Hello and welcome
back to the Irish Tennis Updates Podcast.
In this episode I’ve
been talking to Conor Niland. Conor has been on the show before talking about
his career, and his role as Davis Cup captain, but now he’s back to talk about
his best-selling book “The Racket”. The book has been a best-seller in Ireland
since it was released at the start of June.
We talk about the
process of writing the book, the busy two months since it was released, and
also touch on some of the highlights from the book. Towards the end of the chat
we also talk about the upcoming Davis Cup tie against Tunisia, and the return
of the Irish Open this year to Carrickmines.

Hello and welcome
back to the Irish Tennis Updates Podcast.
This episode I’ve
been chatting to Simon Carr, who recently retired from pro tennis after several
years as the Irish ATP number one player. Simon was on the show before, during
the first lockdown in 2020, and it great to catch up with him again and hear
how his last few years have gone.
We talk about his
injury struggles, his highs and lows in tennis since 2020 and the difficult
decision to retire from tennis. He mentions Davis Cup as a big motivation that
kept him in the game. We also talk about what’s next for Simon.

Hello and welcome
back to the Irish Tennis Updates Podcast.
In this episode I’m
reviewing the recent Davis Cup tie in Limerick. I do this with the help of Sam
Barry, who was at the event commentating for Premier Sports on live TV within
Ireland. We both agree it was a fantastic event with a lot of positives for Irish
tennis.
Over the weekend I
got the chance to interview some of the players, including Dominic Thiem, Sebastian
Ofner and Michael Agwi. This episode also features the audio from these
interviews.
The draw for the
next round has been done and Ireland has drawn Tunisia away in the next round,
which will take place in September. There is a lot to build on for the Irish
team as they look ahead to this tie.

Hello and welcome

This time I’m
chatting to Davis Cup captain Conor Niland to look ahead to the upcoming tie
Ireland vs Austria in Limerick on 3rd and 4th February.
This is the first home tie in Ireland since 2015 and promises to be a great
weekend of tennis.
We chat about the
tie itself, the players likely to play on both sides and some of Ireland’s
recent ties that have led to this point. This includes recent away wins against
El Salvador and Barbados. We also talk about some of the tougher Davis Cup years
spent in group 3 and group 4.
This is a great
chat to get in the mood for the upcoming tie. If you’re lucky enough to have a

Ever since I started this podcast, I’ve known that I had to have a chat with James McGee. And finally, here is that episode!
James is a legend of Irish tennis and is probably our most successful player in the last 10-15 years. He reached the top 150 in the world ATP, won a Challenger event in 2016, and in 2014 he qualified for the main draw of the US Open. He also won many crucial matches for Ireland in the Davis Cup.
These days James is based in Las Vegas and works for the Inspiring Children Foundation, where he is making a big difference in the lives of so many young people, giving them the chance for a better future.
