Christina McHale and Leif Shiras join the show to discuss a wild week in the tennis world, which saw Jannik Sinner win the Cincinnati Masters and reveal that he was cleared of any wrongdoing after testing positive for a banned substance. The broadcasters try to make sense of the situation, and discuss the ramifications on the sport. McHale & Shiras also dive into Sabalenka's supreme tennis, Jessica Pegula's consistency, and why Frances Tiafoe continues to captivate the masses. And the commentators examine the action taking place in Monterrey, Winston Salem and Cleveland, as the players make their final preparations before next week's US Open.
And on the tail end of this episode, we have three exclusive interviews from the WTA Event in Cleveland, "Tennis In The Land." Rising American McCartney Kessler discusses her journey to the Top 100, being coached by her brother, and how she's progressed through the pro game. Jessica Bouzas Maneiro chats about her Spanish fighting spirit, appreciating her support system, and her breakthrough win at Wimbledon this year over the defending champion. And Clara Burel dives into trusting the process, testing herself against the game's best, and setting realistic goals. Hosted by Mitch Michals.
