207: Alcaraz Returns, Sinner Out, Fils & Gauff Triumph | EP 207
About this episode
Tune in Thursday for an interview with US Open Wildcard, Jack Kennedy!
On this episode of Nothing Major, the guys recap Cincinnati as Artur Fils powers to his first Masters title over Frances Tiafoe, including a wild 6-0 third set, and discuss why the event felt wide open without Sinner and Alcaraz. They also hit on Brandon Nakashima’s continued hard-court surge, Tommy Paul’s win over Zverev, and what it all means heading into New York.
On the women’s side, Coco Gauff beats Jessie Pegula in a dominant final and the group debates whether Coco is now the favorite for the US Open. Plus, they break down the latest US Open news, including Alcaraz officially returning and teaming with Serena Williams in mixed doubles, Sinner pulling out, wild cards, Kyrgios controversy, and a few chaotic off-court stories.
