Podcasts offer a hands-free, courtside companion full of analysis, banter, and behind-the-scenes insights. Whether you’re looking for forehand tips from the experts, hoping to get some analysis on the current Grand Slam, or interested in hearing about the drama on tour, podcasts offer you an inside look of the game unlike anywhere else. Listen to former and current tennis professionals, analysts, and journalists on a platform that’s completely transforming how we learn about the game.

Check out 10 of the best tennis podcasts to tune into during your upcoming tennis travels this season.

1. Nothing Major

Hosted by Sam Querrey, John Isner, Steve Johnson, and Jack Sock, Nothing Major is what happens when four former American tennis pros start podcasting without a filter. Expect hilarious locker-room stories, off-court life reflections, hot takes on current events, and the kind of casual, insider banter that only comes from guys who’ve lived the tour life. It’s more laughs than stats, making it a fun, laid-back listen between matches or over breakfast at the resort café. The episodes aren’t too lengthy, and they’re ideal for the quick road trip or for an easy download before boarding.

Listener Tip: During the Slams, “Nothing Major” turns into “Something Major,” where the hosts release additional episodes every other day to capture what’s been happening on-site. Dive in from the beginning, or start listening to the most recent clips – you won’t want to miss another episode.
