Description

The Tennis Podcast team had their work cut out to sum up an extraordinary day in which 87 singles matches were played to catch up after the rain on Day 3, but Catherine Whitaker and David Law have done exactly that in their latest daily show from the US Open in New York. Kyle Edmund overcame American Steve Johnson in straight sets and now faces 18-year-old Denis Shapovalov in the 3rd round. That match will take place in the bottom half of the draw - which is increasingly looking like a land of opportunity with the loss of so many big names. The latest name to add to the list was 20-year-old Alexander Zverev of whom so much was expected. How much of a shock was his demise at the hands of Borna Coric? And does it raise question marks over his ability to deliver on the biggest stage?What did the podcast team make of the latest performance by Maria Sharapova, who fought her way into the third round with a 3-set win? And why did Nick Kyrgios fall short again? Is he ever going to work out how to fulfil his enormous potential?A new edition of The Tennis Podcast will be available to download after play every day during the US Open. Presented by broadcasters Catherine Whitaker (Eurosport, BBC 5 Live) and David Law (BBC 5 Live, BT Sport), it is produced weekly throughout the year, and daily at the Grand Slam tournaments, in association with Telegraph Sport and Eurosport.  See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.
