James Blake was, at his height, the #4 best tennis player in the world. He beat Rafa Nadal and Roger Federer. Now he’s a commentator who still watches the game. We talk about drugs in the sport, his greatest matches, his forehand technique, and how hard it is for him to now find someone who’s interesting for him to hit with which is why he’s now getting into… pickleball. Recorded in Brooklyn in front of an audience of tennis players.
