We're in the Cadillac studio again. I'm kind of just getting used to it now. Yeah. Escalade IQ.
Mike (Producer Mike) 0:31
We're not wearing our seat belts because we're not moving. You can see. There's stuff still. But you know what is still in this car is the AKG Studio Reference sound system with Dolby Atmos, which gives you an immersive audio experience. You know how many speakers apparently it is in this setup to give you that experience?
Andy Roddick 0:49
How? How many?
Mike (Producer Mike) 0:50
38, which is also the number of wins in the US Open Irina Sabalenka had in her career heading into today's match
Andy Roddick 1:00
against
Mike (Producer Mike) 1:00
Noskova. Look at that.
Andy Roddick 1:02
Look at you.
Mike (Producer Mike) 1:03
Look at that. The Cadillac Escalade IQ.
Andy Roddick 1:05
Pretty smart. Great through line right to Sabalenka and Noskova. That was good. All right. So it's like, I don't know, 1230 at night, almost 1 in the morning. I have the day match tomorrow. on ESPN. So currently Alcaraz won the first set. It is one all in the second set. And we'll get to that and kind of first thoughts on the, on the set. But like, let's say, I mean, we might as well go with the person.
Mike (Producer Mike) 1:35
Let's go in order because that's the reason why this match is currently happening right now. Cause everything just 38 stacked 39 now at the U S open. It's what the stats say. She's won seven, but I mean... 30, she is 39 and eight. That's what the stat says on
Andy Roddick 1:54
Tennis Abstract. That's a lot of wins. Yeah, tell, who is it? And just say it out loud.
Mike (Producer Mike) 1:59
Tennisabstract.com.
Andy Roddick 2:00
So if they're, okay, so we're not wrong. They're wrong. Yeah. Okay, great. Sabalenka needed to win a tight match. Like this was... Perfect. That and Noskova's really good. Like, wins Wimbledon, comes in, gives Sabalenka hell. But for all the worry, which was valid, coming in with Sabalenka, no form, you know, the weird loss to Schneider at the Roland Garros when she kind of just deconstructed completely and Naomi taking her out of Wimbledon and, you know, loss in Canada, loss in Cincinnati to Bielek. Lot of questions around her, and what does she do when she gets to New York? Gets to the semis. Beats an informed player. Needed to win a tight match like this. I think this was a really good thing for her going into the semifinals.
Andy Roddick 2:55
Noskoba is going to be, I mean, she's already obviously already won Wimbledon this year, but like right back in the next slam in the mix again. So I think that's going to serve her well over time. Emma Navarro takes the first set against Jess Pagula and Pagula just kind of works her way back over the course of. the night and she's kind of just getting through it's what she always does
Mike (Producer Mike) 3:17
yeah
Andy Roddick 3:18
yeah
Mike (Producer Mike) 3:18
she was four and oh leading and heading this match
Andy Roddick 3:21
over
Mike (Producer Mike) 3:21
emma now five and oh
Andy Roddick 3:23
yep
Mike (Producer Mike) 3:24
there's something to that matchup yeah you know where i just jess always seems to just stick around
Andy Roddick 3:30
yeah
Mike (Producer Mike) 3:31
maintain like this this even emotion and and just
Andy Roddick 3:35
just win and she fought through it because she let the first set go there's a game she had three doubles two in the net and then sailed one. So she was kind of looking at her box a little bit, but Leila Fernandez down the first set. Navarro loses the first set. She's showing some metal kind of getting through. I don't think she's actually gotten to her best tennis yet. I think we're giving her a lot of credit for the lead in stuff. So I think she's going to have to level up to beat Sabalenka.

How did Aryna Sabalenka survive Linda Noskova’s challenge?

Andy Roddick 4:02
um but credit to jess like she just she just wins matches is she she's a leader on 200 wins this year
Mike (Producer Mike) 4:07
yeah yeah the uh service now stat of the day is with that win it was her 50th win of the year according to math and the wta website
Andy Roddick 4:16
so wta website has our 45 wins and they add they add the amount of wins after each tournament so i'm not great at math but 45 wins plus five wins here
Mike (Producer Mike) 4:25
that would be
Andy Roddick 4:27
you nailed it You can do basic math.
