In this episode, Andy Roddick and the crew break down Jannik Sinner’s Paris Masters title and what it means for the year-end No.1 race. We dig into the FAA vs. Musetti Turin bubble and celebrate Vicky Mboko’s breakthrough and marathon season. Andy and JW spotlight Aryna Sabalenka’s week-to-week No.1 run, her resilience, and how late-season dynamics differ for Alcaraz and Sinner.
