Aldwin is back as the guys break down a monumental Australian Open. Ash Barty becomes the first Australian woman in 44 years to win her home slam (the third of her grand slam trophy of her career), winning it in dominate fashion. She becomes one of two active players to have won grand slams on all surfaces... the other is named Serena.  On the men's side, Rafael Nadal achieves what no one saw coming ... returning from a foot injury, and with Novak out of the tournament, Rafa capitalizes to become the first of the "Big 3" to reach 21 grand slam titles, coming back from two sets down to defeat Daniil Medvedev. In a career filled with countless achievements, is this Rafa's greatest?  The guys break down both the men's and women's events, including the continued rise of Danielle Collins, the success of players who took extended breaks in Keys and Anisimova, and reflect on the trials and crushed dreams of Daniil... thanks a lot AO fans! Oh... and DelPo is making his return!  Kicking off Season 3 with sales on select merch from the  Ready Play Shopify store!
