Mundo Express - Black Sun y Ñusta Picuasi, Canción La Pinta, La Niña y La Santa María by FM Mundo 98.1

A full review of the 2026 US Open with one of the most respected voices in the sport: STEVE FLINK, International Tennis Hall of Famer and author of "The Greatest Tennis Matches of All Time" and "The Immortals of American Tennis."Steve has been covering this tournament since the early 1970s, when Bud Collins hired him to do research at Wimbledon and the US Open. He spent 17 years at World Tennis magazine and 15 more as senior writer at Tennis Week. There are very few people alive who can place a fortnight like this one in its proper historical context — so that's exactly what we did.WHAT WE COVERAlexander Zverev beat Ben Shelton 6-3, 7-6(2), 5-7, 6-2 for his SECOND Grand Slam title — six years after leading Dominic Thiem by two sets in the 2020 final on this same court and losing. It caps a season with a maiden major at Roland-Garros, the Wimbledon final, and semifinals at all four Slams.Elena Rybakina beat Aryna Sabalenka 6-4, 5-7, 6-2 for her THIRD major and first US Open, denying the two-time defending champion a three-peat that would have made her the first woman to do it since SERENA WILLIAMS in 2012-14. Rybakina has now beaten Sabalenka in both 2026 Grand Slam finals and moves to World No. 1.And the American question Steve has written a book about. Ben Shelton became the first American man in a Grand Slam final since ANDY RODDICK IN 2003, the first Black American man in a US Open final since ARTHUR ASHE IN 1972, and the first in any major final since MaliVai Washington at Wimbledon in 1996 — and the drought now stretches to 23 years. We asked Steve where Shelton fits in that lineage, and what it will actually take.We also get into Shelton's 3:33 A.M. win over defending champion Carlos Alcaraz — the latest finish in US Open history — and where it ranks among great US Open matches; Novak Djokovic's first-round exit to Mariano Navone, his first opening-round Grand Slam loss in twenty years; Zheng Qinwen's run from qualifying to the quarterfinals; and what Jannik Sinner's absence meant for the draw.⏱️ TIMESTAMPS00:00 Intro – US Open 2026 review with Steve Flink00:40 Rybakina's US Open title run – injury doubts to champion07:50 Rybakina becomes World No. 1 – handling the pressure10:25 Rybakina vs Sabalenka final – the best servers in women's tennis13:00 Rybakina's net play, movement & improved tennis IQ17:00 Sabalenka's Grand Slam final record – what's next?20:10 Coco Gauff – serve improvements & semifinal run22:45 Jessica Pegula – is time running out for a first Slam?27:20 Linda Noskova – backing up Wimbledon vs Sabalenka28:35 Naomi Osaka's comeback – the 5-0 turnarounds31:10 Alexander Zverev wins the US Open – two Slams in 202633:10 Has Zverev's level improved, or was it the draw?41:35 Ben Shelton – beating Alcaraz, Tiafoe & first Slam final50:40 Novak Djokovic's first-round loss – is time catching up?57:10 Carlos Alcaraz's comeback after 4.5 months out61:05 Final thoughts & wrap-up- Mantis 10%: https://mantissport.com/qualityshot10 (At Checkout)- IM8 10% OFF: https://im8.go2cloud.org/aff_c?offer_id=26&aff_id=2077 (Code QST10 at Checkout)- Acemate: https://www.acematetennis.com?sca_ref=11586466.udoQ3GLV6m55xoG1&utm_source=uppromote&utm_medium=referral&utm_campaign=standard-affiliate-commission&utm_content=affiliate-QualityShot-Tennis---Copyright Disclaimer: Under Section 107 of the Copyright Act 1976, allowance is made for "fair use" for purposes such as criticism, comment, news reporting, teaching, scholarship, and research.

In part two, Boris explores the odd biography of the mosque's co-founder; respected nuclear scientist, US Army colonel, and Sufi Sheikh Asaf Duraković who had dark connections to Ustaša war criminals and right-wing extremists. They follow the progression of the mosque from the Cold War to the 90s, when its designation changed from Croation to Bosnian. --- Subscribe to https://patreon.org/tenepod https://bsky.app/profile/tenepod.bsky.social https://x.com/tenepod

The 2026 US Open is done. Alexander Zverev and Elena Rybakina are the champions — and I'm joined by Christian from CHRISTIAN'S COURT for a full tournament review covering everything that happened over an extraordinary fortnight in New York.THE CHAMPIONSAlexander Zverev beat Ben Shelton 6-3, 7-6(2), 5-7, 6-2 for his SECOND Grand Slam title, six years after leading Dominic Thiem by two sets in the 2020 final here and losing. It caps his best season: a maiden major at Roland-Garros, the Wimbledon final, and at least the semifinals at all four Slams in 2026.Elena Rybakina beat Aryna Sabalenka 6-4, 5-7, 6-2 for her THIRD major and first US Open, denying the two-time defending champion a three-peat that would have made her the first woman to do it since Serena Williams in 2012-14. Rybakina has now beaten Sabalenka in BOTH 2026 Grand Slam finals, and takes over as World No. 1.ALCARAZThe defending champion returned from a four-month layoff after a wrist injury at the Barcelona Open and looked to be building beautifully — until Ben Shelton dethroned him 6-7(5), 6-1, 6-3, 1-6, 7-6(10-7) in a quarterfinal that finished at 3:33 A.M., the latest finish in US Open history, ending an 18-match Grand Slam winning streak.SABALENKATwo-time defending champion, World No. 1 coming in, sixth straight US Open semifinal — and it ends with the three-peat denied and the top ranking gone. Where does she go from here?We also cover Zheng Qinwen's run from qualifying to the quarterfinals, Novak Djokovic's first-round exit, Shelton and Tiafoe's all-American semifinal, and what the rest of the season looks like.⏱️ TIMESTAMPS0:00 Intro ft.

The Carton Show criticize the USTA for scheduling the US Open men's final against the NFL's opening Sunday before pivoting to a debate comparing Madison Beer and Taylor Swift. The conversation shifts to a deep dive into the New York Giants' recent performance, with a caller comparing the current team's potential to the 2008 squad.(00:01:36) US Open Scheduling Critique(00:03:03) Beer vs Swift Debate(00:10:05) Giants Win Over Cowboys

I picked Ben Shelton. I was wrong. Alexander Zverev beat him 6-3, 7-6(2), 5-7, 6-2 to win the 2026 US OPEN — his second Grand Slam title, and another year where American men's wait goes on. Full post-match analysis and an honest look at what I got wrong.Zverev was ruthless from the start. He took the opening set 6-3, then won the tiebreak 7-2 to move two sets clear, and even when Shelton found a way back to take the third 7-5 on Arthur Ashe with the crowd roaring, the German simply reset and closed it out 6-2. It's the completion of a redemption arc six years in the making: Zverev was a US Open finalist in 2020, when he led Dominic Thiem by two sets and lost.It caps the best season of his career. He broke through at ROLAND-GARROS this year for his first major, reached the WIMBLEDON FINAL, and made at least the semifinals at ALL FOUR Grand Slams in 2026. He was elevated to top seed here after Jannik Sinner withdrew with a knee injury, and he justified it without ever really being troubled.For Ben Shelton, it's the end of an extraordinary fortnight that still ends in heartbreak. He dethroned defending champion Carlos Alcaraz 6-7(5), 6-1, 6-3, 1-6, 7-6(10-7) in a five-set classic that finished at 3:33 A.M. — the latest finish in US Open history — then beat Frances Tiafoe in an all-American semifinal to become the first American man in a Grand Slam final since ANDY RODDICK IN 2003, and the first Black American man in a US Open final since ARTHUR ASHE IN 1972. The drought he was trying to end now stretches to 23 YEARS.And the head-to-head held: Zverev is now 6-0 against Shelton, having taken 13 of the 15 sets they have played. That was the thing I underweighted in my prediction, and I explain exactly why in this video.In this video: set-by-set breakdown, the tiebreak that decided it, where Shelton's third-set revival came from and why it didn't hold, what I got wrong in my preview, and what comes next for both players.

Elena Rybakina has beaten Aryna Sabalenka 6-4, 5-7, 6-2 to win the 2026 US OPEN — denying the two-time defending champion a place in history and claiming her first title at Flushing Meadows. Full post-match analysis and reaction.Sabalenka was chasing a THREE-PEAT. A third consecutive US Open title would have made her the first woman to do it since SERENA WILLIAMS in 2012-14, and would have brought a fifth career major and a 20th straight win at this tournament. She had survived Wimbledon champion Linda Noskova 7-6(1), 3-6, 7-6(7) in the quarterfinals and dismantled Jessica Pegula in the semifinal to get here.Rybakina had taken the hardest route in the draw and kept finding answers. She overpowered Naomi Osaka 6-1, 6-4, ended qualifier Zheng Qinwen's extraordinary run 3-6, 6-1, 6-4, then came from a set down to beat Coco Gauff 3-6, 6-4, 6-4 in the semifinals. In the final she did it again — taking the opener, losing a tight second as Sabalenka forced her way back, and then running away with the decider 6-2.It's her THIRD major title and her FIRST US Open. And it continues a pattern that is becoming the defining rivalry in women's tennis: Rybakina has now beaten Sabalenka in BOTH 2026 GRAND SLAM FINALS they have contested, after winning the Australian Open final in January, and also took the 2025 WTA Finals title match against her. Sabalenka's answer this season was the Sunshine Double, beating Rybakina in both the Indian Wells and Miami finals. Sabalenka still leads the overall head-to-head, but Rybakina now leads their Grand Slam finals 2-1.On the rankings: Rybakina moves to World No. 1 on Monday with Sabalenka dropping to No. 2 — but that was already mathematically confirmed before this match was played. The title doesn't change the ranking. It does mean she arrives at No. 1 as the reigning Australian Open AND US Open champion.In this video: how the match was won set by set, where the second set slipped and how Rybakina reset, the serving and return numbers that decided it, what it means for Sabalenka, and where this rivalry stands going into the rest of the season.

Alexander Zverev vs Ben Shelton — full preview, head-to-head breakdown and prediction for the 2026 US OPEN FINAL on Arthur Ashe Stadium. An American man is one match from ending a 23-year wait, against an opponent who has never lost to him.Ben Shelton is the story of the tournament. The eighth seed reached his FIRST GRAND SLAM FINAL by beating Frances Tiafoe 4-6, 6-3, 6-3, 7-5 in an all-American semifinal — and he got there the hardest way imaginable, dethroning defending champion Carlos Alcaraz 6-7(5), 6-1, 6-3, 1-6, 7-6(10-7) in a five-set classic that finished at 3:33 A.M., the latest finish in US Open history. He is the FIRST AMERICAN MAN IN A GRAND SLAM FINAL SINCE ANDY RODDICK IN 2003, the first Black American man in a US Open final since ARTHUR ASHE IN 1972, and the first in any major final since MaliVai Washington at Wimbledon in 1996. He's had a career-best season: four titles in Dallas, Munich, Stuttgart and Montreal, and a 39-13 record.Alexander Zverev has finally become the player everyone expected. The top seed broke through at ROLAND-GARROS this year for his first major, then reached the WIMBLEDON FINAL, and has now made at least the semifinals at ALL FOUR Grand Slams in 2026. This is his SIXTH major final and his third in a row. He beat Karen Khachanov 6-3, 7-6(7), 7-6(6) to get here, and he was a US Open finalist back in 2020, when he led Dominic Thiem by two sets and lost.And here's the brutal part for American hopes: ZVEREV IS 5-0 AGAINST SHELTON. Four of those five wins came in straight sets, and he has taken 10 of the 11 sets they've played — Shelton's only set came in their very first meeting in Cincinnati. They have never met at a Grand Slam.Pedigree against momentum. Experience against a crowd that will be deafening. Who wins the last major of 2026?

Ben Shelton vs Frances Tiafoe — full preview, head-to-head breakdown and prediction for the ALL-AMERICAN SEMIFINAL at the 2026 US Open. Whoever wins makes history, and an American man is guaranteed a place in the final for the first time in over two decades.The stakes here are extraordinary. The winner of this match becomes the FIRST BLACK AMERICAN MAN TO REACH A US OPEN FINAL SINCE ARTHUR ASHE IN 1972 — and the first to reach ANY Grand Slam final since 1996. It also guarantees an American men's finalist at Flushing Meadows for the first time since Andy Roddick in 2003, the last year an American man won this title.Ben Shelton arrives off the match of the tournament. The eighth seed dethroned defending champion Carlos Alcaraz 6-7(5), 6-1, 6-3, 1-6, 7-6(10-7) in a four-hour-28-minute classic that finished at 3:33 A.M. — the LATEST FINISH IN US OPEN HISTORY — ending Alcaraz's 18-match Grand Slam winning streak. He came into New York as the Montreal Masters 1000 champion after a career-best season with titles in Dallas, Munich and Stuttgart.Frances Tiafoe produced a comeback of his own. The 11th seed trailed fellow American Alex Michelsen by TWO SETS AND A BREAK before completing the biggest Grand Slam comeback of his career, 5-7, 3-6, 7-5, 6-3, 7-6(10-6) across nearly five hours. New York is where Tiafoe has always played his best tennis — this is familiar territory for him.Shelton leads the head-to-head 3-1, but at the US Open specifically they are level at 1-1: Shelton won their 2023 quarterfinal on the way to the semifinals, Tiafoe won a five-setter in 2024. Both men are running on fumes after marathon quarterfinals. Whoever recovers better probably wins.

Alexander Zverev vs Karen Khachanov — full preview, head-to-head breakdown and prediction for the SEMIFINAL of the 2026 US Open. The top seed and reigning French Open champion against a big-hitter chasing a first Grand Slam final at 30.Alexander Zverev has had the cleanest route of anyone left. The top seed — elevated after World No. 1 Jannik Sinner withdrew with a knee injury — won ROLAND-GARROS this season for his FIRST GRAND SLAM TITLE, becoming the first player other than Sinner or Carlos Alcaraz to win a major since 2024. In New York he has barely been troubled, cruising past Botic van de Zandschulp 6-2, 7-5, 6-1 in the quarterfinals on Arthur Ashe. He was a US Open finalist back in 2020, where he led by two sets before losing to Dominic Thiem. This is his chance to finish the job.Karen Khachanov is chasing the final that has always eluded him. This is only his THIRD Grand Slam semifinal — after the 2022 US Open and the 2023 Australian Open, losing both — and his first since. He reached the last four here when Alexander Blockx retired in their quarterfinal at 6-2, 7-5, 3-2. At 30, with one of the heaviest forehands on tour, he is bidding for a maiden major final.The head-to-head favours the German: Zverev leads 6-3 across nine meetings, and 5-3 in the eight played on hard courts. But Khachanov's three wins in the rivalry have ALL come on hard courts, and he beat Zverev en route to the Toronto final in their recent history. He knows how to hurt him.With Alcaraz and Djokovic both out, this half has opened completely. Whoever wins here is one match from a major title.

Aryna Sabalenka vs Elena Rybakina — full preview, head-to-head breakdown and prediction for the 2026 US OPEN FINAL on Arthur Ashe Stadium. A rematch of the Australian Open final, a piece of Serena Williams history on the line, and a No. 1 ranking that has already changed hands.Aryna Sabalenka is chasing something nobody has done in over a decade. The two-time defending champion is bidding to become the FIRST WOMAN TO WIN THREE STRAIGHT US OPEN TITLES SINCE SERENA WILLIAMS in 2012-14. Victory would give her a FIFTH career major and a 20TH CONSECUTIVE WIN at this tournament. She survived Wimbledon champion Linda Noskova 7-6(1), 3-6, 7-6(7) in the quarterfinals, then demolished Jessica Pegula in the semifinal to get here.Elena Rybakina is already the new World No. 1 — she takes over the top ranking on Monday regardless of what happens on Saturday, with Sabalenka dropping to No. 2. The reigning Australian Open champion has taken the hard road all fortnight: past Naomi Osaka 6-1, 6-4, past qualifier Zheng Qinwen 3-6, 6-1, 6-4, and then a comeback win over Coco Gauff 3-6, 6-4, 6-4 in the semifinals. A second major of 2026 is one match away.The rivalry is one of the best in the sport. Sabalenka leads 10-7 overall, but the biggest matches have gone Rybakina's way lately — she won the 2025 WTA FINALS title match AND the 2026 AUSTRALIAN OPEN FINAL, both against Sabalenka. Sabalenka answered by beating her in the Indian Wells AND Miami finals to sweep the Sunshine Double.This is their THIRD Grand Slam final against each other, and they have split the first two. Power against power, the best two hard-court players in the world, for the last major of the season.

Coco Gauff vs Elena Rybakina — full preview, head-to-head breakdown and prediction for the SEMIFINAL of the 2026 US Open. The new World No. 1 against the 2023 champion, in a final four that hasn't happened at this tournament in 51 YEARS.Elena Rybakina arrives with the biggest news of the fortnight already secured: she WILL BECOME WORLD NO. 1 after this tournament, replacing Aryna Sabalenka, after edging Zheng Qinwen 3-6, 6-1, 6-4 in the quarterfinals. The reigning Australian Open champion had to come from a set down to end the qualifier's extraordinary run, and it caps a stretch in which she has beaten Naomi Osaka 6-1, 6-4 and won 42 of her last 50 hard-court matches. She is the form player on this surface, full stop.Coco Gauff is one match from a second US Open final, and she just survived the scare of her tournament. Having not dropped a set through four rounds, the fourth seed found herself a set and two MATCH POINTS down against 2026 Roland-Garros champion Mirra Andreeva before rallying to win 2-6, 7-6(7), 6-2 — extending her perfect head-to-head over Andreeva to 6-0. She came into New York as the Cincinnati Open champion, exactly as she did in 2023 before winning her maiden Grand Slam in this building.The head-to-head is dead level at 1-1 — and the last meeting was recent. In the Toronto semifinals on August 13, Rybakina lost the opening set and then took control, winning 5-7, 6-2, 6-2.For context on how strong this final four is: this is the FIRST TIME SINCE 1975 that all top four seeds have reached the US Open women's semifinals, with Sabalenka facing Jessica Pegula in the other half.

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.

Coco Gauff vs Mirra Andreeva — full preview, head-to-head breakdown and prediction for their QUARTERFINAL at the 2026 US Open. A reigning French Open champion who has NEVER beaten her opponent, against a home favourite who has not dropped a set all tournament.Coco Gauff is back in the last eight in New York for the first time since her title run in 2023 — and the parallels keep stacking up. The fourth seed arrived as the Cincinnati Open champion, her first title of 2026 and her second in that building, exactly as she did before winning her maiden Grand Slam here three years ago. She has been flawless since: NOT A SET DROPPED in four matches, closing with a clinical 6-1, 6-4 win over 14th seed Iva Jovic in 80 minutes.Mirra Andreeva is into her first US OPEN QUARTERFINAL, and she has had to work for it. The fifth seed and 2026 ROLAND-GARROS CHAMPION — the youngest women's champion in Paris since Monica Seles in 1992 — has been tested repeatedly, most recently surviving Anastasia Potapova 5-7, 6-4, 6-3 after dropping the opening set. At 19, with a major already won and a title in Linz plus a Madrid final this season, she is a genuine threat on any surface.Except, apparently, against Gauff. The American leads the head-to-head 5-0 across five meetings, most recently 6-4, 7-6(5) in the Rome quarterfinals in 2025. Andreeva has never solved her. "It'll come down to who holds up better in the big moments," Gauff said.Fresh legs against three-set grinding, a perfect record against a Grand Slam champion. Who reaches the semifinals?

Elena Rybakina vs Zheng Qinwen — full preview, head-to-head breakdown and prediction for their QUARTERFINAL at the 2026 US Open. The World No. 1 ranking on one side, the most improbable run of the tournament on the other.Elena Rybakina is one win from the top of the game. The second seed and reigning Australian Open champion is GUARANTEED TO REPLACE ARYNA SABALENKA AS WORLD NO. 1 if she reaches the semifinals here. She has been overwhelming all fortnight and produced her best performance yet in the round of 16, overpowering Naomi Osaka 6-1, 6-4 in a rematch of their Toronto quarterfinal. Add the Canadian Open final and 42 wins in her last 50 hard-court matches, and she is the form player on this surface.Zheng Qinwen's run is one of the stories of the year. The Paris 2024 Olympic gold medallist and former World No. 4 fell to No. 121 after elbow surgery and had to come through QUALIFYING just to reach this main draw. She is now the FIRST QUALIFIER TO REACH THE US OPEN LAST EIGHT SINCE EMMA RADUCANU WON THE TITLE IN 2021 — and she has done it the hard way. Twice. She erased a 5-0 deficit and saved match point to beat Madison Keys 1-6, 7-6(3), 7-5, then fell 5-0 down AGAIN against Iga Swiatek before reeling off SEVEN STRAIGHT GAMES to win 7-5, 6-3 — against an opponent who led their head-to-head 7-1.That single previous loss for Swiatek? The Paris 2024 Olympic semifinal, where Zheng also came from behind. This is what she does.An eight-match winning streak and nothing to lose against the most powerful player in the draw with the No. 1 ranking on the line. Who reaches the semifinals?

Aryna Sabalenka vs Linda Noskova — full preview, head-to-head breakdown and prediction for their QUARTERFINAL at the 2026 US Open. The two-time defending champion against the reigning Wimbledon champion, with a piece of history on the line.Aryna Sabalenka is the World No. 1, the top seed, and TWO-TIME DEFENDING CHAMPION chasing a historic third straight US Open title — and her first major of 2026. She has been imperious in New York, extending her winning streak at this tournament and coming through American Taylor Townsend in straight sets in the round of 16 after earlier wins over Camila Osorio and Kamilla Rakhimova. Her projected semifinal is Jessica Pegula.Linda Noskova is chasing something nobody has done in seven years. The Czech won WIMBLEDON this season, and a title here would make her the FIRST PLAYER TO WIN BACK-TO-BACK MAJORS SINCE NAOMI OSAKA at the 2019 Australian Open. Seeded sixth, she has been tested and keeps finding answers — she needed three sets and SIX MATCH POINTS to finally put away Marta Kostyuk 7-5, 5-7, 6-4 in the fourth round, after earlier wins over Katie Volynets and Thailand's Lanlana Tararudee.But the head-to-head is a problem. Sabalenka leads 2-0, both on hard courts, and both were comfortable: 6-3, 7-6(4) in the 2023 Adelaide final, and 6-3, 6-4 in the Indian Wells semifinal earlier this year on her way to that title. Noskova has never taken a set off her.Power against power, a defending champion against a first-time Slam winner still learning what she's capable of. Who reaches the semifinals?

Carlos Alcaraz vs Ben Shelton — full preview, head-to-head breakdown and prediction for the biggest QUARTERFINAL of the 2026 US Open. The defending champion's 18-match Grand Slam winning streak against the biggest American hope in two decades.Carlos Alcaraz has gone from rusty to ruthless. Having not played competitive singles since a wrist injury at the Barcelona Open in mid-April, the second seed has needed only a set to warm up — after dropping the opener to Jaime Faria, he has been close to untouchable, dismantling Wu Yibing 6-3, 6-4, 6-1 and then handling Tommy Paul 6-4, 6-3, 6-4 to extend his personal-best GRAND SLAM WIN STREAK TO 18 MATCHES. At 23, he is chasing something no man has done since Roger Federer's five straight from 2004 to 2008: defending the US Open.Ben Shelton has never looked more ready. The No. 8 seed came into New York as the Montreal Masters 1000 champion, off a career-best season with three titles on three surfaces in Dallas, Munich and Stuttgart. He survived a 2:07 A.M. finish against Denis Shapovalov, then delivered his best performance of the fortnight, blowing away the resurgent Stefanos Tsitsipas 6-2, 6-3, 6-4. A win here would be the signature victory of his career — and he is chasing something bigger: no American man has won the US Open since ANDY RODDICK IN 2003.The problem is the head-to-head. Alcaraz leads 3-0 — Toronto 2023, the Laver Cup in 2024, and the Roland-Garros fourth round in 2025, where he won 7-6(8), 6-3, 4-6, 6-4. Shelton has taken a set, but never the match.Two of the biggest serves and biggest personalities in the sport, on Arthur Ashe, with a New York crowd fully behind the American. This is the match of the tournament.

Coco Gauff vs Iva Jovic — full preview, head-to-head breakdown and prediction for their ALL-AMERICAN FOURTH ROUND clash at the 2026 US Open. The Cincinnati champion against the 18-year-old who just ended Alexandra Eala's run in a three-hour epic. First career meeting.Coco Gauff has quietly built the ideal week. The fourth seed and World No. 4 arrived in New York as the Cincinnati Open champion — her first title of 2026, her second in Cincinnati, and her 12th career title — after beating Jessica Pegula 6-2, 6-4 in the first all-American women's final there in 56 years. She's now come through Zeynep Sonmez, Magdalena Frech and Cristina Bucsa 6-3, 6-4 to reach the round of 16. The parallel is impossible to ignore: in 2023 a Cincinnati title was the launchpad to her maiden Grand Slam in this exact building.Iva Jovic has announced herself. The 14th seed and career-high World No. 14 came through one of the matches of the tournament, outlasting 17th seed Alexandra Eala 7-5, 3-6, 7-5 in a THREE-HOUR MARATHON on Arthur Ashe Stadium on Saturday night — a third career win over the Filipina, in the most demanding circumstances yet. "It took literally everything," she said. At 18, she's already made an Australian Open quarterfinal, becoming the youngest American woman to reach the last eight in Melbourne since Venus Williams in 1998, plus the Wimbledon fourth round, and is 31-16 on the season. This is her first US Open round of 16.They have never played on tour. Two American teenagers-turned-contenders, an Ashe crowd that wins either way, and a Grand Slam quarterfinal on the line. The question is whether Jovic has anything left in the legs after three hours — and whether Gauff's returning can exploit it.

Elena Rybakina vs Naomi Osaka — full preview, head-to-head breakdown and prediction for their FOURTH ROUND clash at the 2026 US Open. A Toronto rematch just four weeks on, with a quarterfinal and the World No. 1 ranking both in play.Elena Rybakina is the second seed, the reigning Australian Open champion, and she is INCHING CLOSER TO WORLD NO. 1 with every round in New York. She has been efficient all week, coming through American wild card Thea Frodin and then Yuliia Starodubtseva 7-6, 6-3 to reach the last 16. She is also the form hard-court player on tour, and she is the reigning Canadian Open finalist — she went on from beating Osaka in Toronto to make the final there.Naomi Osaka looks like her old self. The four-time Grand Slam champion — a two-time US Open winner — has been building all summer: a run to the DC Open semifinals in Washington, a quarterfinal in Toronto, and now her deepest New York run in years. She beat Hailey Baptiste, then Daria Kasatkina to reach a Grand Slam round of 16 for the first time since 2021, and survived a genuine test against 23rd seed Elise Mertens 6-3, 3-6, 7-5 in 2 hours and 38 minutes, squandering three match points before closing it out.And this is the rematch. Just four weeks ago in the Toronto quarterfinals — their FIRST EVER meeting — Osaka won the opening set before Rybakina came back to take it 4-6, 7-6(5), 6-4 across 2 hours and 33 minutes, firing 13 aces and saving four break points in the decider. Osaka was a set up and right there. She gets another crack, on the court where she has won two majors.

Iga Swiatek vs Zheng Qinwen — full preview, head-to-head breakdown and prediction for their FOURTH ROUND clash at the 2026 US Open. A six-time Grand Slam champion against an Olympic gold medallist who had to QUALIFY just to get here. One of the great comeback stories of the year.Iga Swiatek is seeded eighth, unusually low for her, after an erratic season — though she found form to win the Canadian Open in Toronto, beating Elina Svitolina and reaching the final. In New York she has been grinding rather than gliding: she needed two tiebreaks to get past 25th seed Marie Bouzkova 7-6(3), 7-6(3), dominating both breakers to reach the last 16. The 2022 US Open champion is chasing a second title here, and her section has been the toughest in the draw all fortnight.Zheng Qinwen's story is remarkable. The Paris 2024 Olympic gold medallist and former World No. 4 fell to No. 121 after elbow surgery and a year of stop-start rehab — she had to come through QUALIFYING just to reach this main draw. Now she's on a SIX-MATCH WINNING STREAK and back in the US Open round of 16 for the first time in two years, after producing the comeback of the tournament: from 5-0 DOWN in the deciding set and SAVING MATCH POINT against 22nd seed Madison Keys, she won the final SEVEN GAMES to take it 1-6, 7-6(3), 7-5.Two months ago Zheng lost to Alexandra Eala in the first round in Washington. This is a completely different player. Swiatek is the heavy favourite on paper — but nobody in this draw has more momentum or less to lose.

Carlos Alcaraz vs Tommy Paul — full preview, head-to-head breakdown and prediction for their FOURTH ROUND clash at the 2026 US Open at Flushing Meadows, New York. History on the line for both men.Carlos Alcaraz looks like he's finally through the rust. The defending champion — who arrived in New York having not played competitive singles since a wrist injury at the Barcelona Open in mid-April — dismantled Wu Yibing 6-3, 6-4, 6-1 on Arthur Ashe to extend his personal-best GRAND SLAM WIN STREAK TO 17 MATCHES. At 23, he is bidding to become the first man to successfully defend the US Open since Roger Federer's five straight from 2004 to 2008.Tommy Paul is chasing history of his own. The No. 20 seed came through a brutal five-setter against Alexander Bublik 6-4, 3-6, 6-7(4), 6-1, 6-3 to match his career-best US Open run, and a win here would make him the ONLY ACTIVE AMERICAN MAN to reach the quarterfinals at all four Grand Slams — he already has Australian Open (2023, 2025), Roland-Garros (2025) and Wimbledon (2024). Only New York is missing.The head-to-head is a problem for the American: Alcaraz leads 6-2 and has won their LAST FIVE MEETINGS. Paul also has significantly more mileage in his legs after nearly four hours against Bublik, while Alcaraz has spent barely any time on court in his last two rounds.But this is Arthur Ashe on Labor Day weekend, with a home crowd behind Paul and a defending champion still not certain he's back to his best. Full tactical breakdown and my prediction below.

Aryna Sabalenka vs Taylor Townsend — full preview, head-to-head breakdown and prediction for their FOURTH ROUND clash at the 2026 US Open at Flushing Meadows, New York. The two-time defending champion against an American chasing a first Grand Slam quarterfinal. First career meeting.Aryna Sabalenka is the World No. 1, the top seed, and TWO-TIME DEFENDING CHAMPION chasing an historic third straight US Open title. She is on a 16-MATCH WINNING STREAK in New York and has looked in control all week, coming through Camila Osorio in the opening round and beating Kamilla Rakhimova 6-3, 6-4 to reach the last 16. Her projected route from here is a quarterfinal against Karolina Muchova and a semifinal against Jessica Pegula — the smoother half of the draw.Taylor Townsend is the story of the American week. Ranked 96th, the left-hander has beaten Roland-Garros runner-up Maja Chwalinska, then produced a serving clinic in round two — winning ALL 23 of her first-serve points — before upsetting 15th seed Diana Shnaider 6-2, 6-7(3), 6-3 across 2 hours and 27 minutes to reach the fourth round for a second straight year. "I'm built for these moments," she said afterwards. A former doubles No. 1 with hands nobody else in this draw has, she has NEVER reached a Grand Slam singles quarterfinal — at the US Open or anywhere.They have never played. Power against touch, the biggest hitter in the game against the best volleyer in the draw, on Sabalenka's favourite court with an American crowd desperate for an upset. This is the most stylistically fascinating match of the round.

Ben Shelton vs Stefanos Tsitsipas — full preview, head-to-head breakdown and prediction for their FOURTH ROUND clash at the 2026 US Open, on Arthur Ashe Stadium. A home favourite in the form of his life against a resurgent two-time Grand Slam finalist who has never been this deep in New York.Ben Shelton is the No. 8 seed and one of the biggest weapons in the draw. He came into New York as the reigning Masters 1000 champion in Montreal, having won a personal-best three titles on three different surfaces this season in Dallas, Munich and Stuttgart. But he had to work for this one: a grinding 7-6(3), 6-7(5), 6-3, 6-4 win over Denis Shapovalov that finished at 2:07 A.M. — the record third match of this tournament to end after 2am. That's serious mileage in the legs.Stefanos Tsitsipas is the story nobody predicted. Once World No. 3 and a two-time major finalist, he slipped outside the top 75 by May after 18 months of struggle, and split with his father as coach in June, bringing in Thomas Perrin from the Mouratoglou academy. In New York he has been reborn: he took out Cincinnati champion Arthur Fils 4-6, 7-6(3), 6-1, 6-4 despite trailing a set and 5-3 and being 0-5 in the head-to-head, then beat No. 18 seed Jiri Lehecka 2-6, 6-1, 7-6(3), 6-1. It's his FIRST US OPEN FOURTH ROUND in NINE main-draw appearances. "They're starting to embrace me," he said of the New York crowd.And the head-to-head favours the Greek: Tsitsipas leads 1-0, from Cincinnati in 2023. Shelton has the crowd, the power and the form. Tsitsipas has the momentum and the freshness. Who reaches the quarterfinals?

Chris Studley, USTA Managing Director of Event Services talked with Bloomberg's Tim Stenovec and Molly Smith on special edition of Bloomberg Businessweek Daily live at the US Open. He discussed how the US Open is as much a food-and-drink event as a tennis tournament. He says attendance and sales are up this year, noting more than 300,000 people came through during Fan Week and projecting about 800,000 Honey Deuces sold, up from 738,000 last year.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Venus and Serena get Friday night on Ashe against Maya Joint, the player who put Serena out of Wimbledon. Combined age ninety. Nobody at the USTA has called it a farewell tour and everybody is selling it like one.The rest of week one was about who this tournament is for now. An influencer at Arthur Ashe stood with his back to the court. His own box asked him to sit down. He said he was watching it on the TV.Nat filed ten hours from the grounds. Drake coming out of Ashe into a Tommy Paul match on Grandstand, nobody in the stadium able to hear Shelton's on-court interview, thirty-six minutes to get out of the building.Eleven hundred dollars for a lower bowl floor seat on a Wednesday afternoon, and the lower bowl forty percent full. Packed grounds, empty good seats, and Nat on exactly who that prices out.Alex Eala doubled the get-in price of a US Open ticket in twelve hours. ESPN put the Czech flag next to her name.JB ran influencers at the Delray Beach Open for twenty years. The Porsches, the handlers, the lanyards, and what happens when someone used to being the show works out that he isn't.The board at the top of round two. Nat likes Zverev and Fritz, won't separate Alcaraz and Shelton, and explains why DraftKings won't sell you a semifinal.Sebastian Gorzny won a college wild card playoff and saved five match points to reach round two. At fifteen he was given a five percent chance to live.

Alexandra Eala vs Iva Jovic — full preview, head-to-head breakdown and prediction for their THIRD ROUND clash at the 2026 US Open at Flushing Meadows, New York. Two of the brightest young players in the game, close friends off court, with a place in the second week of a Grand Slam on the line.Alex Eala has been close to flawless in New York. The 17th seed — the highest-seeded Filipina in Grand Slam history — has dropped just eight games in two rounds, sweeping American qualifier Mary Stoiana 6-1, 6-2 and then avenging her Strasbourg loss to Oleksandra Oliynykova 6-1, 6-4. It continues the summer that changed her career: the first WTA singles title ever won by a player from the Philippines at the DC Open in Washington, past Qinwen Zheng, Leylah Fernandez, Elina Svitolina, Naomi Osaka and world No. 3 Jessica Pegula, then a Toronto round of 16 and a place inside the world's top 20.Iva Jovic is no gentle draw. The 14th seed reached a career-high World No. 14 in August and is 31-16 on the season, with a maiden Grand Slam quarterfinal at the Australian Open — where she became the youngest American woman to reach the last eight in Melbourne since Venus Williams in 1998 — plus the third round at Roland-Garros and the fourth round at Wimbledon. She survived Magdalena Frech 7-5, 6-3 before beating Francesca Jones 6-4, 6-4.And here's the problem for Eala: Jovic OWNS this head-to-head. She won 6-4, 6-2 in the first round of the French Open and 6-2, 6-2 at Queen's — and she beat Eala again 6-3 in the "Stars of the Open" exhibition on Arthur Ashe just last week. Jovic says she's "super excited" for it. Eala has never taken a set off her.The winner reaches the second week. Can Eala finally solve her friend?

Carlos Alcaraz vs Wu Yibing — full preview, head-to-head breakdown and prediction for their THIRD ROUND clash at the 2026 US Open at Flushing Meadows, New York. The defending champion, still shaking off four months of rust, against a Chinese player quietly having the cleanest week in the bottom half.Carlos Alcaraz is finding his way back. The second seed returned to competitive singles here for the first time since a wrist injury at the Barcelona Open in mid-April, and the rust has been visible — he dropped the opening set to Jaime Faria before running away with it 4-6, 6-0, 6-3, 6-2, conceding just five games across the final three sets. That is the pattern so far: slow starts, then a level nobody in the draw can live with. He landed in what Spanish media called a "death draw," with Alexander Bublik potentially in round four and Ben Shelton or Arthur Fils in the quarterfinals, so building rhythm now matters.Wu Yibing is a better opponent than his ranking suggests. The Chinese player sits around World No. 113 after years disrupted by injury — he missed nearly three full seasons with elbow, back, shoulder and wrist problems before a rapid climb to a career-high No. 54 in 2023 — and he won the Sarasota Open title this year. Most importantly, he has NOT DROPPED A SET in two rounds in New York, coming through James Duckworth in straights.Alcaraz leads the head-to-head 1-0, from their only previous meeting in Shanghai in 2024. He is a heavy favourite. But a fresh opponent with nothing to lose against a champion still finding his timing is exactly the kind of match that gets interesting for a set.

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.

Alexander Bublik vs Tommy Paul — full preview, head-to-head breakdown and prediction for their THIRD ROUND clash at the 2026 US Open at Flushing Meadows, New York. Chaos against control, and an American who has usually had the answers.Alexander Bublik is the 15th seed and World No. 16, and he remains the most unpredictable ball-striker in the men's game. He won his ninth ATP Tour title in Hong Kong this season, beating Lorenzo Musetti 7-6(2), 6-3, and reached the fourth round of the Australian Open. In New York he opened by beating J.J. Wolf on the American's return from injury. On the right night, with the serve landing and the drop shots working, he can beat anybody in the draw — that has never been the question with Bublik.Tommy Paul is the World No. 21 and, on paper, the more reliable operator: a former Grand Slam semifinalist with a game built for exactly these conditions, and a genuine home-crowd advantage on the New York courts where American players tend to lift.The head-to-head tells the story. Paul leads 5-2 across seven career meetings, and the margins have generally been his too — 13 sets to 8, and even the games count in his favour at 114-103. Bublik has the higher ceiling; Paul has the better record of solving him.This one has five sets written all over it.

Alexandra Eala was IMPRESSIVE. Full post-match reaction and analysis after the No. 17 seed dismantled Oleksandra Oliynykova 6-1, 6-4 to reach the THIRD ROUND of the 2026 US Open.This was the revenge match, and Eala left nothing to chance. Oliynykova was the one player in this section with a win over her — the Ukrainian beat her 3-6, 7-5, 6-3 in the first round of the WTA 500 in Strasbourg back in May. Four months later, on Grand Slam centre stage, Eala flipped it comprehensively, racing through the opening set for the loss of a single game and closing it out in straight sets.It means back-to-back straight-sets wins in New York after her 6-1, 6-2 dismissal of American qualifier Mary Stoiana in round one, and a place in the third round of a Grand Slam. She arrived here as the highest-seeded Filipina in Grand Slam history at No. 17, off the summer that changed everything — the first WTA singles title ever won by a player from the Philippines at the DC Open in Washington, past Qinwen Zheng, Leylah Fernandez, Elina Svitolina, Naomi Osaka and world No. 3 Jessica Pegula, followed by a Toronto round of 16 and a rise into the world's top 20.In this video: full breakdown of the win, what she's doing better than she was in May, everything she said afterwards, and a look ahead at a third round that could produce one of the matches of the first week.

Linda Noskova vs Lanlana Tararudee — full preview, head-to-head breakdown and prediction for their SECOND ROUND match at the 2026 US Open at Flushing Meadows, New York. A reigning Wimbledon champion against Thailand's trailblazer.Linda Noskova arrives in New York as a Grand Slam champion. The Czech won Wimbledon this year and is seeded sixth here, and she opened her campaign in control, beating American Katie Volynets 7-5, 6-1. After a hard-court swing that included a shock loss to Caty McNally in Toronto, this is her chance to build a serious fortnight — she is in the same quarter as several of the draw's dangerous names, and a clean second round matters.Lanlana Tararudee is one of the stories of the first week. Thailand's No. 1 player, with a career-high ranking of World No. 99 set in May, she came through a genuine test in the opening round, beating Elvina Kalieva 6-3, 6-7(4), 6-2 across three sets. She is now into the second round of a Grand Slam with nothing to lose and an entire country watching.They have never played on the main tour. On paper it is a mismatch — a Slam champion and No. 6 seed against a player ranked around the top 100. But Tararudee has already shown this week she can win ugly, and second-round matches at Slams have a habit of getting complicated for seeds who are not fully switched on.

Alexandra Eala vs Oleksandra Oliynykova — full preview, head-to-head breakdown and prediction for their SECOND ROUND match at the 2026 US Open at Flushing Meadows, New York. Alexandra vs Oleksandra, and Eala has a score to settle.Alex Eala is through in style. The highest-seeded Filipina in Grand Slam history at No. 17 opened her campaign by sweeping aside American qualifier Mary Stoiana 6-1, 6-2, reaching the US Open second round for the second straight year. It caps a summer that produced the first WTA singles title ever won by a player from the Philippines — at the DC Open in Washington, past Qinwen Zheng, Leylah Fernandez, Elina Svitolina, Naomi Osaka and world No. 3 Jessica Pegula — plus a round-of-16 run in Toronto and a place inside the world's top 20.Oleksandra Oliynykova is a genuinely awkward next assignment. The Ukrainian, whose career-high sits around World No. 65, came through a solid first round against American wild card Reese Brantmeier 6-4, 6-4, and she brings something almost nobody else in this section does: a win over Eala. She beat her 3-6, 7-5, 6-3 in the first round of the WTA 500 in Strasbourg in May, in a tight three-setter.So Eala leads nothing here — Oliynykova leads the head-to-head 1-0. That was four months and an entire career transformation ago. This is the payback match, with a probable third-round meeting against No. 14 seed Iva Jovic waiting for the winner, and Coco Gauff beyond that.

Steve Smith and Dave Anderson are joined by Pol O'Callaghan for episode 315 of the GreatBase Tennis Podcast, kicking off with news of the USTA's new AI-powered coaching platform co-founded by Andre Agassi and Steffi Graf. The three dig into what AI can and cannot do for player development, making the case that no amount of technology can replace thousands of hours of hands-on coaching and the human relationship at the heart of real teaching.The conversation moves into a wide-ranging discussion on tennis parenting, drawing on stories from Steve and Dave's decades of experience with players and families, including the "three-legged stool" of parent, coach, and player, and the danger of a child's dream becoming a parent's dream instead. Pol closes with a thoughtful question on adapting to a generation with shorter attention spans, and the group lands on a shared belief that there is no substitute for hunger, hard work, and going back to basics.

A normal Thursday turned into three stories at once: Alcaraz announcing his US Open return, the USTA's record $108 million prize money package & Slam Player Council, and Karen Moorhouse stepping down as CEO of the ITIA. Andy and Jon get into what a 20% prize money increase actually buys the players, why first-round qualifying money is now higher than what Andy earned reaching the main draw, and the ticket price fight that's about to define this tournament — including why the $400 grounds passes people are screenshotting on Twitter aren't the USTA's list price. COMMENT BELOW: Are you excited for Carlos Alcaraz return?

Pulse of Israel usually is focued solely on Israel, but this about a non-Israel location has a deep connection to Israel and our Jewish story today.In this special episode of Pulse of Israel, Avi Abelow takes you on a journey through the breathtaking walled city of Dubrovnik, Croatia, revealing how a vacation became a powerful reminder of the miracle of modern Israel and why every Jew should appreciate the unique generation in which we live.Beyond the stunning medieval walls, crystal-clear Adriatic Sea, sunset kayaking, hidden swimming coves, and one of Europe's most beautiful historic cities lies a remarkable Jewish story spanning nearly 2,000 years. Avi learned how Jewish merchants from the Roman Empire and later Sephardic exiles from Spain and Portugal helped transform Dubrovnik into one of the Mediterranean's greatest commercial centers, connecting Jewish communities across Europe, North Africa, and the Ottoman Empire.He visited one of Europe's oldest Sephardic synagogues and learned about the vibrant Jewish community that once flourished there before being nearly destroyed during the Holocaust under the brutal Ustaše regime. Today, only a handful of Jews remain, yet their story carries an important lesson for every Jew alive today.Walking those ancient streets, one realization became impossible to ignore. For almost two thousand years our ancestors ended every Passover Seder and Yom Kippur with the words, "Next year in Jerusalem." They dreamed. They prayed. They waited.We don't have to. Jerusalem is rebuilt. Israel exists. Making aliyah no longer requires a miracle, it simply requires making the decision to come home.As Jew-hating antisemitism rises across much of Western Europe and the growing red-green alliance increasingly threatens Jewish communities throughout the Diaspora, this video's message is not one of fear, but of opportunity. We are the first generation in nearly 2,000 years with the privilege of returning home freely, raising our children in a Jewish state, speaking Hebrew, living according to the Jewish calendar, and helping build the future our ancestors could only dream about.Join Avi as he explores Dubrovnik's beauty, uncovers its forgotten Jewish history, and explains why its greatest lesson ultimately points every Jew toward Jerusalem.Join Our Whatsapp Channel: https://chat.whatsapp.com/GkavRznXy731nxxRyptCMvFollow us on Twitter: https://x.com/AviAbelowJoin our Telegram Channel: https://t.me/aviabelowpulseFollow us on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/pulse_of_israel/?hl=enPulse of Israel on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/IsraelVideoNetworkVisit Our Website - https://pulseofisrael.com/Donate to Pulse of Israel: https://pulseofisrael.com/boost-this-video/

He also shares stories from USTA dorm life, questionable roommates, why he's a driving nightmare, and the early Tour days before revisiting his unforgettable five-set heartbreak against John Isner at the US Open, his awful head-to-head against the boys... and the locker-room trash talk that followed after John's retirement.To celebrate Episode 200, ATP Tinder returns for Part 4 as Frances rates AI-generated versions of ATP stars, leading to nonstop roasting, brutal comparisons, and plenty of casualties.The episode wraps with Summer Buy/Sell picks, Fan Questions, and a reverse quiz game... exactly the kind of hilarious, unfiltered nonsense that's made Nothing Major 200 episodes strong!Chapters:00:00 200th Episode Kickoff00:40 Frances Tiafoe Joins the Pod!01:22 Tommy Paul Wedding Stories03:22 From Juniors to Pro Dream05:58 USTA Dorm Life Chaos09:01 Driving and Rivalries13:26 Early Tour Battles15:53 US Open Heartbreaker17:52 Roland Garros Celebration19:27 Travel Disasters and Miles Program23:35 DC and US Open Energy27:08 Night Match Routine28:53 ATP Tinder...

What does it really mean to "know your player"? In this episode of The Coaching Podcast, Coach EM sits down with former ATP professional, Olympic coach, and LTP Academy Co-Director Mike Sell to explore why great coaching begins with understanding the individual. Mike shares practical insights on tailoring development to each player's needs, creating purposeful practice with no wasted repetitions, preparing to win, and remaining calm under pressure—like the flight attendant during turbulence. They also discuss the value of having a second set of eyes on your coaching, the dangers of over-coaching, the importance of asking great questions and listening deeply, and why the best leaders know that coaching is about people, not position. Whether you're coaching athletes, leading a team, or raising children, this conversation is packed with simple yet powerful ideas to help you develop people with greater intention. About Mike Sell Mike Sell is Co-Director of LTP (Live to Play) Academy and Director of the LTP Pro Program. A former ATP Tour professional, Mike reached career-high rankings of World No. 136 in singles and No. 83 in doubles before building an outstanding coaching career at every level of the game. He has coached some of tennis's biggest names, including Serena Williams, John Isner, Tommy Paul, Reilly Opelka, Donald Young, and Monica Seles, and served as Lead National Coach for the USTA and Assistant Coach for the U.S. Olympic Team at the 2012 London Games, where Team USA won three gold medals and one bronze. A four-time All-American at the University of Georgia and recipient of the Arthur Ashe Sportsmanship and Leadership Award, Mike is passionate about developing players and coaches alike, with a coaching philosophy centered on knowing the person before coaching the player.
