This week on the Fantastic Tennis Podcast, we're joined by recent ATX Open Champ and world #49,Peyton Stearns — one of the most exciting rising stars on the WTA Tour. We talk about her incredible title run in Austin, what it meant to win in the same city where she achieved NCAA tennis glory at the University of Texas, her life on tour, fitness, and the mindset it takes to compete at the highest level, and we even talk a little fishing. During this hour, you'll get a chance to get to know Peyton as she shares some fun behind-the-scenes stories, reflections on her journey from college tennis to the pros, and what’s driving this 24 year-old as her career keeps climbing. It's clay court season, and we have a player whose best results have come on the dirt. Please join us in getting to know, the fantastic, Peyton Stearns.

Episode 10 has us chatting with the WTA world #10 in doubles, Canada's Gaby Dabrowski, as she self-isolates during a 14 day quarantine in Melbourne prior to the start of the 2021 Australian Open. In this fun in-depth interview, we spend time learning about the start of her career, her desire to reignite her singles career, her time on the WTA player council and even some insight as to which character from "Schitt's Creek" is her absolute favorite. Join the conversation as Gaby describes the Melbourne lockdown process and even receives a mid-conversation Covid-19 test. We even surprise Gaby with a career victory over former world #1 Naomi Osaka (you'll have to hear it to believe it). Join us with getting to know this amazing 2-time grand slam doubles champion as she's joined by her friend and fan, former ATP world #818, Jeremy Sonkin. You won't want to miss this one, so grab your popcornowski and get ready for the fantastic, Gaby Dabrowski.

It's not every day I get to have a 1 hour conversation with the 11th best tennis player in the world, and if you factor in that she rarely does interviews, it makes today's episode even more special. We welcome the ferocious and fiery, WTA #11, Ekaterina Alexandrova to the Fantastic Tennis Podcast for our 83rd player spotlight. We're just back from the Miami Open, and even though Ekaterina didn't come home with the title, you're in for an amazing get-to-know-you chat with a player that was able to achieve a career milestone by closing out her 2025 season with her 5th career WTA title, and a historic finish inside the world's top 10. In this hour, we chat about her big wins over world #1's like Iga & Aryna, but also we dig deeper and cover topics like, managing emotions on court, online hate, a win that changed her career trajectory and even her favorite curse word. Join our host, Jon Guerrica for a memorable convo with the fantastic, Ekaterina Alexandrova.
