Episode Notes

Tennis icon Lindsay Davenport joined Viv and Matt during AO 2026 to reflect on a career that delivered three Grand Slam singles titles, the world No.1 ranking in both singles and doubles, and an Olympic gold medal. Davenport’s prodigious ball striking and clean power made her a standout figure among a WTA golden generation. She often battled fellow legends including Steffi Graf, Martina Hingis, and Venus and Serena Williams in her Grand Slam finals. The last major final was in 2000 at the Australian Open, a beloved tournament where many of her career milestones came. Since retiring in 2008, Davenport has coached Madison Keys, worked as a highly respected tennis analyst and broadcaster, served as captain of the US Billie Jean King Cup team and also helps guide son Jagger, one of the world’s top juniors who now competes in college tennis for Stanford.
