Who Will Shock the World? (USO23 Draw Review)
Listen now
Description
We’re back again! After a hiatus because we’re not actually that serious, Miranda and Katie are back to talk about the US Open draw before it starts! Naturally, we’ve waited until the very last second to make our predictions. And surprise, we’re actually in the same room together! We talk about Andrey’s new ATP profile picture, Holger Rune’s lack of odd workout videos, and the exciting potential for a Janlitos (Jannik Sinner & Carlos Alcaraz, for the uninitiated) quarterfinal!  Miranda commits to her semifinalists and finalists in real-time. And because we can never end an episode without something a little bonkers, we talk about Miranda’s conspiracy theory involving Formula One driver Lance Stroll’s billionaire father and the potential expansion of the ATP Tour into Saudi Arabia. Savor this episode because you never know when we’ll be back 😉 New to tennis or trying to get a friend into the sport?
