This week, Justin and Jody come clean about their own moments—from an argument that nearly got Jody defaulted to Justin damaging a windscreen and taking a loss out on his car door. We’re no better 😂We also talk about a player trying to steal a point before complimenting the shot, Jody’s six-match losing streak, and how we try to reset when things aren’t going our way.Plus, we answer your questions about pre-match routines, getting heckled by crowds, life on the road, and what we’d do differently if we were starting tennis again at 15.
