Episode 771: Tennis For The Ages, Mayweather McGregor Money, Olympic Class

Mon 30th Jan 2017

Eoin, Murph, Ken, Sinead O'Carroll, Elaine Buckley, Dave Hannigan.

The rest of the tennis season would want to go some to match the Australian Open for drama, as it gave us Serena Williams winning a record-breaking 23rd Grand Slam title, and Roger Federer rolled back the years to beat Rafa Nadal in 5 sets. Sinead O’Carroll of The Journal, and Elaine Buckley of the Fair Game podcast joined us in studio.

Dave Hannigan joins us from New York to discuss Trump’s latest omnishambles, and there’s Mayweather McGregor money, overly-polite post-match interviews, Skittles, and flying Olympic class.
