And that’s about the size of it… we are DONE DONE DONE in NYC… off to Asia… but, there are some things to wrap up before we get there… spoilers for those of you who haven’t watched or seen the results… you’re welcome…

The men’s draw… In 2 hours and 23 minutes Alcaraz took down #7 Asshat in straight sets… 6-4. 7-6(4), 6-2… congrats to Alcaraz… he rounds out the first into the finals… Followed by Sinner who took down Auger-Aliassime who was doing well until the third set… I thought it was a bit of danger and the people in Vancouver were super excited… and then the wind disappeared… and the Italia#25 n stepped up… a bit of an injury to work out… but regardless… it was over in 3 hours and 21 minutes… 6-1, 3-6, 6-3, 6-4… Here is you at the end of the semifinals…

The Lady’s draw… hmmmm that is a fun one… Well… Sabalenka need her 2 hours and 5 minutes to oust #4 Pegula of the USA, 4-6, 6-3, 6-4…. and Anisimova took down #23 Osaka of Japan (Kresimir is wrong again), 6-7(4), 7-6(3), 6-3… great fight and grit in almost three hours… great matches… and good for Anisimova and Sabalenka… a repeat of the semis at Wimbledon… and for you… after that round… here is where you stand…

The Finals were also pretty good… I mean… well, better than a swift kick to the head… right? #2 Alcaraz raises the trophy with a win over #1 Sinner, 6-2, 3-6, 6-1, 6-4… Congrats to Alcaraz… and again the boys split the majors… two each… what a delight…

For the ladies… well… #1 Sabalenka takes down #8 Anisimova of the USA in straight sets… and no, it wasn’t a double bagel… SADLY… but… 6-3, 7-6(3)… and that trophy was a second year in a row for Sabalenka… a defense of the trophy after losing in every major to an American… She lifts it high… and how sweet that victory tastes…

FOR YOU… how did this all end… well… good for some… bad for others… we knew that our good friends Phirman and Tim didn’t stand a chance… and other people climbed up on top of all the others, like world war z… so much chaos… but… Kresimir went from the top of both draws… to second in both draws.. to winning the Men’s draw… <GASP>… that wasn’t expected… and Eric held on to win the Women’s draw… not a shocker… he was in the lead with Sabalenka to win the draw… Kotonias followed with a Sabalenka win for second… and that is how it went… Great job from the East Coast… thank you for joining… Denise gets third in the Women’s draw… that’s not a bad showing for the first time… and if Aunt Fran hadn’t dabbled in their understanding of Sinner’s situation… I think the men’s draw would have been very different…
