About this episode
The summer swing is heating up—literally. Anastasia recaps the finals of the Cincinnati Open, where Iga Swiatek battled Jasmine Paolini for the women’s title and Jannik Sinner faced off against Carlos Alcaraz in yet another chapter of their growing rivalry.
But this episode isn’t just about the scorelines. Anastasia dives into the best and worst moments from a week that had it all:
- 🎾 Best: Terence Atmane making waves, Ella Siegel’s rise, and Iga’s unforgettable “Wicked” press conference.
- ☕ Worst: $7 coffee and the unbearable #CincyOven heat wave that tested both players and fans.
From thrilling tennis to off-court quirks, this is your full Cincinnati Open wrap-up before the road heads to New York and the US Open.
