Episode 17 of the Tennis Abstract Podcast, with Carl Bialik, is our US Open recap. We start with a discussion of Sloane Stephens–her performance here as well as what we expect from her, and we delve into possible explanations of her impressive performance in particular against aggressive players.
We then talk Nadal and his no-nonsense strategy to defeat Kevin Anderson, and consider best-case scenarios for the rest of Kev’s career. We finish up with some doubles and a bit on this weekend’s Davis Cup ties. As always, thanks for listening!
