Episode 5: #NextGen American Jared Donaldson

Welcome toooooo…. Hey, Great Shot!! In this week’s episode, Hosts Alex Gruskin and Max Rothman carry on with their #NextGen American Series with an exploration into the life, hobbies, and tennis game of Jared Donaldson. The two jibe Donaldson for his performance in the ATP World Tour’s “At Home” Youtube series, debate the impact training in Argentina had on his development, name their favorite and least favorite things about his game, and make their cases for why Donaldson may or may not be the best player of the #NextGen Americans. Not to be forgotten, the two end with a “Changeover Chat”. This week’s chat features predictions for the #NextGen Tour Finals, speculating on the potential Australian Open Wild Card Challenge winners, and a continuation of the two’s new series, “Tennis Myths”. As two former tennis players, Gruskin and Rothman know the importance of eating the right food before big matches.
