The Tennis Tragic #070 / The Crunching Sound / David and Matte leave voicemails for each other and accidentally make a podcast. Tsitsipas defeats Medvedev, which means nothing. David recounts his two weeks as a curling tragic. David and Matte discuss the merits of dentistry. Matte shatters his phone under a car while recording the sounds of his city. Mensik stuns Sinner, Denmark pretends it is a summery Scandinavian country, Atmane loses a match on the umpire's call, B-surnames have a big week, and Tiafoe goes Hard 75 but loses the Pear to Cobolli. David's back persists. A video game is coming. The green man flashes.

Ad inizio settimana Flavio Cobolli l'aveva detto che il pubblico di Acapulco lo stava facendo sentire uno di loro, quindi un po' messicano. Dopo il secondo successo in carriera in un torneo 500 e il best ranking al numero 15, possiamo dire che Flavio si è preso il Messico con la forza del suo tennis e di una testa ritrovata. Un'analisi della sua crescita tecnica e soprattutto mentale che lo ha portato a battere Tiafoe in finale. ANALISI COMPLETA al link in BIO ☝

In this episode, we break down a dramatic week on tour packed with trophies, injuries, and intriguing final previews across both the ATP and WTA.

With the first round of the Australian Open main draw finally complete, Ben and Tumaini got together to discuss some of the biggest moments and stories. We discussed the women first, starting with Naomi Osaka's big fashion moment (and her interview with Ben), the tournament's failure to supply seats to meet the massive crowd demand for Alexandra Eala, the impressions Oleksandra Oliynykova made on court and in the press room, plus the veterans Venus Williams and Karolina Pliskova. On the men's side, we discussed Frances Tiafoe's turnaround, as well as a bit on Taylor Fritz, Novak Djokovic, Michael Zheng, and Italian incontinence.

Andy Roddick joins Producer Mike to answer fan questions in the first-ever Q&Andy segment. This week, Andy dives deep into the mechanics of momentum: Can Elena Rybakina carry her late-season form into a Grand Slam title? Andy also explains why pros skip sunglasses on court and why he'd rather fall off a treadmill than repeat Frances Tiafoe's viral cricket pitch. Want to be featured on the next Q&Andy?

Almost 2 years ago to the day Dan Evans and I chatted via Zoom- I was in New York, he in Stockholm. He was ranked around 35 in the world, getting ready to play the Swedish Open. That summer he won Washington, got to a career high 21, and had dazzled the tennis community with his play against Carlitos Alcaraz at the US Open and then again in China. Since that moment he has faced multiple injuries, incredibly difficult draws, and the mere reality of the pro tennis tour, where week in and week out every player, on any given day, is a threat. But he's also had incredible moments mixed into this challenging stretch including a remarkably fun ride in the Paris Olympics with Andy Murray, an epic win in the longest match in US Open history, and just this past grass court season, wins over Tiafoe and Tommy Paul in consecutive weeks. Dan and I had an earnest chat, and he pulled no punches. By going back in time we hit many of the tour's water cooler topics; the quality of this generation, ball quality, surface speeds and the absolute lack of stylistic variety amongst his peers.

US Open 2025 is in the books, and we're joined by Myles David — Sports Illustrated contributor and host of Tuned Into Tennis Podcast— for a sharp, funny, and deeply informed wrap-up. Yo Aunteas Kerel, Dawon & Jerrell dig into Coco Gauff and Naomi Osaka's momentum, Taylor Townsend's mindset and media moment, and whether the men's hype cycles (Alcaraz, Sinner, Tiafoe, Fils, Felix) match reality. We also talk about Althea Gibson's 75th anniversary and whether the tournament truly met the moment for Black tennis history. Myles shares his journey from Louisiana to tennis journalism, why representation in media rooms matters, and how community changes the way we experience the sport. They also touch on the latest in pop culture, with hot takes on Mariah Carey's VMA performance and Jerrell's adventures at a Bad Bunny concert in Puerto Rico. So, get your cups ready for Minoritea Report!

The second part of our US Open Threads series dives into the fashion highs, lows, and surprises of the 2025 US Openwith Ian Mondul of 40 Love. Anastasia and Ian go through their faves (Musetti, Sabalenka, Venus, Townsend, Sinner/Alcaraz), the biggest misses (Draper's Vuori debut, Tiafoe's tiger stripes, Adidas Y-3 backlash), plus surprises like Paolini's shimmering ASICS dress and doubles teams turning out in matching kits.We wrap with overall takes on the rise of individuality in tennis fashion, why women's kits outshone men's, and the colors that ruled the Open: red and purple.

Andy Roddick is here on Quick Served with a Day 6 recap. Andy and Producer Mike talk about Taylor Townsend's performance beating the No. 5 seed Mirra Andreeva. Andy also talks about Ben Shelton retiring mid-match due to injury. We also cover Tiafoe and Navarro's loss, Alcaraz's form heading into week 2, and more! Stay tuned for tomorrow's Quick Served!

Journée amère pour le tennis américain hier à l'US Open. Ben Shelton et France Tiafoe sont tombés.

Willkommen zur neuen Ausgabe von Chip & Charge dieses Mal mit dem vierten Daily von den US Open 2025. In New York befinden wir uns Mitte der dritten Runde und der erste wirklich große Name ist ausgeschieden. Denn Ben Shelton musste sein Match gegen Adrian Mannarino nach dem vierten Satz aufgeben. Er hatte sich offensichtlich zu Beginn des vierten Durchgangs eine Schulterverletzung zugezogen. Bitter für den Sieger von Toronto. Auch Frances Tiafoe schied am Freitag aus und zwar gegen Jan-Lennard Struff. Der zeigte wie in den vorherigen Runden wieder eine aggressive Leistung und doch überraschte der klare Sieg gegen Tiafoe, ...

Only one place to start, Court 11 that was packed for Taylor Townsend's upset-victory over (25)Jelena Ostapenko. The Latvian took the L badly and resorted to some pretty derogatory insults, accusing Townsend of having “no class” and “no education”. Townsend handled the situation superbly, both on court and in press afterwards. To think all that happened on HBCU Live Day, that was brilliantly acknowledged with a great discussion in the morning on the legacy of Althea Gibson. Leslie Allen, Sloane Stephens, Kamau Murray and Boris Kodjoe were on the panel that was excellently moderated by Monica McNutt. Frances Tiafoe saw off big-serving qualifier Martin Damm in four sets. Big Foe had to stay patient, but took care of business on his side, served great and played smart against the lefty who he spoke highly of in press. Jasmine Paolini, playing her second night match in a row in New York, convincingly beat Iva Jovic in straight sets. The Italian seventh seed confirmed the dress was a night-session fit and spoke about her next opponent Marketa Vondrousova. Ben Shelton beat Pablo Carreno Busta in straights. The American looked very comfortable on Louis Armstrong and managed the match well which is something we put to him in his post-match presser. Listen out for interview snippets from Townsend, Mirra Andreeva, Tiafoe, Paolini and Shelton.

Part one - Day session. We cover Madison Keys' shock defeat to Renata Zarazua and the way she described nerves as “paralysing” her. And that wasn't the only big women's result as Victoria Mboko lost to Barbora Krejcikova. How did we not see that one coming? Elsewhere, there's chat about Jack Draper's desire for more time on court, France's Tiafoe's position in the pecking order of American men at this tournament, and Joao Fonseca setting up a round two clash with Tomas Machac. Part two - Night session (36:57). Carlos Alcaraz has a new haircut…and a new ability to lock in in the first round? We discuss his straight sets win over Reilly Opelka and round up the other key moments, including an incredible second set by Venus Williams in her eventual defeat to Karolina Muchova. Oh and there's also a rant about faff. Part three - Day three order of play and tribute to Angela Mortimer Barrett.

In the biggest upset of the tournament so far, sixth seed Madison Keys lost to Mexican Renata Zarazua in three sets. Regardless of this result, however, 2025 will go down as a career-season for the 30-year-old American. 
 Taylor Townsend beat Antonia Ruzic in straight sets on a busy Court 11, in a display packed  variety and court craft. Townsend will face fellow doubles specialist Jelena Ostapenko in round two. 
 Clervie Ngounoue showed incredible heart to recover from a bagel first set before falling in three to 29th seed Anna Kalinskaya. The 19-year-old American has an exciting future ahead. 
 Frances Tiafoe did his thing against Yoshihito Nishioka on Arthur Ashe, beating the Japanese in straight sets. Big Foe threw down 19 aces and ended the match in style with two unreturnables in a row. 
 Venus Williams, “the inventor of tennis”, gave the Arthur Ashe crowd a show in a thrilling three-set defeat to 11th seed Karolina Muchova. Lucy was in awe. 
 In a late one on Court 12, Gabriel Diallo handled business against Damir Dzumhur in four sets. The Canadian 31st seed managed the match superbly after a lapse in concentration cost him in the second set. 
 Finally, Alycia Parks was ruthlessly dispatched by fifth seed Mirra Andreeva in a match the American struggled to get in to.   Listen out for post-match press snippets from Keys, Townsend and Tiafoe.

Lucy and Eugene are back after a little rest post-Wimbledon. Before recapping the brilliant Washington Open, we share our thoughts on Naomi Osaka parting ways with Patrick Mouratoglou. Osaka will be working with Iga Swiatek's former coach Tomasz Wiktorowski for a trial period starting in Montreal. Venus Williams was the story at the Citi Open. The 45-year-old brought the crowd and excitement to DC and made more history in the process. Taylor Townsend is the new doubles world No 1 following another title in Washington. Townsend is the first mother to be crowned world No 1! Ben Shelton and Frances Tiafoe met in the quarter-finals and the match delivered. Action now turns to Canada where Coco Gauff, Madison Keys and Jasmine Paolini are among the top seeds in Montreal. In Toronto, Arthur Fils makes his long-awaited return.

Nigel Seeley and Sean Calvert wrap up the week by analyzing slow conditions and player form across Umag and Washington and highlighting betting angles in Shelton vs. Diallo and Tiafoe vs. Kovacevic.

We had rain on Day 3 at the Championships which caused a slight delay to proceedings. When play did begin, Madison Keys wasted no time against Olga Danilovic, winning in straight sets. Naomi Osaka also secured an impressive straight-sets win over last year's ladies doubles champion Katerina Siniakova. Felix Auger-Aliassime took the first set against Jan-Lennard Struff before the German secured the second. Their match, tied at one-set-all, was suspended due to bad light and will resume on Day 4.

Frances Tiafoe Proffeesional Tennis Player Captivating the world with his undeniable talent, charismatic ways and his unique energy on and off the court, Frances Tiafoe shares his journey from humble beginnings to becoming one of the most recognizable faces in tennis today. On this episode of The Pivot Podcast, Ryan, Fred, and Channing chop it up with Tiafoe about how it all started and how life has totally changed for him since winning more which has led to his ever-growing fame. The guys talk all things tennis with Frances, explaining how training works, the mindset necessary and how the current landscape is the perfect opportunity for Frances to rise in sports. Elevating the attention of tennis over the past couple years, Frances' matches have become a magnet of entertainment and unwavering outpour of support, from receiving daily texts of A-list athletes to getting private invites to hang with Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce to defeating the sport's megastars on global stage has shaped Tiafoe's path in ways he never thought possible. Despite the star-studded encounters, Frances keeps it real, always remembering his roots and the community that's had his back from the start. He's focused on the bigger picture—winning key matches, staying true to himself and pouring into the people and things he loves. With a chance to rewrite history books. Frances opens up about how Venus and Serena Williams have been huge influences on his game, not just as players but as role models. He shares how the pressure to succeed is heavy but carrying that weight has led him to have unimaginable highs such as defeating Rafeal Nadal and going toe to toe with the best players in the world. Never shying away from competition, Frances explains how losing his cool in the heat of the moment or seeming unfocused stems from the passion he has for tennis, not a lack of respect or arrogance toward the sport itself. Looking back at one memorable match that stands out to us all, Frances reflects on how it felt like he was being made an example of and he felt he had no choice but to stand up for himself. He admits to the guys it wasn't his best moment, but it was a learning experience and something he's grown from. While he tries to keep things light and avoid getting too wrapped up in the intensity, he admits it's not always easy. The competitiveness in tennis can make it tough to have authentic relationships, but Frances is committed to staying true to himself and loyal to his day one support system.
