About this episode
The US Open is over, and the guys are here to break it all down. Sam, Jack, John, and Steve dive into the men’s and women’s finals and what really decided them.
Carlos Alcaraz overpowered Jannik Sinner with a relentlessness performance that capped off a dominant campaign. Did Sinner ever really have a shot, or was it always Alcaraz’s title to lose? The guys don’t exactly see eye to eye!
In the women’s final, Aryna Sabalenka extended her wild tiebreak streak to 19 straight while taking out Amanda Anisimova. With her first Major of the season, she leaves New York looking every bit the rightful World No. 1.
Off the court, we’ve got Bracket Challenge chaos (guess who’s on the hook for the jingle?) and even some unsolicited advice for the secret service agents spotted at the Open. We wrap it up with big news about next week’s Red Bull Flugtag!
00:00 Kicking things off!
00:22 Men’s Final Recap: Alcaraz vs. Sinner
03:21 "The entire match was on Alcaraz's racquet"
11:00 Secret service & celebrity sightings in NYC
14:41 Women’s Final Recap: Sabalenka vs. Anisimova
16:41 Sabalenka’s UNREAL tiebreak streak
21:12 Bracket Challenge result & the jingle bet
23:15 Next stop: Red Bull Flugtag madness
24:52 Wrapping it up & what’s next
