New-look Osaka "back to best”, Mboko momentum, will Novak's US Open gamble pay off?
Season 7 Episode 44
Big titles are up for grabs in Canada, with local teenager Victoria Mboko to face a resurgent Naomi Osaka in the Montreal final. Meanwhile at Toronto, the absence of Jannik Sinner, Carlos Alcaraz and Novak Djokovic has left the door open for 11th seed Karen Khachanov, who's locked in a showdown with in-form American Ben Shelton. Experts Daria Saville, Simon Rea and Matt Trollope join Xave to discuss all the big stories from north of the American border before the tours move to the US. Novak Djokovic is rolling the dice by skipping the lead-in tournaments to the US Open — the panel debates whether the gamble will pay off in his bid for a record 25th major title. Plus, we celebrate some recent successes for The Tennis family including Australian TV Week Logie Awards for Todd Woodbridge and Jelena Dokic.
