US Open Day 11 - Bad, Bizarre, Brilliant: Women’s semis reviewed; Men’s semis preview

Women's semi-final night at the US Open has delivered guaranteed drama in recent years, and Thursday night was no exception. Catherine, David and Matt discuss Aryna Sabalenka's mental resilience to come back from 0-6 down to win despite all her Grand Slam baggage, whether Madison Keys will have any regrets despite a great performance, how Coco Gauff vs Karolina Muchova went from horror show to absolute thriller, and the climate protest which interrupted play for more than 45 minutes. Our men's semi final preview includes a lovely chat between David and Bryan Shelton, father of Ben.
