January 2024.

The first Grand is underway in Melbourne Australia.

Two wins is an excellent start and builds confidence. Here is the review - so far.

Had to work hard in both matches and are clearly parts of the game that needs work.

The listener question is whether the 15th seed watches the match involving the next round opponent.

Until we know who that player will be ....... thank you for listening and as always ....... thank you ball boys, thank you Hawkeye.

The 15th Seed

Melbourne Australia

The 15th seed tennis podcast is the record of the 15th seed's journey in the 2024 tennis season.

This week am at Melbourne Australia, the location of the first “Grand Slam” tournament of the year.

The draw is now out. 128 players. 32 seeds.

What does it look like for the 15th seed ?

Tough first round and same section of the draw as the “hottest” player on tour at present.

The listeners question. “Should there be a “Slam” event this early in the year.

Pleased to have your company.

And as always ........ “Thank you balls boys, thank you Hawkeye” .... “The 15th seed”

Melbourne, Australia.

The fifteenth seed podcast records the insights of life on the tour.

After a disappointing first tournament in Brisbane, the 15th seed travels to Melbourne Australia to prepare for the Australian Open.

The Australian Open being the first of the Grand Slam tournaments (one of four major tennis events of the year).

The practice sessions, preparation and thoughts.

The “coaches panel” experience.

Still waiting for the draw to be announced, so it is about the lead up to the tournament.

As always ........” thank you ball boys, thank you Hawkeye” ........” the 15th Seed”.
