Can you believe it has been 10 years (!!) since Serena completed her second Serena slam in 2015?! We can’t. And we’re still not over it.

Join us and fellow Tony, Serena stan and creator of the Tennis Watchers substack (tjc05 on Twitter and Bluesky) as we break down Serena’s 2015 tournament by tournament.

In this special Clay-Rena Part 2, we talk about Serena's clay court season, including:

• Serena's Vogue cover story about her friendship with Caroline Wozniacki
• Her iconic battles (and arguments!) with friend Vika Azarenka
• Her first loss on tour of the year to Petra Kvitova in Madrid
• And of course, her wild ride to her third Roland Garros title, which included five 3-set wins

Don't miss this fun breakdown with tons of random stories from this historic season that saw Serena truly become mother. We even get into her 2013 match with Sloane at the Australian Open. You can hear a short bonus episode about that here.

Need to catch up on Part 1 about Serena's run to the AO title, her return to Indian Wells and 8th title in Miami? Listen on Spotify or Apple.

We traveled across the world and spent a ton of money to come to Roland Garros. And what's the first thing we want to podcast about? A match between Sara Errani and Anna-Lena Friedsam in the second round of qualifying. We don't get it either - but here we are. Listen to hear why this match changed Tony's life, and more importantly, how it made him a Sara Errani stan.

We break down:

• Tony's history with Errani
• How she won him over
• The match that will go down as the best match at RG 2025 (no matter what happens from here)

This week we’re joined by the creators of Fairlight! Hear us talk about Sabine Lisicki, Jack Draper, Wimbledon, and of course, their project Fairlight.
