of the clay court season.

Start of the second part of the year.

Whilst not a favourite surface for results, do enjoy Europe and feel fit & ready to perform.

Answer the question of podcast listener Phil A who asks ........ if Nick Kyrgios was to stop his playing career now, where would he rank amongst all time Australian tennis players?.

The 15th seed has expressed a view. Would be interested in your thoughts & comments.

Thanks you ball persons, thank you Hawkeye.

The 15th Seed

28 March 2024

Into the fourth round at Miami and full of expectation against a top ten player.

That was short lived.

The gulf between the top ten and others was evident.

Overall a solid tournament and one that was much needed. But still more work to be done.

The end of the early US hard Court season. Now off to Europe and the clay.
