Episode 102 of the Tennis Abstract Podcast<\/a> welcomes back Erik Jonsson (@erktennis<\/a>), previously heard on Episode 77<\/a> of the show in November of 2019.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Erik is a longtime Challenger and prospect watcher, and he shares his thoughts on Lorenzo Musetti<\/a>, Aslan Karatsev<\/a>, Jannik Sinner<\/a>, Carlos Alcaraz<\/a>, Sebastian Korda<\/a>, and more. We talk about how to identify future tour-level stars by watching Challenger matches, whether there is any hope of another top-tenner as short as Diego Schwartzman<\/a>, why Sweden hasn’t produced a female tennis superstar, what constitutes a legit top-20 player, and much more.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
