Catherine Whitaker, David Law and Matt Roberts convene at the end of women's semi-final night as Aryna Sabalenka and Elena Rybakina booked a final showdown with contrasting wins. Part one - We start by analysing Elena Rybakina's comeback victory over Coco Gauff. How did she gradually take charge of the match? What happened to Gauff's forehand? And how did Rybakina stay so calm and unaffected by the Arthur Ashe Stadium crowd? Part two (16:31) - We discuss Sabalenka's incredible performance to defeat Jessica Pegula in straights. Is there anything Pegula could have done differently? How many more chances in Grand Slams will she have? And how is Sabalenka channelling her desperation to win this title into brilliant performances? Part three (32:36) - Men's semi-finals preview and predictions. Is Karen Khachanov the most dangerous opponent left in the draw for Alexander Zverev? Who will the crowd be cheering for and who will come through when American compatriots Frances Tiafoe and Ben Shelton face off in the night session?Thank you to Steve Furgal's International Tennis Tours Tours4Tennis.com/Podcast, the Premium Hospitality and Experience provider for supporting our US Open coverage.They can organise your dream tennis-watching experience at the biggest tournaments in the world, inducing the WTA Finals held this year at Indian Wells, 8th-15th November.Just go to Tours4Tennis.com/Podcast and use the code DEUCE5 at checkout for 5% off.5% off select WTA Finals packages with code DEUCE5 at tours4tennis.com/podcast.

Aryna Sabalenka vs Jessica Pegula — full preview, head-to-head breakdown and prediction for the SEMIFINAL of the 2026 US Open. The third consecutive year these two have met in the second week at Flushing Meadows, and Pegula is still looking for the answer.Aryna Sabalenka is chasing history. The World No. 1, top seed and TWO-TIME DEFENDING CHAMPION is into the US Open semifinals for a SIXTH STRAIGHT YEAR, still hunting a third consecutive title and her first major of 2026. She was pushed to the brink to get here, surviving Wimbledon champion Linda Noskova 7-6(1), 3-6, 7-6(7) in a quarterfinal that went to a deciding tiebreak, after earlier beating Taylor Townsend in straight sets.Jessica Pegula is chasing something she has never had: a first Grand Slam title. The third seed leads the ENTIRE WTA TOUR with 34 hard-court wins this season and has 50 match wins overall in 2026, with titles in Dubai and Charleston, a run to the DC Open final in Washington and the Cincinnati final. She came through an all-American quarterfinal against Emma Navarro 3-6, 6-4, 6-3.But New York keeps ending the same way. Sabalenka beat her in the 2024 US OPEN FINAL and again in last year's SEMIFINAL — and leads the overall head-to-head 9-4. Pegula has never beaten her at this tournament.The encouraging news for the American: the recent form has flipped. Pegula has won two of their last three meetings, including 6-4, 6-7(4), 6-0 in the Berlin semifinals this season. She has the tools. She has never had them work here.

David Law and Matt Roberts are on site at the US Open to react to a quite extraordinary day of action which finished with Ben Shelton defeating Carlos Alcaraz in a deciding set tiebreak at 3:33am, guaranteeing an American's men's finalist on Sunday. Part one - We discuss the story of Shelton's crazy win over Alcaraz, the reasons why Alcaraz for once came up short in one of these epic matches, and why it was the best tennis we've ever seen Shelton play. Shelton will face fellow American Frances Tiafoe in the semi-finals after he won his own deciding set tiebreak over Alex Michelsen. Did Michelsen choke when he served for the match? How did Tiafoe turn it around? And what made the hug they shared at the end so beautiful? Part two (35:07) - We discuss why Aryna Sabalenka's victory over Linda Noskova - also in a final set tiebreak - could be exactly what she needed to find herself again and go on to win the title. In the semi-finals she will face Jessica Pegula after she came from a set down to beat Emma Navarro. We analyse that nervy match and discuss whether Pegula has it in her to topple Sabalenka. Part three (49:53) - A look ahead to Wednesday's schedule which will see Elena Rybakina become the World No.1 if she beats Zheng Qinwen.Thank you to Steve Furgal's International Tennis Tours Tours4Tennis.com/Podcast, the Premium Hospitality and Experience provider for supporting our US Open coverage.They can organise your dream tennis-watching experience at the biggest tournaments in the world, inducing the WTA Finals held this year at Indian Wells, 8th-15th November.Just go to Tours4Tennis.com/Podcast and use the code DEUCE5 at checkout for 5% off.5% off select WTA Finals packages with code DEUCE5 at tours4tennis.com/podcast.

Willkommen zur neuen Ausgabe von Chip & Charge – dieses Mal vom fünften Tag der US Open 2026. Die US Open haben ihren Rhythmus ob der Unterbrechungen der letzten Tage noch nicht gefunden. Doch es gab immer wieder unterhaltsame Matches und Momente plus die ein oder andere Überraschung. Bei den Damen sind alle Titelfavoritinnen weiterhin auf dem Weg in Woche 2. Sowohl Aryna Sabalenka als auch Jessica Pegula und Iga Swiatek konnten in der zweiten Runde sichere Siege feiern.

Jessica Pegula vs Leylah Fernandez — full preview, head-to-head breakdown and prediction for their THIRD ROUND clash at the 2026 US Open at Flushing Meadows, New York. TWO FORMER US OPEN FINALISTS, one third-round exit.Jessica Pegula has been ruthless in New York. The third seed and World No. 3 — runner-up here in 2024 — needed just 56 MINUTES to dismiss Sofia Kenin 6-3, 6-1 in an all-American second round, and she arrives in the form of her life: titles in Dubai and Charleston this season, a run to the DC Open final in Washington, and the Cincinnati final where she lost to Coco Gauff. She is in the smoother half of the draw with a projected semifinal against Aryna Sabalenka.Leylah Fernandez still owns one of the great US Open stories. The Canadian reached the final here in 2021 as a teenager, and her 2026 has been a grind — but she showed in Toronto what she can still do, obliterating World No. 5 and reigning French Open champion Mirra Andreeva 6-1, 6-4 for her first top-10 win in over a year. In New York she has been clean: past Zhang in round one, then a 6-4, 6-1 dismissal of Thailand's Mananchaya Sawangkaew to reach the third round for a third time.The head-to-head favours the American: Pegula leads 3-1, with all four meetings on North American outdoor hard courts, and she won the most recent one comfortably — 6-2, 6-2 in the Miami third round in March 2026. Fernandez needs the version of herself that turns up when the New York lights come on.

Carlos Alcaraz volta depois de quatro meses parado (lesão no pulso) para defender o título que ganhou no ano passado.

Fritz, Shelton, FAA, Medvedev... quem aproveita o buraco?No feminino, Aryna Sabalenka tenta o tricampeonato consecutivo em Nova York (algo que só Serena fez na era moderna). Rybakina, Pegula, Gauff, Andreeva e Swiatek estão todas no caminho. Vem campeã inédita ou ela segura o recorde?E o Brasil? João Fonseca está fora por lesão no abdômen (decisão difícil, o US Open é especial pra ele). Nenhum brasileiro na chave principal de simples - primeira vez desde 2018.

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

Send us Fan MailY'all, the North American hard-court swing has been an absolute rollercoaster and we are buckled in for every single twist, turn, and unhinged racket toss. Alex Eala had her full main character moment in DC — Ialla-mania is officially a documented phenomenon — taking down three top seeds (Pegula! Svitolina! Osaka!) for her first-ever WTA title and becoming the first player from the Philippines to do it. Tickets to her matches were selling out in 30 minutes. We are obsessed, and we are not sorry.Meanwhile Iga finally snapped her title drought in Toronto looking scary-composed, and Sabalenka? Girl is spiraling. Racket tantrums, a missing dampener that conveniently bought her extra time, and a shocking early exit in Cincinnati — 2026 has gone from Sunshine Double glory to full meltdown era. We're unpacking all of it, no judgment (okay, a little judgment).And then there's Coco, who is serving both immaculate tennis AND main character chaos — her "I'm in love with the Coco" on-court moment absolutely sent the internet into a tailspin, especially with the timing landing days after Kyrgios's cocaine suspension news broke. Iconic. Unplanned. Devastating for him, delightful for us.Just when you thought we'd buried the lede — Serena's BACK, teaming up with Carlos Alcaraz for mixed doubles at the Open (Wilcaraz? Carena? We need a team name, stat), while Venus is out here playing singles at 46 like the concept of time simply does not apply to her. We're also getting into the wildcard chaos, the tightening WTA Finals points race, injury updates on some of our faves, and — because we're contractually obligated — five whole minutes on the men (Alcaraz's comeback, an all-American Cincinnati final, and yes, more Kyrgios hypocrisy to unpack).Grab your iced matcha, get comfy, and let's get into it — for the girls, the gays, and the theys who know a good scandal (and a good backhand) when they see one.

In "Serving Aces" Alexandra Stevenson and co-host Hugues Laverdiere discuss the huge win of Alexandra Eala in Washington D.C.  Eala beat Pegula in three sets and in the third, a bagel, 6-0.  Ougi visited Montreal and watch player practices.  Venus and Serena get a wild card for doubles in Cincinnati and Venus gets the wild card in singles.  There is still a wild card left - and Serena may take it.  Alexandra mentions "Love All" the PBS documentary about the Filipino Redondo family of nine children and their rise in tennis in their home city of San Diego.  Marita Redondo became the First Filipino to play on the WTA Tour.  Her brother Walter was the number one junior - but didn't make it on the pro Tour, instead he is a successful artist in San Diego.

WTA Weekly is back as we break down a landmark week in Washington that could prove to be one of the defining moments of the 2026 WTA season. Alex Eala made history by capturing her maiden WTA title with a stunning comeback victory over Jessica Pegula, securing a place inside the world's Top 20 and further cementing her status as one of the brightest stars in women's tennis. We discuss just how significant this breakthrough is, whether Eala is ready to challenge for the biggest titles, and how far she can realistically go over the coming months. We also assess Jessica Pegula's disappointing defeat. Should Washington be viewed as a missed opportunity, or does the American remain one of the leading contenders heading into the US Open despite falling short in the final? Plus, we look ahead to the Canadian Open in Toronto, preview the biggest storylines, analyse the key draw implications, and highlight the players to watch as the North American hard-court swing continues.

Alex Eala won the DC Open by going through Qinwen Zheng, Leylah Fernandez, Naomi Osaka, Elina Svitolina, and Jessica Pegula, and became the first Filipino player to win a WTA singles title. This one is a solo pod, recorded late after a work day, about what that week actually looked like from the ground.Inside: the TikTok about Eala's Miami run that started This Week in Tennis, the strange gap between a huge fanbase and a thin trophy case, the rain delay that wiped a set and handed her a clean slate on Monday, and Pegula's very generous explanation of why that slow lefty serve is so hard to attack.Then the bigger argument. The Tennis Channel desk sitting out in the open, an hour of Naomi Osaka just hanging out with fans, an ice cream truck a few feet away, and what that says about where the sport feels healthiest right now. Plus Fritz on the safety break, Rafa Jódar on the weekly reset, and the Canada attendance question.Also, Ground Pass is credentialed at the US Open. That happened because of weeks like this one.Links: Ground Pass on Substack - https://groundpass.substack.com/- Ground Pass Shop: https://www.groundpasspodcast.com/shop- Jessica Pegula's final press conference: https://youtu.be/WfBxCkkasok?si=-AaRA6-RZozkgki0 - PTPA article: https://awfulannouncing.com/tennis/ptpa-threatens-defamation-lawsuit-andy-roddick-served.html Chapters00:00 Alex Eala wins the DC Open06:30 The TikTok that started This Week in Tennis09:20 "Who's this girl?" and the fandom question13:10 Head down, no celebrating, until the handshake14:20 Eala on how steep it gets at the top18:20 The rain reset and a brand new match21:40 Pegula explains why the slow lefty serve works28:40 Taylor Fritz on the safety break31:40 Rafa Jódar on resetting after every week33:40 Ground Pass is credentialed at the US Open35:20 Just fix the bathrooms39:40 The Osaka cookout43:00 The PTPA story someone should report44:40 Sinner, Djokovic, and the Canada question

Alexandra Stevenson joins the show to breakdown all the drama at Wmbledon, where we will crown a different women's champion for the 10th straight year. Stevenson recaps Naomi Osaka's impressive win over Aryna Sabalenka, and explains how the Japanese superstar has returned to her top form. The former Wimbledon semifinalist also looks at a pending showdown between Americans Jessica Pegula and Coco Gauff, and dives into where each player has as advantage on the grass. Stevenson shares her thoughts on Karolina Muchova's style of play, Marta Kostyuk's athleticism, and how Linda Noskova has leveled up in 2026. On the men's side, Stevenson shares her thoughts on Novak Djokovic's sustained brilliance at 39 years old. The former pro examines whether Felix Auger-Aliassime can challenge the Serbian legend, and whether Jannik Sinner can reach his top gear at these Wimbledon championships. And Stevenson assesses Taylor Fritz's chances to go all the way at The All England Club or if Alexander Zverev, Flavio Cobolli or British Wild Card Arthur Ferry can keep their Wimbledon dreams alive.

Ben and Tumaini are back together once more, this time at Wimbledon, where there's lots of stories in both draws, including Serena Williams' return to singles. We start, though, with the news of 2023 Wimbledon champion Marketa Vondrousova getting a four-year ban for refusing a drug test late last year. What was she thinking? Why was this ITIA decision inevitable? We then jump into the draws, starting with the women where Sabalenka is the top seed, Pegula is Ben's pick, and Serena has taken up lots of room in the Wimagination this year. We then switch to the men, and ask the question: even after the shocking French Open collapse, is it still Jannik Sinner vs. the Field?

Jess Pegula has spent her life around elite sports — both as one of the best tennis players in the world and as part of the family behind the Buffalo Bills and Buffalo Sabres. Beyond competing at the highest level, she’s become an influential voice in the future of professional tennis through her role as a player representative for the Women’s Tennis Association, giving her a rare window into both the business and competitive sides of the industry. In this episode of The Deal, Alex Rodriguez and Jason Kelly sit down with Jess to talk about lobbying for change in professional tennis, balancing the interests of players and management, and what she’s learned from growing up around major sports franchises. Jess shares lessons from her parents Terry and Kim Pegula on leadership, team building and adapting to different personalities. She also discusses the unique culture of Buffalo sports and how her experiences in tennis and sports ownership have shaped the way she approaches business and competition.

Catherine, David and Matt are together to discuss the start of the clay court season and a fascinating week of coaching changes on both tours. Part one - Coaching carousel (00:00 - 33:55). With the news that Iga Swiatek has hired Francisco Roig, we talk about whether her training block in Mallorca with Rafael Nadal can help inspire her for the clay court season ahead. Could this be just the boost Swiatek needs? What are some of the potential challenges in this partnership with Roig? Elsewhere, there's a rundown of how Roig ditched Giovanni Mpetshi Perricard who has now hired Greg Rusedski, and Amanda Anisimova's ongoing search for a new coach. Part two - WTA and ATP Tour Results (33:56 - 1:10:50). We cover Jessica Pegula's title run in Charleston which was filled with three set matches, Matt makes an unsolicited Pegula prediction, and there's a note on the importance of Charleston offering equal prize money and the incredible story of finalist Yulia Starodubtseva. On the men's side, Tommy Paul won his first clay court title in Houston and Rafael Jodar made everyone pay attention to his talent by winning the title in Marrakech. Plus, David gets to talk about two of his favourite things - the Drop Shot Dragon and playing football with Diego Maradona - thanks to Marco Trungelliti and Roman Andres Burruchaga both having career best weeks.
