TW Meets... Supercoach Patrick Mouratoglou - UTS plans, Rune partnership + Olympics picks!

With the Olympics in full flow, France and Roland Garros is firmly in the spotlight for tennis. And one of the leading names in French tennis is supercoach Patrick Mouratoglou who has mentored the likes of Serena Williams, Grigor Dimitrov and Laura Robson and many others over his career to date. In this episode, Joel took the time to sit down with Coach Mouratoglou for a wide ranging chat on the tennis landscape including his grand ambitions for the Ultimate Tennis Showdown as master creator and his hopes for a women's event in the future. Elsewhere, they talk about his partnership with Holger Rune this season which comes as they have announced they are to split (again) plus we put him to the test with some prediction challenges including who he thinks will win the Gold in Paris and who he thinks will be the next first time Grand Slam winners. They may not be the answers you were expecting! This episode was pre-recorded during Wimbledon.
