On Monday Match Analysis, Gill Gross previews the 2026 US Open Men's Singles draw quarter-by-quarter. Alexander Zverev is a top-seed for the first time in his career, Carlos Alcaraz returns for his first tournament since March, Felix Auger-Aliassime is the three seed and Novak Djokovic continues his quest for 25. Young risers Arthur Fils and Rafael Jodar hope this is the moment for their slam arrival. And as always the Americans bring a volume of contenders from Ben Shelton to Taylor Fritz, to Frances Tiafoe to Tommy Paul and Brandon Nakashima.
After spending the day in the US Open press conference room, Catherine Whitaker, David Law and Matt Roberts react to what the top players had to say as they prepare for the tournament. Part one - We discuss the way Carlos Alcaraz left us feeling positive about his return from injury, detailing that his wrist has felt fine in practice, that he's using his experience of being injured in 2024 to help him, and that he plans to play his usual game style. So what can we expect from him this tournament? There's also chat about how the other men's contenders - such as Ben Shelton, Alexander Zverev and Taylor Fritz - are largely playing down any talk of this being a big opportunity with Jannik Sinner not in the draw. What do we make of that? Part two (22:10) - On the women's side, defending champion Aryna Sabelenka has been struggling for form recently. In what way was she defensive about that in her press conference? And can we read anything into it? Coco Gauff, on the other hand, discussed how she's in a much better place mentally and with her game compared to twelve months ago, while Alexandra Eala spoke with incredible maturity about understanding her growing influence on the sport. Part three (43:45) - We cover some of the stories from qualifying, including more heartbreak for 2019 champion Bianca Andreescu, defeat for the retiring 2014 finalist Kei Nishikori, and lots of British success.For ad-free listening and bonus content, Become a Friend.

Coup de tonnerre avant le coup d'envoi de l'US Open ! Avec le forfait de Jannik Sinner et un Carlos Alcaraz de retour de blessure mais sans le moindre repère sur dur, le tableau masculin perd ses principales certitudes.

Catherine, David and Matt catch up as Cincinnati reaches the quarter-finals stage after a Last 16 bonanza which saw both top seeds lose. Part one - WTA (00:00 - 26:35). We react to yet another early exit for Aryna Sabalenka, this time to the impressive Sara Beljek. We discuss what Bejlek did well but also what is going on with Sabalenka. How much trouble is she in heading into New York? There's also chat about Elena Rybakina's chance to seize the World No.1 Ranking, and whether Amanda Anisimova can finally get a win over Jessica Pegula after finding her best form to beat Alex Eala and Linda Noskova. Part two - ATP (26:36 - 46:36). Taylor Fritz is the only Masters 1000 champion left in the field following Alexander Zverev's loss from match point up against Tommy Paul. How much of a concern is Zverev's form ahead of the US Open? We also reflect on Flavio Cobolli's excellent comeback to beat Rafael Jodar, Lorenzo Musetti's quiet run of form which he can now put to the test against Frances Tiafoe, and David's excitement about Arthur Fils is growing. Part three - News (46:37 - 1:14:37). We react to the US Open mixed doubles field, its wildcard announcements, and Nick Kyrgios testing positive for cocaine.

A normal Thursday turned into three stories at once: Alcaraz announcing his US Open return, the USTA's record $108 million prize money package & Slam Player Council, and Karen Moorhouse stepping down as CEO of the ITIA. Andy and Jon get into what a 20% prize money increase actually buys the players, why first-round qualifying money is now higher than what Andy earned reaching the main draw, and the ticket price fight that's about to define this tournament — including why the $400 grounds passes people are screenshotting on Twitter aren't the USTA's list price. COMMENT BELOW: Are you excited for Carlos Alcaraz return?

Catherine, David and Matt react to the first few days of action across Canada as the men's top seeds fall by the wayside. Part one (00:00 - 44:35) Unfortunately we start with an update on the abundance of injury news on the ATP Tour, including Carlos Alcaraz delaying his comeback and withdrawing from Cincinnati, as well as reports in Italy that Jannik Sinner is dealing with a knee issue. What do we make of all that? The tournament in Montreal hasn't been immune to injury woe either and we discuss the sad withdrawal of Felix Auger-Aliassime and the crushing scene of Jack Draper in tears on court. Moving on to the actual tennis, there's chat about Alexander Zverev losing to Tallon Griekspoor, a win for Boric van de Zandschulp over Daniil Medvedev, another opportunity missed by Alex de Minaur, a second straight win for Rafael Jodar over the returning Lorenzo Musetti, and our picks for the title from here. Part two (44:46 - 1:01:45) While the men's event in Montreal has been defined by big names going out, there hasn't been many upsets in Toronto, except for Wimbledon champion Linda Noskova losing to Caty McNally. We discuss that result, Aryna Sabalenka doing enough to keep her No.1 ranking, and more incredible scenes at Alexandra Eala's matches. There's also reaction to Amanda Anisimova's dramatic win over Nikola Bartunkova and a look ahead to some of the blockbuster matches which have been set up. Part three (1:01:46 - 1:16:32) We discuss the first comments from players about the new WTA genetic sex testing policy and take a look at what the WTA appointing IMG as its production partner for broadcast could mean.

Jannik Sinner is the clear front runner for the US Open, and even Cincinnati. Who can even stand against him still? The question continues to hover around the only other guys to make Grand Slam finals this year: Carlos Alcaraz, Alexander Zverev, and Novak Djokovic. Zverev won Roland Garros, but will this make him any better when it's go-time against his biggest rivals? Novak Djkovic is a major wild card, at 39 years old he might still pull off a huge upset and plays better than all the top 10 except for Sinner and Alcaraz. Where does his body take him at the US Open? Carlos Alcaraz is set to come back from injury in his right wrist. How close to his best will he get by the US Open?

For one last time at Wimbledon in 2026, Catherine, David and Matt were live on YouTube to react to Jannik Sinner beating Alexander Zverev 6-7 7-6 6-3 6-4 to defend his title at SW19. We discuss the way Zverev hit his forehand better than ever to take a one set lead, how Sinner stayed calm to raise his game and level up, and the final two sets which saw the Italian take charge. Should Zverev take the positives from pushing Sinner more than he has done in a while? Or will the fact he still fell short mean this one stings just as much? As for Sinner, we cover the importance of this title for his career as he bounced back from such disappointment at Roland Garros, and what the next few months could look like for him as Carlos Alcaraz's future remains uncertain. We also round up the day's other results, reflect on the tournament as a whole, and say lots of big thank yous as our Wimbledon coverage concludes for another year.

Catherine, David and Matt were live moments after Linda Noskova became Wimbledon champion, defeating her Czech compatriot Karolina Muchova 6-2 5-7 6-3 in what became a dramatic final. We start by discussing the important moments in the match; Noskova's sublime performance at the start to build a 6-2 5-2 lead, the choke which saw her lose five match points across three games and be taken to a third set, and her remarkable reset to then win that deciding set. How did Noskova pull it all off? How surprising was Muchova's slow start? And what might the future hold for both Noskova and Muchova? We also run through the day's other results, discuss Henry Patten standing up for doubles, and look ahead to tomorrow's men's final between Jannik Sinner and Alexander Zverev.

What was it like to be in the stadium? And how much will those five hours on court take out of Djokovic ahead of his semi-final showdown against Jannik Sinner?
