New SMASH Column Now Available!

After a dismal week of weather here in Michigan, I'm more than ready to head to Palo Alto for the NCAA Division I tennis championships. Before I look ahead to that, however, I did want to note that my SMASH column from Monday is now posted.

And speaking of SMASH, its editor, James Martin, was a guest on tennisliveonline.com last week and an interview with him about the magazine and his new job as editor-in-chief of TENNIS Magazine is available as archived audio. You do need to join, but it's free and simple and in the few months that I've been listening, I've been impressed by their guests and their interest in college tennis. Matt Bruch of Stanford and Ryan Sherry are guests this week, along with crack tennis reporter Matt Cronin. With all the sports radio talk shows out there, very little time is spent discussing tennis, so it is great to have at least one hour devoted to the sport every Saturday.
