This is a really important step for the Pod. I really believe in it, and I think we can do even better work and be dedicated to having a place where fans can talk about their wild tennis ideas, predictions, criticisms, and just geek about the sport in general.

With the Patreon, we open up an avenue that could allow us to focus a lot more on this project.

Join here: patreon.com/TennisBagelsPodcast

Current benefits:

• Ads Free Episodes, video and audio
• The Bagel Book Club (name wip lmao): a tennis book a month with a video review at the end of each month! Discussion encouraged in the Patreon comments :)

We have a lot of cool ideas to put in place, but we need help to grow the pod to allow us to give more content and benefits!

Your support is HIGHLY appreciated :D

Thank you!

Iga Swiatek doens't present the same aura as she did a couple years ago. She's lost her edge, and not only on rivalries she used to dominate. It feels like every player is now feeling more and more confident when they step on court against her.

For her biggest rivals, this means that the sense of danger is no longer there. Gauff hasn't lost in their last five matches despite losing 11 straight, and Sabalenka probably feels like she can beat her no matter where they play, at every stage.

The new coach, plus a time at the Rafa Nadal Academy, could prove to be a pivotal moment in her career to bring her back to winning ways. Stuttgart will be the first tournament where we will see the early works of this partnership, and if the results will follow ahead of Swiatek's favourite and most successful major, Roland Garros.

It wasn't the best match of their rivalry, but it might as well be one of the most important. Jannik Sinner was yet to win a big title on clay. He lost several really important finals to Alcaraz, including that mystical Roland Garros final in 2025 (last year).

Now he unlocked new potential.

What will happen next? Will Alcaraz play Barcelona and Madrid, maybe skip one or the other? Will Sinner play Madrid?

We are bound to see the full meaning of this victory as the rest of the clay season unfolds - and this victory could be pivotal not only for Roland Garros, but also for the rest of the entire year. Perhaps even their whole careers.
