About this episode
Back together in Melbourne for one of their favorite occasions in tennis, Ben and Tumaini jumped on the chance to record a show about the second edition of their beloved "1 Point Slam," the pre-Australian Open event which they fell in love with a year ago.
We discuss this year's bigger and--often--better event, the strong play by the WTA players in particular, and the surprise finalists.
What makes this event so good? And what could be even better?
