Episode 76 of the Tennis Abstract Podcast<\/a>, with Carl Bialik of the Thirty Love podcast<\/a>, reviews the memorable US Open men’s final, featuring a resurgent Daniil Medvedev and a resilient Rafael Nadal, both of whom emptied their tactical toolboxes in Sunday’s five-hour marathon. We cover Nadal’s path to the all-time grand slam lead<\/a>, whether Medvedev can become the tallest #1 of all time, and whether fellow first-time semi-finalist Matteo Berrettini is in the same league as the Russian. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

On the women’s final, we consider whether Serena Williams offered a fair assessment of her own game, and just how high champion Bianca Andreescu can climb. We also touch on Taylor Townsend’s strategic flexibility and Naomi Osaka’s step backward.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
