The Tennis Tragic #059 / L'ouef-Fifteen (A Beginner's Guide) / In this episode, David and Matte welcome all newcomers into the wonderful world of tennis, because tennis is cool, and everyone should l'ouef it passionately, as we do.

We roll out a comprehensive "Beginner's Guide" to the Australian Open. If you don't know where you are, or what you are doing ... go no further! We clearly and comprehensively break down tennis etiquette, the scoring system, and provide a framework for maximum enjoyment during your first live Grand Slam experience. We also discuss bits and bobs of the AO25 draw through the lens of our Upset Game players' picks.

This episode is dedicated to our most engaged listener to date (next to Holger Rune's mother), Ian Macnider. Thanks for listening, and for playing the Upset Game, Ian! Like an unseeded doubles partnership languishing in obscurity, we are both delighted and mystified at the thought that anybody is aware of our existence.
