After a crazy couple of weeks in Queens, the US Open has come to an end. We relive and recap the feats of Emma Raducanu and Daniil Medvedev, discuss the former’s teenage dream and the latter’s successful quest to stop history (and make his own history while he was at it). Amidst our discussion of the finals arise conversations around the love New York showed for Novak, how the media portrays young female athletes, the long-awaited crack at the Big 3 generation, and Emma and Leylah’s ability to bring star power and major attention to tennis (the women’s final had more TV viewers than the men’s final!) We also discuss the history made in wheelchair tennis, with de Groot, Alcott, Hewett, and Reid completing Golden and Calendar slams left, right, and center. And of course, in true HOTYR fashion, stick around for some laughs and tea as we discuss the Met Gala, Simona Halep’s wedding, and Daniil’s iconic dead fish moment.
