Rajeev Ram & Austin Krajicek on Their Silver Medal Olympic Experience, Beating Nadal & Alcaraz
About this episode
🎾🥈 Austin Krajicek and Rajeev Ram won an Olympic Silver medal for Team USA at the 2024 Olympics. I spoke with them a few weeks after the Olympics to hear about their experience in Paris, beating Rafael Nadal & Carlos Alcaraz, working with the Bryan Bros, and more.
We talked about how difficult it was to close out their quarterfinal match against Nadal and Alcaraz with the crowd so against them. What were they feeling and saying in those moments? They also shared how "comforting" it was to have the doubles GOATs, Bob and Mike Bryan, in Paris with them. At the end, they share the overall Olympic experience and how it felt to be there with Team USA.
Rajeev and Austin will both compete at the US Open next week, and I'll be there as well. Watch them and all the doubles action on ESPN Plus. If you're attending in person, let me know. I'd love to meet you.
