You don’t have to be a fixture on r/tennis or even a tennis fan to appreciate our awesome playlist. It’s filled with some great tunes from the likes of The Ting Tings and Le Tigre to The Heavy and Jane’s Addiction.
That said, it does help to be a tennis fan.
Ever since she burst into the WTA tour in the spring of 2023, “Sixteen-Year-Old Mirra Andreeva” has been such a constant presence in sports headlines that you’d think Mirra is her middle name. Now that the Russian tennis prodigy is turning seventeen, sportscasters the whole world over will need to just STOP!
We don’t want to ruin the twist as you read through the song titles, so that’s all we’re going to say about it. Enjoy and stay tuned for our next playlist, where we’ll have more fun with something new we see or hear in the tennis world.

About the Curators
Jane Asylum
I’ve set-off around the world a few times as a digital nomad. My favorite places are off-the-beaten-path spaces. I enjoy good food, although I’m a sucker for trying anything once. Discovering new music and artists is a passion, but I adore retro tracks and nostalgic songs. Whether fueled by imagination, or anchored in the real world, I live for adventure, especially when set to the beat of diverse and eclectic playlists.
Ready. Set. Join me on a sonic adventure!

Born in Porto, Portugal, I'm an architect, a designer, a writer, a poet, a translator, etc. I have an eclectic taste in music—but less in that non-committal way people sometimes say "I have an eclectic taste in music" and more in that I'm really into some really weird stuff.
