US Open Day 11 - Stephens Stuns Venus Williams; Faces Keys In final; Special Guest Mats Wilander previews Men’s semifinals

US Open Day 11 - Stephens Stuns Venus Williams; Faces Keys In final; Special Guest Mats Wilander previews Men’s semifinals

Tennis will have a new Grand Slam champion after two of the most exciting, talented young players in the sport reached the US Open women’s final.


Sloane Stephens overcame Venus Williams in a deciding set - one of the best sets of the year, and then Madison Keys hammered Coco Vandeweghe 6-1, 6-2.


So what did The Tennis Podcast team make of it all? Former Top 50 player Jill Craybas joins presenter David Law to assess where the matches were won and lost.


Has the 11-month injury and surgery Stephens endured been a blessing in disguise? Is Keys coming of age two years after Martina Navratilova picked her on The Tennis Podcast to be a future World No.1? And with Williams going down in a third big Grand Slam match of the year, does a player’s nerve go when he/she gets older.


The Tennis Podcast is also joined by special guest Mats Wilander - a former World No.1 and winner of seven Grand Slam singles titles. He assesses the loss of Roger Federer, and looks ahead to Rafael Nadal vs. Juan Martin del Potro and Pablo Carreno Busta vs. Kevin Anderson.


A new edition of The Tennis Podcast is available to download after play every day during the US Open. Presented by broadcasters Catherine Whitaker (Eurosport, BBC 5 Live) and David Law (BBC 5 Live, BT Sport), it is produced weekly throughout the year, and daily at the Grand Slam tournaments, in association with Telegraph Sport and Eurosport.
