I’m trying something new: A short, daily(!?) podcast to keep you up to date with the tennis world. Patterned after the Numbers by Barron’s finance podcast, Expected Points highlights three numbers to illustrate stats, trends, and interesting trivia around the sport. Today’s pilot episode is under four minutes long, and I’ll aim to keep each installment around this length.
Joining me for the inaugural episode is Carl Bialik of the Thirty Love podcast. Given the short duration, this will probably be a solo podcast most of the time, but I look forward to including other voices as time and logistics permit.
Today’s episode features Carlos Alcaraz, superstars falling early in the women’s tournaments, and the imminent return of Roger Federer.
Expected Points isn’t yet on iTunes … or anywhere else, for that matter. It will be soon. In the meantime, you can listen right here using the player below:

(Don’t worry, the long-form Tennis Abstract Podcast isn’t going anywhere–we’ll continue with our sporadic schedule throughout the year.)
