"Every time I lose, it's like the end of the world." This is what Mirra Andreeva said after losing the final in Madrid in May of this year. Josh and Brian discuss this quote from a psychological point of view. Although much of the discussion centers on Andreeva, she represents what a lot of players go through when they lose. Her subsequent victory at Roland Garros showed significant growth in her game, her emotional regulation, and her maturity.

Faizan sits down with legendary tennis journalist Steve Flink to break down EVERYTHING: Alexander Zverev's emotional Grand Slam breakthrough, Jannik Sinner's almost unexplainable collapse against Francisco Cerundolo, Novak Djokovic's stylish exit to João Fonseca, and Mirra Andreeva becoming the tournament's youngest champion in years.We also dig into Aryna Sabalenka and Iga Świątek's rough fortnights, what's next for Coco Gauff, and why the next generation (Fonseca, Mensik, Fils) might finally be ready to take over.

Mirra Andreeva caps off an amazing clay season with the biggest clay title possible at Roland Garros. At only 19 years old!If the season before clay wasn't filled with her best moments, Andreeva came back with fire for the clay, winning 22 of 25 matches, and lifting her first major title. While she was pretty much expected to achieve all there is to achieve in tennis, maybe this title at Grand Slam level might have surprised even the best analysts. I personally think this came way sooner than I thought it would, even though I did pick her to win the tournament during our Draw Previews episode.Now, at No.1 in the Race, she has a tangible chance at getting to the top of the rankings, becoming World No.1 for real. But the road ahead won't be easy.The WTA Core Four: Swiatek's episode: https://shows.acast.com/tennis-and-bagels/episodes/iga-swiatek-lost-at-roland-garros-there-are-positivesI have opinions on the performances of the WTA Core Four, meaning Aryna Sabalenka, Elena Rybakina, Iga Swiatek, and Coco Gauff. It ranges from "it's fine, it happens," to "this could trigger the end of her peak."In particular, Sabalenka had possibly the worst result, even if she's gotten the furthest in the tournament. Losing 10 games in a row when you're serving for the match is an epic meltdown.

Sono Alexander Zverev e Mirra Andreeva i campioni di singolare del Roland Garros 2026. La russa Andreeva ha sconfitto sabato in una finale a senso unico la polacca Maja Chwalinska, mentre nella giornata finale di domenica Alexander Zverev è finalmente riuscito a sconfiggere la maledizione che lo voleva sempre perdente nei tornei dello Slam superando in cinque set Flavio Cobolli in un match per lunghi tratti emozionante ma con tanti alti e bassi a livello tecnico. Vanni Gibertini, tornato da Parigi, e Luca Baldissera tirano le somme del secondo Slam stagionale e come al solito rispondono alle domande degli ascoltatori. ---Anche per il 2026 ritorna il GoFundMe per le trasmissioni di Vanni Gibertini e Luca Baldissera. Raccontare il tornei di tennis dal posto è un valore aggiunto insostituibile, ma i costi sono ormai diventati difficilmente gestibili senza un aiuto, anche piccolo, da parte degli appassionati che ci dovessero ritenere meritevoli. Le donazioni per le passate stagioni sono state fondamentali, un ringraziamento enorme, di cuore, va a chiunque sarà tanto generoso da continuare, o iniziare a partecipare a questa iniziativa.Per il 2026, abbiamo finalmente un titolo: "Close Call", il tennis raccontato da vicino.https://www.gofundme.com/f/close-call-dirette-e-trasferte-2026-luca-e-vanni

Capítulo de cierre grabado el mismo domingo de la final masculina, todavía masticando lo que acabamos de ver. Felipe conduce con Martín de vuelta del periplo parisino y el regreso de Hugo Romero después de varias semanas ausente (con gorrito de Rafa para la ocasión).Alexander Zverev finalmente levanta un Grand Slam. Más de cuatro horas, cinco sets, nervios a tope de ambos lados y los recuerdos de Vietnam siempre rondando (Tien en US Open, Alcaraz en RG 2024). Analizamos el partido set por set: el 6-1 demoledor del primer set en 39 minutos, el quiebre emocional del segundo set donde Cobolli encuentra los golpes, el tercer set chicoteado con un break point salvado de 23 shots, el cuarto donde Sacha se quiebra solo con dobles faltas, y el quinto set donde el quiebre clave en el 3-0 con tres break points en contra termina sellando el título.Antes del cierre, también la final femenina del sábado. Mirra Andreeva a los 19 años cumple con las expectativas largamente acumuladas y vence a Maja Chwalinska, la polaca lucky loser que vino desde la quali sin sponsor y casi sin hotel, tapando bocas durante dos semanas. Conchita Martínez como coach detrás del juego españolizado de Andreeva, paciencia y construcción.Y el debate que se viene: ¿dónde queda Zverev en el legado del tenis? Hugo y Felipe lo ponen bajo Medvedev (ser número uno pesa). Más las evaluaciones de pronósticos previos (todos nos caímos feo en algún momento), revelaciones (los italianos Cobolli y Arnaldi, jodar a pesar de la caída, el holandés de Jong como lucky loser hasta octavos), decepciones (Tsitsipas, Shelton y Fritz), la despedida de Stan Wawrinka, el campeón junior brasileño y la mira puesta en la temporada de pasto.Síguenos en Instagram @lucklosers_podcast Twitter @LuckyLoserscast  @luckyloserstenis Youtube https://www.youtube.com/@luckyloserspodcast8246

Doch Mitte des ersten Satzes konnte sich Andreeva dann absetzen und verlor in der Folge nur noch ein Spiel. Dieses Mal war es Chwalinska, die die Fehler machte.
