Enter the greenroom of tennis legends, coaches and insiders as Brad Gilbert, Andrea Petkovic, Mark Petchey and Nick Monroe gather weekly to guide fans through the biggest storylines, sharpest debates and competitive chaos shaping the global tennis landscape.

Andrea Petkovic, former World No. 9 and German No. 1 with seven career titles, has emerged as one of the sport’s most thoughtful voices since retiring in 2022—known for her nuanced analysis and storytelling as a broadcaster and host.



Mark Petchey, a decade-long ATP professional, is revered for his tennis intellect and coaching acumen, having worked closely with Andy Murray and Emma Raducanu.
