Tennis Stars Revolt at the French Open

View show details

This week, the party gets a world-class tennis upgrade as Billie Jean King and Ilana Kloss join Julie and Abby for a Coffee with Kinger all about the state of the game. The crew reacts to Serena Williams’ rumored return, Venus still being very much in the mix, and the chaos of a French Open where a new generation is breaking through. Then, they dive into the major player protest at Roland Garros, why top tennis stars are pushing for a bigger share of Grand Slam revenue, and how Billie and Ilana see this fight as part of a much bigger battle for player power, pensions, health care, and a seat at the table. Plus: why college tennis programs are being cut, what tennis needs to do to survive in the new era of college sports, Naomi Osaka’s fashion moment, and Julie introduces the More Than Four Challenge in support of pediatric cancer research.
