2 things in women’s tennis that feel cursed this decade and never happen for some reason, even though we have come close a few times
1.) A matchup between Coco Gauff & Elena Rybakina (still waiting since 2022 Toronto)
2.) A Grand Slam Final between Iga Swiatek & Aryna Sabalenka

A full-circle moment at the Aus Open: catching up with Jennifer Capriati, alongside @MattyAT, for The Sit-Down.
Early in my tennis writing career, I reported on Capriati’s AO 2001 & 2002 triumphs. Loved looking back with such an incredible champion.
