Italy winning BJK Cup is its own kind of throwback … but man, I really wanted to see the doubles of that one.

Team USA came up short, but American Rajeev Ram was arguably the biggest winner this weekend in Delray 🇺🇸 I wrote about why this was such a huge win for Rajeev (and doubles) given his surprisingly complicated Davis Cup journey these last few years.

So sorry this took so long! NEW: "The Corporate Sleaze" The USO is over and we're left with a lingering ick about that orange guy and how the USTA handled it. Of course, we also talk Carlos and Aryna's big wins, commentating outside the lines, and actually protecting women in sport

Thanks for your patience as we finished up our US Open wrap! One of our birthdays coincided with Rolex inviting a certain president to the tournament, and we conscientiously objected. Aryna Sabalenka ...

✅Coco Gauff (Roland Garros) ✅Iga Swiatek (Wimbledon) ✅Aryna Sabalenka (US Open) the WTA top 3 all hold grand slam titles this year I don’t want to hear anything about how the WTA has no consistency, these women each hold multiple slam titles in a very competitive tour! & the best is yet to come🫶🏻

Poor Amanda’s devastated. But, jeezus, what a year it’s been! Going from the hard moment in her last major only to come back and make another major final instead of shrinking. That’s so courageous. ❤️🎾

I said yesterday, this is a rare matchup that Sabalenka can play well and not win. Most players she plays, if she's playing well, it's good enough every time, but Anisimova is able to dictate play, as she's doing so far. Already 11 winners from Amanda. Anisimova leads *3-2.

Both those matches were worthy finals. And we get another round of boom boom tennis on Saturday. Amanda holds a 6-3(!) record over Aryna. Beat her just two months ago in the Wimbledon semifinals.

this match is kinda peak WTA drama so it’s deserving of a 3rd set (to the dismay of my sleepiness)
