E.028 Daniil Medvedev and Petra Kvitova win Miami! Monte Carlo Masters 1000 Preview!

Point by Point Tennis Podcast

On our third episode of 2023, we are bringing the audio from our YouTube Live! You can catch the video version here - YouTube Live Recording: Miami Results & Monte Carlo Preview
We begin the show discussing the results from the Miami Masters 1000 event, where Petra Kvitova won her 9th Masters 1000 against one of the players of the year in Elena Rybakina, and Daniil Medvedev won his 4th title in his last 5 events with a straight sets win over Jannik Sinner. We also discuss probably the match of the tournament in the semi final between Sinner and Carlos Alcaraz.
We also preview the draw for the Masters 1000 event in Monte Carlo! We go quarter by quarter discussing the most notable match-ups, and we give our predictions from the quarterfinals onwards.
With the end of the hardcourt season of the first quarter of the year, we go into our version of the power rankings for both the ATP and WTA. Who are the players on the rise? Who are players that disappointed? Who are our top 5 players of the year? We go into all of that and more.
At the end of the show, we also do some Monte Carlo related Trivia! Listen to the end to see if you can get more correct answers than our host Jishnu!
This year, we are experimenting with a different format for recording our shows. Moving forward, most episodes will be recorded live or be pre-recorded and uploaded shortly after on YouTube and delivered to our Podcast feed the next day. Keep an eye out for our next YouTube live coming early next week, when we will recap the biggest results from Monte Carlo and preview the ATP Masters 500 event in Barcelona and the WTA 500 event in Stuttgart!
