thank you @LibraryJournal for the starred review of CHANGEOVER!
I spent Stage 14 of the Tour de France inside the race, riding with the mechanics in the neutral service car. Here's what it was like: defector.com/a-day-inside-t…
New @NCR_Tennis! With @tumcarayol and CHANGEOVER author @girinathan on the latest chapter of Sinner-Alcaraz, as well as Swiatek baking a double bagel in a Slam final, and Bill Ackman's wild(card) time in Newport. Listen here: nochallengesremaining.podbean.com/e/wimbledon-fi…
I am hosting a new podcast, coming this fall from Defector and Radiotopia, called Only If You Get Caught! It is about breaking the rules, and why people do so. defector.com/try-hard-only-…
What so many do not understand, and I write about this in my book: Jannik Sinner is a tennis player, yes, but he’s really an introvert. The long pauses. The evasive replies. The sedate celebrations. He is just trying to cook some bozos on court and go home. No one else does that
What so many do not seem to understand, and I write about this in my book: Caitlin Clark is a basketball player, yes, but she’s really an entertainer. The long 3s. The passes. The fast pace. She is a high-wire act. She brings in new fans to be entertained. No one else does that.
Jannik secondo miglior italiano di sempre con il manicotto.
every time I see them melting in the stands at Wimbledon I’m amazed they were able to colonize the subcontinent
people say sports are rigged….it’s true they are rigged by book marketing depts on behalf of obscure debut authors. thank you to my subjects Carlos Alcaraz & Jannik Sinner for agreeing to meet in their second straight major final this Sunday at Wimbledon

well….… not the final I expected but very much enjoyed this Anisimova run
"Some people have an obvious destiny, and it seemed that Amanda Anisimova's was to hit backhands—angled and breaking the sideline, flat and blasting through the baseline, any trajectory seeming possible from any court position." — @girinathan thesecondserve.com/break-on-throu…
Ok maybe it’s performance art
And yes, the competition were clearly holding back. That made it even more difficult as I had too much time to think.
Thanks Jon… I hope all the Sinner/Alcaraz fans out there enjoy CHANGEOVER
Much respect to @girinathan for this forthcoming book. Much respect to the publisher who had the foresight to greenlight a Sinner/Alcaraz proposal in 2023....Preorder here: - amazon.co.uk/Changeover-You…
This Wimbledon is looking a little sunnier for Andrey Rublev. It seems to me that both of those conditions for success—a decent draw and a sound mind—have been met." — @girinathan thesecondserve.com/andrey-the-gia…
