The US Open 2025 is over and the Champions have been crowned, Carlos Alcaraz and Aryna Sabalenka! It all happened in New York, from Polish CEO Piotr Szczerek stealing a hat from a child and making global headlines to Naomi Osaka turning up with blinged out Labubu's for every match. We also saw Taylor Townsend make headlines for all the right reasons and Jelena Ostapenko for all the wrong reasons as well as Novak Djokovic making it to four semifinals at majors this year!

So as is tradition after two weeks of daily coverage, the Tennis Weekly team reunites in truly global fashion across three time zones (Spain, Greece, and the UK!) for a special US Open wrap-up episode. In this bonus pod, Joel, Kim, and Chris reflect on their own personal highs, lows, and biggest surprises from Flushing Meadows using their Peak, Pit & Pleasant Surprise scorecard. From jaw-dropping comebacks and unexpected breakthroughs and some shocking fashion faux-pas (or should that be haircuts), we cover it all.

We also debate have our Tennis weekly awards to dish out for our own Best matches of the tournament, Biggest upsets, Who has the most room for improvement and our 2026 Australian Open “ones to watch”. Let us know who you think should win in these hotly contested categories and what your own favourite moments from the US Open were!
