Podcast appearances and mentions of Stefanos Tsitsipas

Calvin Betton dials in from Italy to join George Bellshaw and James Gray of the i newspaper and inews.co.uk to talk all things tennis, including: Will Novak Djokovic ever age? Is he already the greatest 35-year-old in the history of sport? Will he surpass Roger Federer's record of six ATP Finals titles? Do we read much into Rafael Nadal's defeats to Felix Auger-Aliassime and Taylor Fritz? Could he still win the Australian Open next year? Is Casper Ruud sneakily the most consistent player on tour? Or is he just 'a Poundland Djokovic'? Can we possibly agree with Stefanos Tsitsipas on Andrey Rublev's 'very few tools'?

Die Halbfinalisten der ATP Finals stehen fest und es sind nicht unbedingt die Namen, die man erwartet hätte. Nachdem am Tag zuvor Taylor Fritz mit einem Sieg gegen Felix Auger-Aliassime ins Halbfinale eingezogen war, zog am Freitag Andrey Rublev gegen Stefanos Tsitsipas nach. Tsitsipas lässt sich ablenken Tsitsipas war besser ins Match gekommen, hatte den ersten Satz gewonnen und doch ging die Partie an Rublev. Der bot gerade zum Ende hin beeindruckendes Offensivtennis. Mit seiner Vorhand schlug Rublev einen Winner nach dem anderen. Tsitsipas verlor sich im Match, spielte irgendwann nicht mehr genauso aggressiv wie noch genau zu Anfang.

Die ersten zwei Spieltage der ATP Finals liegen hinter uns. Mittlerweile stehen die ersten Halbfinalisten fest und auch ein besonders prominenter Spieler hat sich (mal wieder) früh verabschiedet. Ruud qualifiziert sich fürs Halbfinale Casper Ruud war dabei der erste Spieler, der sich für die Vorschlussrunde qualifizieren konnte. Durch seinen Sieg im Tiebreak des 3. Satzes sicherte sich Ruud den vorzeitigen Halbfinaleinzug. In einem engen Match tat Ruud mal wieder das am besten, was ihn schon die ganze Saison ausgezeichnet hat: Immer dann da zu sein, wenn wirklich wichtige Matches anstehen.

RAFAEL NADAL ON ANOHER SUCCESSFUL YEAR - ‘Overall it has been an amazing year, achieving important tournaments, being in a privileged position of the ranking, I have been a father a few weeks ago, so overall an amazing year, but at the same time it has been a tough year with a lot of issues with the body, but overall, I take it'.NOVAK DJOKOVIC ON PLAYING THE NITTO ATP FINALS AS A LOWER SEED - 'This is going to be the first time that I'm going to play the number one or number two seeds in the Tour finals for the first time after many years and I don't feel like I'm as young as the other guys as it's been a while since the first participation in the finals, but I'm motivated and looking forward to the challenge and right from the blocks I need to be focussed like I'm playing the final'.STEFANOS TSITSIPAS ON HIS MENTALITY - ‘I'm never satisfied by doing the same thing over and over again, I'm always trying to find new creative ways to perform a certain task and play in any conditions. I just need to stay as alive as possible, to stay in that moment, to slow time down. If I'm able to slow time down, then I'm able to see and predict and execute and I guess that's what adrenaline does to you, it makes things so fast without thinking sometimes'.CASPER RUUD ON EXCEEDING HIS EXPECTATIONS - 'This year the goal was to reach a quarter-final of a Grand Slam because I'd never done that before and then Australia came and I rolled my ankle the day before the tournament, so that hurt obviously, so when Paris came around I was looking to seek some revenge and try to seize the opportunity and I was able to do so and the final there made me realise I can make it far on the Grand Slam stages and I don't think I would have made the final of the US Open if I hadn't done it in Paris'.TAYLOR FRITZ ON HIS NITTO ATP FINALS DEBUT - ‘Being American I didn't really have anywhere to go after my early exit in Paris, so I went on a nice little three day vacation, more like a spa to get my body really good and then I've been here since Monday just getting ready'.DANIIL MEDVEDEV ON REACHING WORLD NUMBER 1 IN 2022 - 'If you want to finish year-end number one you have to play good from the start to the end and now the goal is to make a better whole year. I have the possibility to earn a lot of points in the biggest tournaments in the world and I didn't do that this year and that's what I'm going to try to do next year'.NEAL SKUPSKI ON MAKING HIS DEBUT IN THE DOUBLES ALONGSIDE WESLEY KOOLHOF - ‘Over the years I've watched it on the tv and always wanted to play. I grew up watching the Bryan brothers play here and it was amazing to watch them, but Wes has won it before, so I'm going to pick his brain as much as I can to see what he did a couple of years ago, but yeah, I'm looking forward to it'.PLUS LLEYTON HEWITT AND DANIIL MEDVEDEV LOOK BACK ON WINNING THE NITTO ATP FINALS AND HOLGER RUNE TALKS US THROUGH WHAT HE TRAVELS WITH - FEATURES COURTESY OF ATP UNCOVERED- Podcast presented by Seb Lauzier- Interviews by Seb Lauzier, Richard Connelly, Jill Craybas- Doubles preview by Barry Cowan- Lleyton Hewitt, Daniil Medvedev, Stefanos Tsitsipas and Holger Rune features by ATP Uncovered

Willkommen zur neuen Ausgabe von Chip & Charge dieses Mal mit den letzten Entscheidungen auf der WTA Tour vor dem Jahresendturnier und den neuesten Resultaten bei den Herren. Außerdem ist Simona Halep vorläufig suspendiert worden nach einer positiven Dopingprobe. Pegula siegt in Guadalajara Beim WTA-Turnier in Guadalajara fielen in der letzten Woche noch einige Entscheidungen. Zwar hatten sich unter anderem Iga Swiatek und Ons Jabeur schon für das Jahresendturnier in Fort Worth qualifiziert. Doch beim letzten 1000er Turnier in Guadalajara wurde noch eine Handvoll weiterer Spielerinnen für das Feld in Fort Worth gesucht. Nach einer mal wieder turbulenten Woche, bei dem das letzte Ticket im direkten Duell zwischen Maria Sakkari und Veronika Kudermetova vergeben wurde, haben sich folgende Spielerinnen für die WTA-Finals qualifiziert: Iga Swiatek, Ons Jabeur, Jessica Pegula, Coco Gauff, Caroline Garcia, Aryna Sabalenka, Daria Kasatkina und Maria Sakkari. Sakkari und Pegula konnten auch beim Turnier in Guadalajara überzeugen. Sie erreichten genau wie Victoria Azarenka und Maria Bouzkova das Halbfinale. Für Azarenka also mal wieder ein versöhnlicher Saisonabschluss, während Bouzkova zum zweiten Mal in ihrer Karriere ein solch großes Halbfinale erreichte. Musetti, Rune und Auger-Aliassime sorgen für einen "Aufstand der Jungen" Bei den Herren standen letzten Woche drei Turniere in Europa an. Zwei Mal wurde in der Halle gespielt und in Neapel unter der Herbstsonne Süditaliens. Dort kam es auch zu einem rein italienischen Finale zwischen Matteo Berrettini und Lorenzo Musetti. Beim traditionsreichen Turnier in Stockholm kam es zum Endspiel zwischen Stefanos Tsitsipas und Holger Rune. Der junge Däne konnte nach einer schwächeren Phase im Sommer abermals aufhorchen lassen und gewann im Alter von 19 Jahren den zweiten ATP-Titel seiner Karriere. In Antwerpen konnte Felix Auger Aliassime seine Erfolgsserie bei Hallenturnieren fortsetzten. Er gewann den zweiten Hallentitel in zwei Wochen. In den News der Woche sprechen Andreas und Philipp über die vorläufige Suspendierung von Simona Halep, die bei den US Open positiv auf Roxadustat getestet worden ist.

Willkommen zur neuen Ausgabe von Chip & Charge - heute mit einem kleinen Powerranking auf WTA- und ATP-Ebene mit Stefan Schnürle von Sport1. Djokovic und Swiatek die beiden Besten derzeit Zugegeben, die Headline für den neuen Podcast ist ein bisschen provokant. Novak Djokovic ist die Nummer 7 der Weltrangliste derzeit und Iga Swiatek hat erst vor Wochenfrist gegen Barbora Krejcikova ein hochklassiges Finale verloren. Und trotzdem sind die beiden momentan die Leuchttürme dieser Sportart. Djokovic, wenn er denn spielen darf und Swiatek ist seit dem Abgang von Ash Barty die unangefochtene Nummer 1 bei den Frauen. In der neuen Ausgabe von Chip & Charge schaut Andreas zusammen mit Stefan Schnürle von Sport1 auf die beiden Touren. Stefan moderiert den Tennis-Podcast Cross Court gemeinsam mit Dennis Heinemann. Im ersten Teil geht es um die WTA. In dieser Woche sind die Spielerinnen in Guadalajara zu Gast. Am Ort, der letztes Jahr die so stimmungsvollen WTA Finals beheimatet hatte. Iga Swiatek wird bei diesem Turnier nicht dabei sein. Sie ist in der Vorbereitung auf die WTA Finals. Wer kann ihr gefährlich werden? Welche Namen bräuchte es momentan auf der Frauentour, um die gut vermarkten zu können? Wer kann Djokovic gefährlich werden? Im zweiten Teil sprechen Andreas und Stefan über die ATP Tour. Novak Djokovic hat durch zwei Turniersiege, darunter einem sehr eindrucksvollen in Astana, gezeigt, dass er das Maß aller Dinge sein kann, wenn er fit ist und spielen kann. Seine Konkurrenz ist momentan auch nicht zu 100% konstant. Carlos Alcaraz muss sich erst an die Nummer 1 gewöhnen, Daniil Medvedev scheint sein Mojo verloren gegangen zu sein und Spieler wie Stefanos Tsitsipas und Felix Auger-Aliassime scheint es an Konstanz zu fehlen. Rafael Nadal wird dieses Jahr wahrscheinlich nicht mehr spielen.   Du möchtest deinen Podcast auch kostenlos hosten und damit Geld verdienen?

George Bellshaw and Calvin Betton join James Gray to talk about the biggest issues in tennis this week: Novak Djokovic wins his 90th ATP title in Astana, beating a strong field and thrashing Stefanos Tsitsipas in the final. The former world No 1 is now guaranteed a place at the ATP World Tour finals and has lost just two tour matches since May - is this season he is putting together being underrated? Daniil Medvedev was putting together a fine match against Djokovic before pulling an adductor muscle. What next for him? Is Barbora Krejcikova good for women's tennis? She is certainly good at it after becoming just the second player in senior tennis to beat Iga Swiatek in a final. Both women saved match points before Krejcikova triumphed in three sets. Emma Raducanu has ended her WTA season with a wrist injury but says she will play Billie Jean King Cup. What should we hope for next season? And will the seven-figure investment in British tennis secure her legacy? Where will Taylor Fritz end next year after beating Frances Tiafoe to the title in Tokyo? Fritz is the only player along with Djokovic to win a 250, 500 and 1000 event in 2022 and is up to No 8 in the world. There has been some movement on the Nick Kyrgios court case in Australia - James explains what but you should also read this explainer with one of Australia's top lawyers: https://inews.co.uk/sport/tennis/the-next-emma-raducanu-british-tennis-grand-slam-champion-1891939 Learn more about your ad choices.

Frances Tiafoe and Felix Auger-Aliassime picked up pivotal wins to secure the title for Team World for the first time in five attempts! The match everyone was anticipating was the Friday night doubles with Roger Federer and Rafael Nadal taking on Tiafoe and Jack Sock. The Americans got the win for Team World and Tiafoe was subjected to racist abuse on social media afterwards which was completely out of line! On the Sunday, Auger-Aliassime dispatched the Novak Djokovic in straight sets to put Team World in a winning position and just one match victory away from winning the Laver Cup for the first time. Enter man of the moment, Big Foe who lost the first set to Stefanos Tsitsipas 6-1 but rallied back in now typical fashion, taking the second-set tiebreak and closed out the decider to secure the title and his second win over the Greek in a row (third overall). "Greek Yoghurt" controversy… people were losing it on social media and criticising Team World's behaviour during the Tiafoe-Tsitsipas match. Mic's picked up Tiafoe, surrounded by Americans on the bench, saying he wants “that Greek yoghurt”. Other bits… Davis Cup – Ymer brothers picked some good wins for Sweden – Mikael beat Italy's Jannik Sinner and Diego Schwartzman of Argentina. Elias picked up an impressive win over Argentine Sebastian Baez. FAA also beat Spain's Carlos Alcaraz and Serbia's Miomir Kecmanovic to secure Canada's place in the Finals. Gabriel Diallo (confident his Dad is from Senegal or Guinea TBC), a 20-year-old Kentucky Wildcats senior, also made his debut for the Canadians.

Willkommen zur neuen Ausgabe von Chip & Charge dieses Mal mit dem Laver Cup und den Resultaten aus der WTA und von der ATP. Natürlich war das Hauptevent beim Laver Cup das letzte Match von Roger Federer. Für Federer ging die Karriere am Freitag mit einem Doppel an der Seite von Rafael Nadal zu Ende. Zusammen verloren die Beiden gegen Frances Tiafoe und Jack Sock. Zu Tränen rührte Federer dann allerdings eher die Zeremonie im Anschluss des Matches. Für Europa war die eine von fünf Niederlagen und so konnte sich Team Welt am Ende durchsetzen. Bei den Herren gab es ansonsten noch 250-er Turniere in San Diego und in Metz. Beim französischen Hallenturnier setzte sich Lorenzo Sonego durch, mit einem Sieg im Endspiel gegen Alexander Bublik. Bublik irritierte dabei das Publikum im zweiten Satz mit einem Kunststückchen zur Unzeit. Ins Halbfinale hatte es Stan Wawrinka geschafft, der vorher in der Woche unter anderem gegen Daniil Medvedev gewonnen hat. Bei den Damen wurde letzte Woche in Tokio und Seoul gespielt. In der südkoreanischen Hauptstadt konnte Ekaterina Alexandrova das Turnier für sich entscheiden. Sie gewann in zwei Sätzen gegen Jelena Ostapenko. Im zweiten Satz wirkte Ostapenko dabei etwas angeschlagen. Sie hatte zuvor in der Woche einige lange Matches bestritten. Ins Halbfinale hatten es Tatjana Maria und Emma Raducanu geschafft. Die US Open Siegerin von 2021 konnte dabei durchaus mit gefälligem Tennis überzeugen. In Tokio setzte Ludmilla Samsnova ihren Erfolgslauf fort. Sie siegte dabei im Endspiel gegen Zheng Qinwen. Beide Spielerinnen versprechen noch einiges für die Zukunft. Das gilt natürlich eigentlich immer noch für Naomi Osaka. Sie musste jedoch in ihrem zweiten Match in dierer Woche aufgeben. Ins Halbfinale schafften es hingegen Veronika Kudermetova und Zhang Shuai. Letztere hatte dabei in einem spektakulären Match in der zweiten Runde das bessere Resultat für sich gegen Caroline Garcia.

We may have had the Serena celebration, but we haven't had her final match. Not yet. At the end of an extraordinary evening - which saw Serena honoured on court before, during and after her victory over Danka Kovinic - David, Catherine and Matt try to sum it all up. Why was it better to stage Serena's ceremony tonight rather than after a loss? How much better did her game look than in Cincinnati? And can she now go on a run? Elsewhere, it was a day of upsets with Simona Halep, Daria Kasatkina, Stefanos Tsitsipas and Taylor Fritz all beaten. We talk about those shocks, Andy Murray's first straight sets win at a slam since 2017, why Ons Jabeur is under the radar here, whether we found Dominic Thiem's loss to Pablo Carreno Busta worrying or encouraging, and why Bianca Andreescu needs to do some grovelling to Nike.

The exits of Stefanos Tsitsipas, Taylor Fritz, and Simona Halep, among others, signal that many players have a genuine chance to win this tournament. Serena Williams looked very comfortable tonight and she gets at least one more singles match. Thiem isn't quite ready to come out of the oven yet but he can get there. It's Day 1 in New York and major tournament tennis is back! Kyrgios beat Kokkinakis 6-3, 6-4, 7-6. I don't think I said that on the air. No Drama Nick! I didn't even think about him much today! Nick Kyrgios, TCB… Thanks for listening.

Willkommen zur neuen Ausgabe von Chip & Charge der ersten Ausgabe von den US Open 2022. Der erste Tag war zeitgleich auch der erste Teil der großen Serena Williams Show und bot darüber hinaus auch noch die ein oder andere Überraschung. Doch Andreas und Philipp beginnen natürlich mit Serena Williams und deren doch nicht letztem Match. Denn Williams konnte sich ziemlich souverän gegen Danka Kovinic durchsetzen. Das war zwar keine Leistung wie in der Blüte ihres Schaffens, doch Williams zeigte sich besser als in den letzten Wochen. Für sie geht es nun in der zweiten Runde gegen Anett Kontaveit. Die an Position 2 gesetzte Kontaveit gewann souverän gegen Jacqueline Christian. Die Überraschung des Tages bei den Damen war die Niederlage von Simona Halep gegen Daria Snigur. Halep tat sich sehr schwer mit dem flachen Spiel von Snigur und musste sich der jungen Ukrainerin in drei Sätzen beugen. Auch für Daria Kasatkina kam das Aus schon in der ersten Runde. Zwei faustdicke Überraschungen gab es bei den Herren. Denn sowohl Stefanos Tsitsipas als auch Taylor Fritz verloren schon zum Auftakt. Tsitsipas lag in seinem Match sogar schon mit 0:6 0:5 gegen Daniel Ehai Galan hinten. Zwar erarbeitete er sich noch mal einen Vorsprung im 4. Satz, doch letztlich verlor der hochgehandelte Tsitsipas mit 5:7 im vierten Durchgang. Die Niederlage von Taylor Fritz kam vielleicht sogar noch etwas überraschender. Denn Fritz verlor gegen seinen auf ATP-Ebene weitestgehend unerfahrenen Landsmann Brandon Holt. Der ist zwar ein erfolgreicher College Spieler und der Sohn von Tracy Austin, jedoch eigentlich nicht erfahren genug, um einen Spieler vom Kaliber Fritz bei den US Open zu schlagen. Souverän in die zweite Runde ist Daniil Medvedev eingezogen. Für Dominic Thiem kam hingegen das Aus in der 1. Runde gegen Pablo Carreno Busta. Trotzdem stehen die Zeichen wohl auf Besserung für den US Open Sieger von 2020. Du möchtest deinen Podcast auch kostenlos hosten und damit Geld verdienen?

The 2022 US Open men's singles draw is out, with Daniil Medvedev, Rafael Nadal, Carlos Alcaraz and Stefanos Tsitsipas making up the top-seeds. Gill Gross gives his quarter-by-quarter dark horses, upset alerts, popcorn matchups and predictions. With the absence of Novak Djokovic in the field, questions arising amongst the top men and the depth of hardcourt talent on the ATP tour, this could be one of the most wide open US Opens we have seen. --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/monday-match-analysis/support

Willkommen zur neuen Ausgabe von Chip & Charge dieses Mal mit der Auslosungsvorschau für die US Open 2022. Nach all den verschiedenen Siegerinnen und Siegerin, die wir in den letzten Wochen auf der Tour erlebt haben, ist das 4. Grand Slam Turnier durchaus als offen zu betrachten. Medvedev früh gegen Kyrgios? Das Herrenfeld hat als Topgesetzten jedoch einen Altbekannten. Denn Daniil Medvedev hat das Turnier im letzten Jahr gewonnen und zwei Jahre zuvor das Finale erreicht. Er könnte schon recht früh auf Nick Kyrgios oder Roberto Bautista-Agut treffen. Auch im oberen Viertel befindet sich Felix Auger-Aliassime und der Montreal-Sieger Pablo Carreno-Busta. Auch zur oberen Hälfte gehören Stefanos Tsitsipas, Matteo Berrettini und Taylor Fritz. Die unter Hälfte wird angeführt von Rafael Nadal, hinter dessen Form jedoch auch dass ein oder andere Fragezeichen steht. Kann er die fehlende Matchpraxis mit Erfahrung wettmachen? Zu den anderen Topgesetzten in seiner Hälfte der Auslosung gehören unter anderem Carlos Alcaraz, Marin Cilic und Cameron Norrie. Wie gut drauf ist Iga Swiatek? Bei den Damen ist die Sache wie gewohnt noch ein bisschen offener. Hier führt die beste Spielerin des Jahres das Tableau an. Doch wird Iga Swiatek einen Weg durch die Auslosung finden? Sie könnte schon recht früh auf Amanda Anisimova oder Jelena Ostapenko treffen. Auch in der oberen Hälfte sind die Siegerin aus dem letzten Jahr, Emma Raducanu, die zweifache Gewinnerin Naomi Osaka und die Wimbledon-Siegerin Naomi Osaka. Der Abschied von Serena Williams Weit unten im vierten Viertel ist Serena Williams zu finden. Sie könnte schon sehr früh auf die an 2 gesetzte Anett Kontaveit treffen. Doch davor muss Williams erstmal gegen Danka Kovinic gewinnen. Auch Simona Halep ist einer der großen Namen in der unteren Hälfte. Sie könnte im Achtelfinale gegen einen anderen prominenten Namen spielen, Coco Gauff. Ebenso zu finden sind hier zwei der Formspielerinnen der letzten Wochen, Beatriz Haddad Maia und Carolina Garcia.

We could be in for a wild US Open. That's our big takeaway following Cincinnati where Borna Coric and Caroline Garcia won the titles. In our final show before leaving for New York we talk about Coric's sudden return to form, a mysterious but encouraging week for Stefanos Tsitsipas, who the US Open favourite is between Rafael Nadal and Daniil Medvedev, whether Caroline Garcia is in The Mix after her incredible run of form continued, and where the likes of Emma Raducanu, Madison Keys, Jessica Pegula and Petra Kvitova fit in to conversations about US Open contenders.FRIENDS OF THE TENNIS PODCAST: Friends help us to produce the show year-round, and receive exclusive access to bonus podcasts throughout the year, including Tennis Re-Lived, listener questions, and Grand Slam review shows.

Borna Coric won his first Masters 1000 Title from outside the world top-150, making Stefanos Tsitsipas his final victim in the final of the 2022 Western & Southern Open in Cincinnati. Coric beat five top-20 opponents and has now fully completed his comeback from last year's shoulder surgery. We'll discuss how he beat Tsitsipas and what to make of his career at this very moment. But first, the much anticipated and final edition of the US Open Power Rankings, where we'll seek a clearer picture of the top contenders in men's singles at the final major of the season. --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/monday-match-analysis/support

Borna "Born Again" Coric and "Sweet" Caroline Garcia are your singles winners for Cincinnati 2022. I apologize for the obligatory puns and will do better next time. Borna Coric absolutely punished the yellow spheroid this week. Stefanos Tsitsipas has some issues he needs to work out. Caroline Garcia exhibited a great deal of poise. Petra Kvitova didn't leave with a trophy but still had a great week. Plus - I read US Open advertisements! Also the schedule for qualifying week. THANKS for listening. Time for a few days off.

Rain, rain, go away! Come again another day (actually please don't). Showers and thunderstorms impacted the Western & Southern Open on Saturday but in the end, the tournament completed the entire order of play. Awesome! Petra Kvitova came back to break down Madison Keys' game 6-7, 6-4, 6-3 in a high-stakes, high-quality, and rain-uninterrupted match. Caroline Garcia beat Aryna Sabalenka and Mother Nature 6-2, 4-6, 6-1. Stefanos Tsitsipas saluted Daniil Medvedev 7-6, 3-6, 6-3. The (Borna) Coric Train rolled right past Cameron Norrie 6-3, 6-4.  Ram/Salisbury and Puetz/Venus advance to the finals. Ostapenko and Kichenok are the women's doubles champions. Will there be tennis on Sunday? Get the squeegees ready.
