Tour Catch-Up: Finals - FAA all the way, Kontaveit’s indoor hot streak and a 46-point tiebreak

In the latest episode of The Passing Shot, the tennis podcast by fans, Joel and Kim catch up on the past week on tour and celebrate Felix Auger-Aliassime winning his first ATP Tour Title on his ninth attempt in Rotterdam. They reflect upon the week in Dallas, which saw John Isner add another record to his CV - that of the longest tiebreak on tour, and Reilly Opelka win the title (with lots of tie breaks thrown in for good measure!). They also touch upon Juan Martin Del Potro’s emotional exit at the Argentina Open, Fernando Verdasco working his magic as a veteran Spaniard on tour, and Casper Ruud potentially starting up his clay court success once more. Joel and Kim also catch up on the WTA Tour, which saw Anett Kontaveit claim her 4th straight indoor title, with a stunningly hard fought victory over Maria Sakkari in the St Petersburg Final. They also chat tennis themed Valentine’s dates, fashion faux pas and faves and throw in a Mysterious Player for good measure too!
