Episode 55a: U.S. Open and Shut (Part 1)
from No Challenges Remaining · host No Challenges Remaining Tennis Podcast
Our US Open wrap-up episode is better late than never, Ben and Courtney hope! Episode 55 was recorded the night the tournament ended, but has been delayed by a whole lot of technical difficulties (computers) and biomechanical difficulties (sleepy people). But now that it's here, you'll enjoy it! This episode looks back on the 2013 U.S. Open that was, but also the U.S. Open that wasn't. Why did this tournament feel flat? Flat or not, what do we make of the champions Rafa and Serena? And the runners-up, Djokovic and Azarenka? And what about Serena-Sloane, which was actually awesome? We also discuss the role of scheduling, and some of the breakout players of the tournament. But wait, there's more! Episode 55 was so long that we split it in two, so plan for Episode 55b to be dropping some time later this week. As always, thanks for liking us on Facebook, following us on Twitter, and leaving us reviews on iTunes! And thanks for listening!
