Courtside Conversations – Episode 13

In this thirteenth episode of your podcast, Gigi Salmon and Alizé Cornet look back at a season packed with breakthroughs, milestones and well-deserved confirmations.

On November 2, Alizé Cornet officially became manager of France’s women’s national teams and captain of the French Billie Jean King Cup squad, just two months after bringing her professional playing career to a definitive close.

Clear-headed in her decision and honoured to take on these new responsibilities, the 35-year-old from Nice looks back on her appointment and shares her enduring love for the sport, a discipline she continued to follow closely throughout 2025. The season delivered plenty to talk about, from the five different women’s champions at the Grand Slams and WTA Finals to the extraordinary duel at the top of the men’s game between Carlos Alcaraz and Jannik Sinner, highlighted by their historic showdown on court Philippe-Chatrier.

From standout individual performances in 2025 to the delicate balance between personal life and professional demands and even the hope of seeing new faces rise in the months ahead, nothing was left off the table in this 13th episode.
