On-court interviewer & journalist Nick McCarvel joins the podcast to recap the 2022 US Open, which saw Carlos Alcaraz & Iga Swiatek claim the trophies. McCarvel explains how Alcaraz was able to ascend to the top of the game at such a young age, what he brings on-court that is unmatched, and where he goes from his title in New York. He also discusses how Swiatek rounded into form at the perfect time, the terrific run of Ons Jabeur, and mentions other players who made a lasting impression at the US Open such as Frances Tiafoe.

But at the top of the show, Mitch shares his initial reaction to the news that Roger Federer will be retiring from tennis after the Laver Cup in London.
