World #1, Austin Krajicek, joins the show for the second time. We recorded from the hotel lobby in Miami where Austin had a few days off due to weather.
Listen to my previous interview with Austin here: https://www.thetennistribe.com/austin-krajicek-interview/
We discuss how he spent his off days, book recommendations, hotel choices in Miami, the no-ad/10-point breaker format, and his 2024 season so far. Austin and his partner, Ivan Dodig, have made one final this year but have had some very close losses that he believes will even out over time. At Indian Wells, they lost 10-7 in the third to the eventual champions who only dropped that one set all week.
You'll hear how Austin focuses on the process and doesn't put too much weight on any one tournament or month. He uses a "52-week mindset". You'll also hear Austin discuss his Olympic plans and thoughts on making doubles more fan-friendly.
