Welcome back toooooo…. Hey, Great Shot!!!! Recorded on MLK Monday, Co-Hosts Alex Gruskin and Max Rothman make their triumphant return to the air with an extensive preview of the 2018 Australian Open men’s singles draw. The hosts debate which of the top eight men’s seeds have the hardest paths to the finals, list their favorite potential 2nd, 3rd, and 4th round matches, and highlight their “darkhorse” candidates for the tournament. Also, given that this episode was recorded Monday night, the two could not resist offering their “hot takes” on Day 1’s action, nor refrain from commenting on the Sock/Isner first round debacles. You’ll also want to stick around for this week’s Changeover Chat segment, as Gruskin names some of his favorite betting opportunities in this year’s tournament. Bets include a daring lay against any of Federer, Nadal, or Djokovic winning the tournament, a bet in favor of either Dimitrov, Kyrgios, and Zverev winning, and a risky parlay involving Juan Martin Del Potro. Don’t miss this week’s fake ads either, as the guys found two new companies to sponsor their 2018 season (shoutout to TourneyTopia.com and Dudi’s Mafia).
