US Open Draws - Is this America’s time?

Catherine Whitaker, David Law and Matt Roberts are together inside the Arthur Ashe Stadium to react to the US Open singles draws.

Part one - Women’s draw. We all picked Coco Gauff as our favourite to win the title, so has the draw changed things? We discuss Gauff’s potential route, analyse whether we think Aryna Sabalenka can rediscover her best form, and consider if Naomi Osaka could be in for another deep run.

Part two - Men’s draw (28:47). In the absence of Jannik Sinner, who will benefit? We react to the hand Carlos Alcaraz has been dealt as he returns from injury, discuss the prospects of the leading American men including Ben Shelton, Taylor Fritz and Frances Tiafoe, and debate Novak Djokovic’s chances of winning a 25th major.

Part three (55:45) - We look ahead to some exciting round one matches, including Matteo Berrettini vs Stan Wawrinka.
