JG & Ben preview the women's US Open 2026 draw & give their predictions! We break down the women's draw, analyse the biggest contenders and make our picks for who will go all the way in New York. Can Coco Gauff capture another US Open title? How far can Alex Eala go? And which favourites, dark horses and surprise packages could shake up the 2026 US Open draw? We go through the key sections of the bracket, potential blockbuster matchups, upset picks and our predictions for the quarter-finals, semi-finals and champion. Let us know your US Open 2026 winner in the comments!

One of us is heading to New York for the 2026 US Open as we speak. On our preview episode, we talk about the first real fight for the women's #1 ranking in a while; the surging Gauff, Swiatek, and Pegula; the absolute state of the men's draw without Jannik and with a questionable Alcaraz; and those poised for huge breakthroughs if things shake out right (Fils? Eala?). We discuss the wild card snub and later non-snub of Stan Wawrinka. Later, some reflections on the mixed doubles exhibition – fun ‘til it wasn't – and the joy of seeing Muchova and Mensik win and the extroversion twins Carlos and Serena hang out together.     1:30 Coco & Arthur take Cincinnati 7:50 The race for #1 and other WTA storylines  10:35 Women's draw 24:05 Wild cards are not meritocratic (and they're not supposed to be) 30:10 Men's draw: Carlos is back, Jannik is not 42:05 The mixed doubles exhibition 51:10 The Roger Federer Laser Light Show 54:30 Remembering Dolly Parton

The US Open is in full swing, and injuries have knocked out some of the biggest athletes in the men's tournament. But there's no shortage of star power on the women's side: Filipina tennis sensation Alex Eala is on fire, inspiring “Eala-mania” all over the world. To get us up to speed on the tournament, we chat with Giri Nathan, senior correspondent at the tennis outlet The Second Serve. After that, we attempt to answer one of the inescapable questions of our time: Why are so many people obsessed with pickleball? Clare Frank was a firefighter for more than 30 years. When she retired, she stumbled into the game. At first, she didn't quite get the hype — but like so many retirees who came before her, Clare quickly became captivated by pickleball. In her latest book, “Just One More Game: A Pickleball Quest,” Clare dives headfirst into the world of pickleball to try to figure out how it has become the fastest-growing sport in the United States. Spoiler alert: It's not just your grandmother's game anymore.Show Notes Just One More Game: A Pickleball Quest by Clare Frank How Pickleball Got Its Name | USA Pickleball Wanna play?

Catching up after a month away from the mic, Ben and Tumaini discuss events and characters of the past month, catching up with recent events in Cincinnati. And we had so much to say about the present states of the defining players of our tennis lives, Venus and Serena Williams, that we decided to make this lengthy first topic of discussion into a standalone episode.  Venus and Serena brought us both into tennis; how should these legends leave the sport, now that it's become increasingly clear that their time as competitive players has run out? More on everything else—Canada withdrawals, Shelton, Swiatek, Vondrousova, Eala, Jodar, genetic testing, Lauryn Hill—soon, but we clearly had a lot to say about the Williams Sisters in what looks like their closing chapter. Thank you for listening! You can read Ben's work at Bounces and Tumaini's at The Guardian. Our Patreon is back up and running to ensure NCR keeps going and stays ad-free, and we hope you can join in supporting NCR! And we especially thank our GOAT backers: Pam Shriver and J. O'D.

In "Serving Aces" Alexandra Stevenson and Hugues Laverdiere go over Cincinnati results.  They give shout outs to Eala and Shelton - both out of Cincinnati - but Alexandra says it's good for both of them going into the US Open.  They question the play of Alcaraz and Rudd in the mixed doubles - doubting that Alcaraz will play singles.  Alexandra gives a rundown of the mixed doubles, a fiery exhibition before the main draw for the top players.  In newsy notes she mentions the potential sale of the LA Lakers - with the recent stop from Jeannie Buss, whose family still controls 17.8 percent.  Buss is the Governor of the Lakers and wants to remain in that role.  Her brothers want to sell.  They will stand to make 2.5 billion out of the 12.5 billion that is being offered for the sale - from Josh Kushner and Disney's Bob Iger.  Fun note  - Kate Hudson appeared in "Running Point" - a semi autobiographical television series based on Jeannie Buss and the Lakers.

We're clocking back in for August, the month of two bloated Masters 1000 events; Eala-mania hits DC and Toronto while Montreal is rocked by high-profile withdrawals and general floppery. Next, we break down the full decision on Marketa Vondrousova's refusal case, and let's just say she didn't give her lawyers much to work with. Let's not even mention the infamous text (we will). Next, we look at the fallout of the WTA gender testing announcement, then finish up with a day that will live in infamy: corn rows and fishnets and a demonic photoshoot, oh my.  3:40 We're in Toronto, but also not 16:15 Eala-mania in DC, plus Los Cabos & Memphis 28:10 Breaking down the Vondrousova decision so you don't have to read it (unless you're an enthusiast like me)  39:55 Not the Italian Greyhound catching strays 47:45 Checking back in on the WTA gender testing fallout 60:35 A cursed trifecta

Alex Eala vs Belinda Bencic – who wins this huge matchup?

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.

Career-high No. 39 Eva Lys is our guest for one of our favorite conversations of the year. We chat about growing up with her dad as a coach, the friends she's made on Tour, and why her social media works without ever feeling forced. She also opens up about the financial reality of life on Tour, balancing sponsorships with tennis, and why WTA is more exciting than ATP.Before Eva joins us, we break down a huge week in Washington. Alex Eala's incredible title run has everyone asking just how high her ceiling really is, while Taylor Fritz proves once again why the North American hard courts bring out his best. We also answer your fan questions, including whether a right-handed Rafa would still be one of the greatest players ever. Plus, how Alcaraz's new No. 3 seeding could shake up the US Open draw, dating apps for tennis players, an extremely serious ranking of Carlos' many hairstyles... and, somehow, a draft of the songs guaranteed to get every white person singing at full volume.00:00 We're Back!01:56 Fritz Does It Again04:29 Eala Mania Arrives04:59 White People Songs10:14 Welcoming Eva Lys11:15 Growing Up Around Tennis12:24 Life Beyond the Tour13:22 Friends on Tour14:58 Favorite Cities on Tour16:12 Social Media Without the Cringe17:43 Rating Eva as an Influencer19:17 Why the WTA Is So Open21:05 Breakthrough Moments22:20 Tour's Most Underrated Players24:48 WTA vs. ATP26:38 When Social Media Becomes Your Job28:08 Sponsorships Behind the Scenes29:09 The Financial Reality of Injuries30:25 Instagram vs. TikTok31:28 Prize Money Perspective33:17 The Great Airline Miles Debate34:45 Reality TV Draft41:57 One Last Challenge47:22 Wimbledon Bracket Winners48:31 Fan Questions48:31 Carlos as Seed No. 3?51:29 What if Rafa was Right-Handed?54:32 Dating Apps on Tour55:57 Ranking Carlos Alcaraz's Hairstyles58:20 See You Next Week!

Tennis broadcaster Candy Reid returns to the podcast to recap the Washington DC Open, where Alexandra Eala won her maiden title and dispatched some of the most talented names in the game to do so.

The broadcaster also reacts to Taylor Fritz capturing the men's crown in the US capital, and finalist Rafael Jodar's consistency in his rookie year on the ATP. Reid highlights all the action from Canada, where Ben Shelton looks to defend his title. The commentator looks at Elena Rybakina's form, Marta Kostyuk's athleticism, and Jessica Pegula's chances to add that elusive first major. And Reid reacts to the news that Carlos Alcaraz will not play in Cincinnati, as the talented Spaniard's US Open title defense hangs in the balance. Hosted by Mitch Michals.
