Sam Querrey and John Isner open from Paris after the Roland-Garros semifinals. They recap the first men’s semifinal that never happened after Matteo Arnaldi pulled out with an illness minutes before playing Cobolli, likely worsened by Arnaldi’s heavy time on court.

They then discuss Alexander Zverev beating Jakub Menšík, crediting Zverev’s high first-serve percentage and baseline control, and preview the final with the guys having Zverev as the clear favorite despite slow starts.

Plus they cover the women’s semis: Maya Chwalinska’s dream run continues after defeating Diana Shnaider with crafty variety and Mirra Andreeva routing Marta Kostyuk comfortably to set up an Andreeva vs Chwalinska final.
