This week Erik and Aidan discuss the Next Gen Finals which took place this past week in Jeddah. In a lot of ways, this tournament was unique, featuring mainly unknown players outside the top 100, with Learner Tien being a massive favorite in the tournament. However, the tournament did still give us an interesting look at the next generation of talent that will be coming up on the ATP tour, as well as showing the level of this rising American talent. We hope you enjoy the episode and be sure to check back next week for another episode!
