  • Great New Podcast!

    Great synergy guys, you have that Coco/Brad California connection. It’s too bad that Andreescu rolled over after winning the 1st set in a thrilling breaker. What happened? Injury? Mental meltdown?

    Keep the excellent insight and commentary coming, we’re listening! 🫡

  • Coco 🤢🤮

    Can’t listen to this if Coco is on. Much like when she’s calling matches for TC, it’s a mute for me. She is unprofessional and frankly sounds like an entitled brat or worse a sore loser. It’s a skip for me despite all the other great talent-looking at you Andrea.

  • Love Petko

    Petko and Petchey provide quick original takes on tennis and are a joy. Petko in particular speaks and thinks with eloquence. I find most of the other commentators on The Big T far less insightful

  • Worst Tennis Podcast Ever

    I listen to every tennis podcast out there & The Big T is easily the worst. Tennis Channel should be embarrassed to have their name associated with this abomination. The 3 hosts, Brad, Coco, & Danielle sound beyond unprofessional & offer nothing of substance to the listener. There are many tennis legends who commentate throughout the year that would’ve been perfect fits to step into the roles of podcast hosts instead of the 3 aforementioned duds.
