On this week's episode of Match Point Canada, Ben is joined by Tennis Channel host Steve Weissman to break down a thrilling 2025 Wimbledon Championships! We dive into: Jannik Sinner's impressive win over Carlos Alcaraz in the men's final, and the rise of their new rivalry and what it means for tennis. Iga Swiatek's historic sixth Grand Slam title and grass court breakthrough, plus surprising runs from veterans, a big result from Taylor Fritz, and which Canadians impressed the most Learn more about your ad choices.

Shout out to Iga Swiatek, double-bagelling Amanda Anisimova in the ladies' final in 57mins. The Pole is now 6-0 in Grand Slam finals which is quite bossy. Also, shout out to the men's champion Jannik Sinner who came back from a set down to see off defending champ Carlos Alcaraz in four – these two are playing a different sport. Lucy was spot on with her men's take (she knows ball), while Eugene had Anisimova as his second pick. From a BSG perspective, Ben Shelton reaching the quarter-finals, where he lost to the eventual champ was very good going – went one round better than last year. The American is up to a career high world No 9 in the rankings. Hailey Baptiste making a run to the third round on her singles main-draw debut was also a standout. Her second-round match against lucky loser Victoria Mboko was a nice moment. Naomi Osaka looked good on the grass and had opportunities against Anastasia Pavlyuchenkova in round three. Glad to see the four-time major winner already hitting on the grounds at Flushing Meadows. Gabriel Diallo gave a good account of himself on his debut, very nearly taking out eventual semi-finalist Taylor Fritz in five sets in the second round. Big shout out to 2024 ladies' doubles champions Taylor Townsend and Katerina Siniakova who bowed out in the semi-finals this year. Congrats to Siniakova for securing the mixed doubles crown though with Sem Verbeek. We absolutely loved celebrating the 50th anniversary of Arthur Ashe winning Wimbledon with the oral histories before each episode during week 1! The Wimbledon Watchalong at PlayBox, BoxPark was such a blast and year 3 at the Championships overall was a great experience.

Good Evening. Welcome to Nakashima Nightly. It is July 11th, and I'm Dan Burkett - your lead Nakashima Correspondent.Before we begin, I want to take a moment to acknowledge Taylor Fritz in this week's hashtag-Fritz-Friday. Playing in his first ever Wimbledon semifinal, Fritz was defeated by Carlos Alcaraz in four sets. Fritz played a determined match, and with two set points in the fourth set tiebreaker, it was a heartbreaking loss for the American. Still, we congratulate Taylor Fritz on a great grass court season, and look forward to seeing what he can do in the North American hard court swing.American tennis pro Brandon Nakashima took a well-earned break from the professional circuit yesterday, opting for a day filled with casual sports and quality time with his brother. After spending the earlier part of the day on the golf course, Nakashima was spotted later hitting tennis balls with his brother in what appeared to be a relaxed and enjoyable session on the courts.While there are no major updates to report in terms of tournaments or rankings for Nakashima at the moment, the glimpse into his off-court life is a reminder of the balance athletes strive to maintain during the long, demanding tennis season. With the ATP Tour's summer hardcourt swing approaching, days like these offer a chance to recharge both physically and mentally.Known for his calm demeanor and powerful baseline play, Nakashima has steadily carved out a name for himself on tour. His 2022 ATP title in San Diego and deep runs in several other tournaments have shown that he possesses both the talent and the temperament to compete with the best. But like any top-tier athlete, downtime is essential—and yesterday's mix of golf and tennis seems to be part of that personal formula.While fans may be eager for news of his next big match or training milestone, it's moments like these that provide a deeper look at the human side of high-performance sport. Whether refining his serve on the practice court or lining up a putt on the green, Nakashima remains a model of focus, discipline, and quiet dedication.For now, supporters will have to wait for his next official appearance. But it's safe to say that Brandon Nakashima is keeping his game—and his spirit—in good shape.Stay tuned for more updates as the tour rolls on.And with that, we conclude our first week here at Nakashima Nightly. Thank you so much for your continued support. Please continue to support our show by liking this episode, commenting below, sharing with a friend, and subscribing to our channel.

Willkommen zur neuen Ausgabe von Chip & Charge - heute mit der Ausgabe zu den Halbfinals der Herren. Philipp ist heute wieder verhindert, aber Andreas hat sich Unterstützung gesucht und sie in Matthias Cammann vom NDR gefunden. Gemeinsam sprechen die beiden über die Nachrichten des Tages. Zuallererst sprechen sie die Pressekonferenz von Novak Djokovic an, der kurz nach seiner deftigen Niederlage gegen Jannik Sinner in den Pressekonferenzraum gekommen war. Aber er verkündete, wie von manchen erwartet, nicht seinen Rücktritt, sondern sah seine Chancenlosigkeit an. Gegen Jannik Sinner schien er noch gehandicapt von der im Viertelfinale erlittenen Verletzung gegen Flavio Cobolli zu sein. Er ...

Join Joel and Chris as they break down why Sabalenka keeps stumbling at the business end of Grand Slams and unpack the remarkable story of Anisimova's comeback after her mental health sabbatical.

The duo dig into what's clicking in Swiatek's grass-court game, whether she's finally shed the “clay-court specialist” label, and how her experience in major finals could play a role against Anisimova, who's about to contest her first.

Chris Oddo from Tennis Now on what he anticipates in Jannik Sinner-Novak Djokovic, if Taylor Fritz can beat Carlos Alcaraz, and the heat at Wimbledon.
Tonight, we're getting to know Brandon NakashimaMeet Brandon Nakashima: The Rising Star of American TennisIf you follow tennis or have ever watched the U.S. Open or Wimbledon, you've probably heard about names like Novak Djokovic, Rafael Nadal, or Coco Gauff. But there's another name you should know—Brandon Nakashima, one of the top young American men's tennis players on the ATP Tour.Brandon might not be a household name just yet, but he's been working his way up through the rankings with quiet confidence, strong discipline, and a game built on consistency and control. He's not flashy like some players, but that's part of what makes him so good—he lets his tennis speak for itself.Early Life and BackgroundBrandon Nakashima was born on August 3, 2001, in San Diego, California. He started playing tennis at the age of 3 with his grandfather and quickly fell in love with the sport. By the time he was in his early teens, Brandon was one of the top junior players in the country.He's of Japanese and Vietnamese heritage, and family is a big part of his life. His calm personality on court is often linked to the way he was raised—focused, respectful, and humble.Instead of turning professional right away, Brandon made a smart move: he played college tennis. In 2019, he spent one season at the University of Virginia, one of the best college tennis programs in the country. Even though he was only 17, he dominated in college matches. After just one season, he decided he was ready to go pro.Turning Pro and Climbing the RankingsBrandon turned professional in 2019 and didn't waste any time making an impact. In his first full year on tour, he reached an ATP final and started playing in Grand Slam tournaments. By 2022, he was ranked inside the Top 50 in the world, which is a big deal for a player in his early 20s.That same year, he made it to the fourth round of the U.S. Open, one of tennis's biggest events. He also won the Next Gen ATP Finals, a tournament that features the best players under 21. Previous winners include top stars like Carlos Alcaraz and Jannik Sinner, so winning that event showed just how high Brandon's ceiling could be.Playing StyleBrandon isn't the loudest or most emotional player on court, but he's one of the most focused. He's known for his steady baseline play, meaning he does really well in long rallies from the back of the court. He hits the ball cleanly, especially with his two-handed backhand, which is one of his best weapons.He doesn't rely on power alone. Instead, Brandon uses smart tactics, great footwork, and a calm mindset to outplay his opponents. His game is built for hard courts, but he's also improving on grass and clay—two very different and challenging surfaces.Recent Results and What's NextIn 2025, Brandon reached the third round of Wimbledon, defeating China's Yunchaokete Bu and fellow American Reilly Opelka before falling to Italy's Lorenzo Sonego. These wins reminded fans that he's still a strong competitor with the potential to go even further.Now ranked in the Top 80 (as of July 2025), Brandon is focusing on the North American hard-court season, including big tournaments like the Citi Open, Cincinnati Masters, and the U.S. Open.Why He MattersAmerican men's tennis has been looking for its next big star since the days of legends like Andre Agassi and Pete Sampras. While players like Taylor Fritz, Frances Tiafoe, and Ben Shelton are getting a lot of attention, Brandon Nakashima is part of that same group. He might be quieter and more low-key than some of his peers, but he's just as talented and just as hungry to succeed.If you're a fan of sports where hard work and mental strength matter just as much as physical ability, Brandon is a great player to follow. He represents a new generation of tennis players who combine skill with sportsmanship—and he's just getting started.

Brett Connors returns to the podcast to dive into all the drama at Wimbledon, where the chase for the titles is on at The All England Club. Connors recaps the unfortunate events that led to Grigor Dimitrov retiring and Jannik Sinner advancing to the quarterfinals, and explains what to expect from the Italian as he prepares to battle rising American star Ben Shelton at less than full health. The host of "Advantage Connors" also examines Novak Djokovic's chances for a 25th major, Carlos Alcaraz's supremacy on the grass, and whether Taylor Fritz is a legit contender to go all the way in London. Connors also discusses how Aryna Sabalenka was able to fend off Laura Siegemund and reach the semifinals, and explains why it finally be the Belarussian's time at Wimbledon. The podcast host and tennis producer dives into Iga Swiatek's newfound game on the grass, Mirra Andreeva's ability to bounce back after Roland Garros, and American Amanda Anisimova's fortitude as she reaches the final four. Hosted by Mitch Michals.
Barstool Hubbs is back on the podcast to recap a wild first round at Wimbledon, where seeds fell left and right in both the men's and women's draws. Hubbs reacts to the shocking upsets that sent Coco Gauff and Jessica Pegula packing, and explains what's wrong with Daniil Medvedev and Alexander Zverev as they crash out as well. The guys dive into Carlos Alcaraz's tricky first round match, Novak Djokovic's path to another major title, and why Taylor Fritz and the other American men remaining can be dangerous going forward. Hubbs also assesses the women's draw, which features Aryna Sabalenka as the favorite in a tricky section. The fellas discuss Amanda Anisimova's potential, Iga Swiatek's improved form, and debate whether Mirra Andreeva or past champions Elena Rybakina and Marketa Vondrousova can find a way to advance deep at The All-England Club. Hosted by Mitch Michals.
Tennis.com and VSIN Gambling Writer Zachary Cohen joins the show for a Wimbledon update, where the seeds continue to fall. Cohen analyzes how Taylor Fritz and Ben Shelton have been able to have success, and he looks at the form of Novak Djokovic, Jannik Sinner and Carlos Alcaraz as they advance in the draw. The writer also weighs in on Joao Fonseca's third round loss, and comments made by Stefanos Tsitsipas' new coach Goran Ivanisevic. Cohen goes in depth on the women's results at Wimbledon as well, reacting to the upset losses suffered by Madison Keys and Naomi Osaka. He also discusses why Iga Swiatek has found her footing on grass, Aryna Sabalenka's chances, and whether past champions Elena Rybakina and Barbora Krejcikova can re-capture some magic at The All England Club. Hosted by Mitch Michals.
Prakash Amritraj, Brett Haber, Lindsay Davenport and Jim Courier break down everything from Day 9 at Wimbledon on the TC Live Podcast. If it happened in London today, we have it covered. Taylor Fritz makes his third Wimbledon quarter. Will this be the first year he makes the semis against a guy he's never beaten? After all the week one upsets, Aryna Sabalenka is now a massive favorite to win the title. She's made both Slam finals this year but is yet to win one. Jannik Sinner was in deep trouble yesterday before Grigor Dimitrov retired. Jim breaks down how much trouble Ben Shelton will cause him. We look back at the dwindling opportunity for the lost generation of men's tennis. We hardly knew you. All that and more on this episode of the TC Live Podcast. Learn more about your ad choices.

Quarterfinal action is underway, with the real Carlos Alcaraz delivering a Wimbledon masterclass on Centre Court to dispatch Great Britain's Cam Norrie. Alcaraz will now face Taylor Fritz, who overcame a third-set stumble to defeat Karen Khachanov and reach his second Grand Slam semifinal in the last 12 months, climbing back to No. 4 in the live rankings. But is he too reliant on his canon of a serve? Meanwhile, electronic line-calling sparked more controversy when an errant ‘Fault!' call disrupted a crucial point, adding to a growing list of technological mishaps this fortnight.On the women's side, Aryna Sabalenka kept her quest for a maiden Wimbledon title alive with a dramatic, last-gasp win over grass-court specialist Laura Siegemund. Amanda Anisimova also booked her place in the semifinals — her first at a Grand Slam since 2019 — with a tense victory over Anastasia Pavlyuchenkova to continue her stellar season. Joel and Chris also look ahead to the second day of quarterfinals and get up to speed on all the fallout from the past 24 hours since Jannik Sinner and Grigor Dimitrov abruptly exited the court.BABOLATBabolat are an official partner of Wimbledon and their Wimbledon collaboration collection and Pure Drive (2025) is available to purchase now from babolat.com SOCIALSFollow us on Twitter, Instagram, TikTok and YouTube, plus email the show tennisweeklypod@gmail.com.MERCHPurchase Tennis Weekly Merch through our Etsy store including limited edition designs by Krippa Design where all proceeds go towards the podcast so we can keep doing what we do!REVIEWS***Please take a moment to rate and review the show on Apple Podcasts, Spotify or wherever you get your pods.

Álex Corretja analiza cómo llegan Alcaraz, Fritz, Sinner y Djokovic a sus respectivos partidos de Wimbledon.
Willkommen zur neuen Ausgabe von Chip & Charge dieses Mal mit dem achten Daily aus Wimbledon. Am Dienstag wurden die ersten Viertelfinals in Wimbledon ausgespielt. Es setzten sich Aryna Sabalenka, Amanda Anisimova, Taylor Fritz und Carlos Alcaraz durch. Sabalenka gewann eine durchaus knappe Partie, in der ihre Gegnerin Laura Siegemund schon mit 4:3 und Break im dritten Satz führe. Doch die letzten drei Spiele gingen an Sabalenka, die damit weiter ihre Konstanz in Grand Slam Turnieren unter Beweis stellte. Zwar gewann Siegemund auch den ersten Satz, bereitete ihrer Gegnerin das ganze Match über Schwierigkeiten, doch auf den allerletzten Metern konnte sich ...

Day 7 of Wimbledon and the quarterfinals are shaping up with Carlos Alcaraz defeating Andrey Rublev to extend his unbeaten run at Wimbledon to 18. He will face another tough test in Cam Norrie who won an epic in possibly the match of the championships against Nicolas Jarry in 5 sets on Court One. Needless to say home hope Cam will have to trade his favourite court one for Centre court to face the two time defending Champion in the quarter-finals of Wimbledon. Also making it through to the quarterfinals stage is Karen Khachanov and Taylor Fritz. Fritz playing just 10 games before Jordan Thompson was forced to retire through injury. Fritz will be hoping to go one better and make the Wimbledon semifinals after bowing out at this stage last year to Lorenzo Musetti. On the women's side, it is still very possible that another American woman might pick up a grand slam title after Amanda Anisimova set up match against Anastasia Pavlyuchenkova who dashed British hopes by defeating Sonay Kartal despite the line calling system going down and going against the more seasoned competitor. World Number 1, Aryna Sabalenka who took out her former doubles partner Elise Mertens in round 4 and will face veteran Laura Siegemund in the quarters. Sabalenka will be hoping to add a Wimbledon title to her collection after missing the championships through injury last year.

On Day 7 of Wimbledon 2025 Catherine, David and Matt were live straight after Amanda Anisimova surged into the quarter-finals. In part 1 we cover the women's results, starting of course with Anisimova's victory over Linda Noskova taking us one step closer to a blond Matt Roberts. We also go into detail on Anastasia Pavyluchenkova's win over Sonay Kartal, the story of her year, and the electronic line calling fail which overshadowed the match. There's also chat about Aryna Sabalenka's high-quality win over Elise Mertens, and the unique challenge that awaits her in the next round when she faces Laura Siegemund and her exploits. In part 2 (40m20s) we react to Carlos Alcaraz's win over an impressive Andrey Rublev, an unfortunate retirement for Jordan Thompson against Taylor Fritz, an impressive dispatching of Kamil Majchrzak by Karen Khachanov, and a five set marathon between Nicolas Jarry and Cameron Norrie, which included some lowkey aggro and was eventually won by Norrie in front of a delighted Court 1 crowd. In part 3 (59m08s) we looked ahead to tomorrow's order of play. What chance do we give De Minaur against Djokovic, Dimitrov against Sinner, and Tauson against Swiatek?

Willkommen zur neuen Ausgabe von Chip & Charge dieses Mal mit dem sechsten Daily aus Wimbledon. Mittlerweile kennen wir die ersten acht Viertelfinalistinnen und Viertelfinalisten. Zwischendrin regnete es zwar in London, doch letztlich konnten alle Matches zu Ende gespielt werden. Bei den Damen erreichte Aryna Sabalenka das Viertelfinale, nach einem Sieg gegen Elise Mertens. Dabei wurde Sabalenka durchaus gefordert. Denn Mertens spielte auf hohem Niveau. Nun geht es für Sabalenka gegen Laura Siegemund, die ihren Erfolgslauf fortsetzen konnte. Sie besiegte die Lucky Loserin Solona Sierra relativ klar in zwei Sätzen. Auch durchsetzen konnte sich Anastasia Pavlyuchenkova. Sie gewann gegen Sonny Kartal in ...

Taylor Fritz was not on the schedule today so Catherine, David and Matt were live at the scheduled time of 9.30pm to bring you all the news from Day 6 at Wimbledon. In Part 1 we cover the women's results, starting with Iga Swiatek's statement win over Danielle Collins, her ebullient interviews, and what jt might all mean for this tournament. Combined with Clara Tauson's victory over Elena Rybakina, it was surely a good day for Swiatek. We also discuss Mirra Andreeva's comfortable victory over Hailey Baptiste, and the sad scenes of Barbora Krejcikova being physically compromised in the latter stages of her defeat to Emma Navarro. In Part 2 (40m19s) we discuss Novak Djokovic beating fellow Serbian Miomir Kecmanovic and whether Alex de Minaur has any chance against him this year. Jannik Sinner has been imperious to the point of it being statistically significant and he saw off Pedro Martinez with no trouble at all. We also cover victories for Lorenzo Sonego, Ben Shelton, Flavio Cobolli and also for Grigor Dimitrov, who finally seems to be stringing some matches together without injury. In part 3 (62m25s) we look ahead to tomorrow's order of play. Can Sonay Kartal and Cameron Norrie continue the British run by beating Anastasia Pavyluchenkova and Nicolas Jarry? Will Carlos Alcaraz be focused on the job in hand? And can Taylor Fritz win in less than five sets? Become a Friend of The Tennis PodcastCheck out our new merch shop!

A blockbuster Friday for British tennis came to a close with Emma Raducanu producing one of her best performances since her US Open title run in 2021, pushing Aryna Sabalenka all the way in two tight sets under the Centre Court lights. Join Kim and Chris as they break down Raducanu's display, what it means now that she'll drop to British No. 3, and whether the match was a good advert for women's night sessions (ahem, Amélie Mauresmo and Roland Garros).It wasn't all doom and gloom for the Brits either, as Cam Norrie and Sonay Kartal continued their strong form to book spots in the fourth round. Meanwhile, Carlos Alcaraz survived a stern test from the powerful Jan-Lennard Struff to avoid another five-set battle, while Taylor Fritz added another four-set win to his tally — and this time was able to actually wrap things up in broad daylight.Ben Shelton needed just over a minute to complete perhaps the quickest overnight return at Wimbledon, sealing victory against Rinky Hijikata in just over 60 seconds. There was disappointment for big names too, with Australian Open champion Madison Keys falling meekly with illness a factor and Naomi Osaka suffering an agonising defeat, missing a golden chance for a deep Slam run. History was made, though, as lucky loser Solana Sierra became the first female lucky loser ever to reach Wimbledon's fourth round.BABOLATBabolat are an official partner of Wimbledon and their Wimbledon collaboration collection is available to purchase now from babolat.com SOCIALSFollow us on Twitter, Instagram, TikTok and YouTube, plus email the show tennisweeklypod@gmail.com.MERCHPurchase Tennis Weekly Merch through our Etsy store including limited edition designs by Krippa Design where all proceeds go towards the podcast so we can keep doing what we do!REVIEWS***Please take a moment to rate and review the show on Apple Podcasts, Spotify or wherever you get your pods.

The European heatwave has forced Eddie to finally give in and buy himself an air conditioning unit, but will it cool his apartment? The heat has been causing issues at Wimbledon, but was Taylor Fritz right to be upset that his first-round match was stopped by the curfew? And weather has been a factor at the FIFA Club World Cup, but Eddie thinks that Manchester City, Inter Milan, and some of the other big sides will be secretly pleased with their early exits. Malik Beasley is the latest NBA player to be caught up in a betting scandal, but was the Detroit Pistons' player fixing games? Or just padding his stats? And did the end of 'The Rehearsal' season 2 live up to the early promise?

In our first live show from Wimbledon in 2025, Catherine, David and Matt are here to dissect the men's and women's singles draws. Part one - Men's draw. We discuss Jack Draper's tough route which could involve facing Alexander Bublik in R3, Novak Djokovic landing in the top half along with Jannik Sinner, the news that Sinner has suddenly split with his fitness trainer and physio, the dream path facing Carlos Alcaraz in the bottom half, a potentially tricky two weeks for Alexander Zverev, and Taylor Fritz's grass court scheduling. Part two - Women's draw (33m03s). It looks like a tough road ahead for top seed Aryna Sabalenka. We cover the names which could stop her from going deep as well as Sabalenka's practice session with Coco Gauff and what that told us about their relationship after the Roland Garros final. There's also a bold Amanda Anisimova prediction, Iga Swiatek coming in under the radar for once, and lots of intriguing round one matches. Part three - Results round up (54m34s). We cover the intriguing Eastbourne final between Alexandra Eala and Maya Joint, discuss Swiatek's run in Bad Homburg in more detail, and look ahead to media day on Saturday.Become a Friend of The Tennis PodcastCheck out our new merch shop!
