Happy Tuesday!
This episode of The GIST of It is jam-packed with headlines from the tennis courts to the hardwood. First, co-hosts Ellen Hyslop and Steph Rotz dive into the newly announced partnership between the Women’s Tennis Association (WTA) and the Saudi Arabian Public Investment Fund (PIF), an eyebrow-raising alliance considering the country’s reputation for sportswashing and their treatment of women and the LGBTQIA+ community.
Then it’s all about hoops in parts two and three. First, the gals preview the NBA Conference Finals before taking a temperature check on the WNBA after Week 1, peeling back the curtains on the latest investigation into the Las Vegas Aces and discussing how rookies like Caitlin Clark are adjusting to the pros.
