Welcome back to…. Part Four of a Four-Part US Open preview edition of Hey, Great Shot!! On this episode, Cracked Racquets writer Matt Stachowiak makes his triumphant return to the podcast to help hosts Alex Gruskin and Max Rothman breakdown Alex Zverev’s quarter of the draw.


They discuss the quarter’s biggest contenders, best young prospects, likeliest candidates for upsets, and the chances of the American players in the section. The guys argue over the upside of #NextGenATP stars Alex De Minaur, Frances Tiafoe, debate the chances of a Gael Monfils run, and discuss Alex Zverev’s tremendous opportunity to make a run in this event. Stachowiak also makes his predictions for upset candidates, sleepers, last American player standing, and US Open men’s singles champion.
