Mailbag: Who Will Be the Next First-Time Grand Slam Winner?

Hey everyone,

We’ve got time for a quick, speed-round mailbag today. But first…

• Taylor Fritz—now in the top 50—is this week’s SI/Tennis Channel podcast guest, in advance of his playing the NextGen event in Milan.

• Next up, Jamie Lisanti and I talk tennis in 2018.

• We’ll beat the crush and wish American treasure Billie Jean King a happy 75th birthday.

Onward...

Simple question: With Karen Khachanov winning in Paris and Elina Svitolina winning in Singapore, I ask: Who is the next player to win their first Slam?
