We are back with another episode of the podcast to discuss the US Open 2023. If we had any good sense, we should have recorded this episode on the Saturday after the women's final. However, with foolish hope and unwise optimism we waited until after the men's final thinking Meddy could produce some magic. We got Meddy mess instead.
For this episode we invited Howard Bryant, ESPN Sports Journalist and favourite guest on the show. We do not pay him as he has a serious job that pays his bills.
We spent far too much time on the men's final and the state of men's tennis before we got into the ladies and Coco's run to her maiden major win!!! Was this a good US Open? Where is the tour heading? What are we doing about climate change and this outdoor sport?
We hope that you will enjoy this episode and share in the fun.

The end of the singles action at this year's Wimbledon has brought us out of hibernation. We couldn't let it go unrecorded that we were besides ourselves as Carlos Alcaraz took down Novaxx at Centre Court Wimbledon!!! We just had to get on a hot mic and let yall in. Sorry for those who missed the live episode but here it is.
We got into this classic thriller of a match on the men's side and talked a lil bit of the women's final. Eubanks got a lot of love. We really need to get back to the business of making tennis podcasts. We will do better for the rest of the year.
For this episode we invited Howard Bryant, ESPN Sports Journalist and favourite guest on the show, to keep us honest and as we discuss the possible changing of the guards. Is there another Spanish takeover.
We hope that you will enjoy this episode and share in the fun.
PS DO SUPPORT AND ENCOURAGE GREAT, THOUGHTFUL AND ETHICAL JOURNALISM!!!

So we are opening the 2023 pro tennis season with our Australian Open 2023 wrap up! It was a long tournament in some respect but it is apparent that our love and interest in the sport seem to be waning.
As always we got into our feelings on this matter. Can we really remain those committed fans as before with so much going on and the messy coverage of the sport? We spoke about that as well as the state of the men's game. Is Nole really injured or extremely injured? What of Sabalenka's rise to the top? It was a spirited discussion filled with love and laughter. I love us so much!!

We wouldn't be this podcast IF we didn't continue out special of reviewing the new Black Panther film! And of course we invited two of our favourite friends to come on in and discuss the movie, from Geeks Unleashed (@GeeksUnleashed) Jaz (@fiorebianca) and from Block Central "O" (@olutrain). Of course we have your usual suspect, Andreen (@A_Galivant), Janina (@JLR78) and Realz (@RealzTenisFanz).
We went in on this movie ... we talk for as long as the movie. I will add no spoilers here but we are all eager to hear from you all and what you thought of the movie!!

We would not be the RealzTenisFanz Podcast if we did not do a special episode on the legacies of both Roger Federer and Serena Williams. We are after all the Federer of Tennis Podcast; the Serena of Sounds! So here is that episode. I am sure there will be another episode where we get to celebrate with a RTFLivecast! We are nothing without you FANZ!!
For this episode we invited Howard Bryant, ESPN Sports Journalist and favourite guest on the show, to keep us honest and on track as we discuss these two giants of the sport. Our fondest memories, their defining traits and their enduring contributions.
We hope that you will enjoy this episode and share in the fun.
PS DO SUPPORT AND ENCOURAGE GREAT, THOUGHTFUL AND ETHICAL JOURNALISM!!! Gawd only knows tennis never seems to inspire much of it. Nonetheless, I invite you to read a recent piece by an often times regular guest of the podcast, Howard Bryant @hbryant42

It is Wimbledon time again and fortunately there are no more slipping and falling on the grass. However, on the other hand, there is no Federer.... but he was on Centre Court!! Why is there even a tournament? Nonetheless, this is a major so we are here for it.
Things got very spicy as we discussed the Serena sighting, Nick's tactic or tactless and Wimbledon's covid policy or lack there of. is Divadal really gonna take this grand slam As always we are getting into it as only we can.

We do not have the audacity to say we are back because we might end up going missing again. But we decided to get together to talk about what is happening in the world of professional tennis seeing as we tried to put the French Open in some context. Yet so much has happened in our absence.
The WTA lost their No. 1 but gained a new one. What does this mean? Coco is a star but she is not a major winner. Rafael Nadal is on a tear like it is 2010 again. He has won his 14th French Open title and 22nd major overall. Meanwhile should Felix be wanting his money back and a new coach? We would not be us without asking what of this Russian/Belarussian ban of Wimbledon.

Sooooo Andreen and Janina decided to go vacationing without moi, Realz and they even brought along their friend Jaz! The audacity!!! What's even more maddening is that they have a great time and sent me pictures of their adventures!
Well you get to hear all about it on this episode of the podcast as they were there allegedly for a tennis event, ATP 500 Acapulco. Though it turns out that not everyone there had tennis on her mind.
The ladies gave us all El Tea in Mexico. Should we even bother to cross the border for this event? What's there to do, see and eat? What of the Mexican waters? What's hotter, the men, the air or the sand? Of course no episode is complete without us getting into another tennis "controversy"!
We wanna thank @fiorebianca (Jasmin/Jaz) for hanging with us on this episode and keeping Janina in check!!!
