Maxime Cressy and Aryna Sabalenka excellent on court on Saturday, and they were arguably even better in the interview room afterwards. Catherine and Matt went to meet them both. The chat with Cressy is in today's pod, and Matt's grilling of Sabalenka can be found in today's newsletter (link to receive it below). There's also chat about Marin Cilic vs. Andrey Rublev, Clara Tauson vs. Danielle Collins and much more.

Catherine, David and Matt are together to talk through the biggest stories from Day 2, which was headlined by Emma Raducanu’s win over Sloane Stephens and Andy Murray’s victorious return to the John Cain Arena after THAT retirement video three years ago.

Elsewhere, there’s chat about the Nick Kyrgios show and our feeling towards it, Liam Broady’s rainbow laces, a shock defeat for Leylah Fernandez, Aryna Sabalenka’s serving yips, a battle for Felix Aguer-Aliassime, and an emotional win for Sam Stosur which extended her singles career.

Emma Raducanu is the US Open champion. At 18, on just her second Grand Slam appearance, she qualified and went all the way to the title without dropping a set. There's never been anything else like it in tennis.

At the end of an incredible night, Catherine and Matt react to her 6-4 6-3 win over Leylah Fernandez, the high-quality tennis on display, the feeling of joy it elicited, the extraordinary post-match speech by Fernandez, and why it's a moment beyond compare.

Looking ahead to the men's final, is Daniil Medvedev ready to win his first major title? And will The Grand Slam being on the line make Novak Djokovic unstoppable?

We also run through all the results and stories from the doubles and wheelchair events.
