Clay Magazine Outs Tennis

Show notes

Tennis Pulse is back — and this time we brought reading material. We’re diving into our favorite articles from Clay Magazine and things get real, fast. First up — Joao Lucas Reis Da Silva came out as gay. We talk about what that moment means for tennis, for representation, and for a sport that has been very quiet about this for a very long time. Then we get into the Asian Rising Stars shaking up the tour — because the future of tennis might not look like what you expected.
And then… the Djokovic Dilemma. Is he really the GOAT? We say yes. Emphatically. Respectfully. Unapologetically. Yes. Plus — we play But Why? where we ask all the burning tennis questions nobody else wants to touch. We put you in the hot seat with Match Point — our spelling game where we find out if you can actually spell these players’ names. Spoiler: it’s harder than it looks.
And we close it out with Ask Charly — because some questions only our expert Charly can answer.

Clay Magazine brought the stories. Tennis Pulse brought the conversation.
