Chaos! It’s happening! One wild night on Arthur Ashe Stadium turned into two as Novak Djokovic followed Carlos Alcaraz out of the tournament. Catherine, David and Matt react to Djokovic's performance which he described as one of his worst ever, praise Alexei Popyrin for the biggest win of his career, and analyse what it means for the rest of the draw. Elsewhere, there's the customary Grand Slam rant about the scheduling as Aryna Sabalenka and Ekaterina Alexandrova walked onto court at past midnight and much discussion of big wins for Frances Tiafoe and Coco Gauff.
