Episode description

There was a ‘morning after the two nights before’ feeling about Saturday at the US Open as most of the singles matches finished in straight sets and the big names avoided the upsets. Catherine, David and Matt discuss the setting up of Jasmine Paolini vs Karolina Muchova, statement performances from Jannik Sinner and Daniil Medvedev, VAR controversy involving Beatriz Haddad Maia and Anna Kalinskaya, and Iga Swiatek's progress. Plus, Botic van de Zandschulp reverts to type, we're proud of The Best Player In The World, Caroline Wozniacki's jacket is discussed, and there's a treat for you at the end of the show from David's interview with Jack Draper.
