Patrick McEnroe welcomes 25-time major champion, youngest ever world No. 1 and Hall of Famer Martina Hingis to her TennisWorthy Podcast debut.

Legendary Rivalries: Her experiences battling the power of the Williams sisters, the tenacity of Jennifer Capriati, and the speed of Stefanie Graf. The Evolution of the Game: How she navigated the shift from tactical "touch" tennis to the modern era of pure power (and social media).

In just a matter of days, Martina Hingis will celebrate the 30th anniversary of her Australian Open debut, where in 1995 she played her first Grand Slam tournament and won her first match at just 14 years of age. Two years later, she won the title, the first of three in a row and an incredible six consecutive AO finals. She loved the conditions so much she installed several Rebound Ace courts at her home and training bases, and fondly recalls her memories of her time and milestones in Melbourne. She set several records with her performances, some of which are being recalled now thanks to the achievements of the current generation. Hingis, still an avid follower of tennis, is well aware of this and loves watching many of today's stars — continuing a relationship with a sport which has shaped her life and brought immense joy. iHeart Spotify Apple Podcasts PodLink Host handles: @Viv_Christie @MattyAT See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
