Joel and Kim are here to catch up on the second round action from Flushing Meadows in New York City, with the US Open now well underway in the hot, hot heat.

Frances Tiafoe and Ben Shelton have made their way through to setting up a highly anticipated US Open rematch in the 3rd round after their comfortable wins in the round of 64. Meanwhile, top seeds Novak Djokovic and Jannik Sinner safely progress, with Djokovic clocking up yet another milestone with 90 match wins now achieved at each of the 4 Grand Slams.

With Wimbledon Champion Barbora Krejickova ousted by Elena-Gabriela Ruse, and Karolina Pliskova retiring after 3 points against Jasmine Paolini, it hasn’t been the best of days for the Czech ladies. Harriet Dart and Katie Boulter also bow out, leaving no British women in the third round.

Joel and Kim also touch upon the epic first round encounter between Dan Evans and Karen Khachanov which has become the longest ever match in US Open history, and reflect on Emma Raducanu’s disappointing US Open and what has contributed to her poor result here yet again.
