Roland Garros Day 5: Sinner Stunned, Serena is Back! Kouame, Tien & Jovic keep Rolling

Hold onto your rackets — Day Five at Roland Garros just blew the tournament wide open. Jannik Sinner, the world No. 1, is stunned by Juan Manuel Cerundolo in one of the most jaw-dropping collapses you'll ever see. Up 6-3, 6-2, 5-1 — and then gone, losing 18 of the last 20 games. The draw is shattered. The field is wide open. And Petko and Brad Gilbert are live in the booth to make sense of it all. But that's not even the only bombshell. Serena Williams has officially announced her comeback — and she's starting in Queens. The ripple effects across the sport are immediate and immense. Meanwhile, the next generation is making noise: Moïse Kouamé grinds through five gritty sets, Learner Tien saves two match points to survive, and Iva Jovic absolutely dismantles Emma Navarro. The kids are not waiting their turn. Add a war of attrition — five men and three women have already retired, two walkovers, and Fokina's bizarre situation with his coach — and this is a Day Five that will not be forgotten. BG and Petko break it all down, debate what the Sinner loss means for Shelton, Tsitsipas, Zverev, and Novak, and look ahead to a massive Day Six: Djokovic vs. Fonseca, Ruud vs. Tommy Paul, Zverev in action, Jodar rolling, and Iga back on court. We need a nap. But first — this.    🎾 Sinner stunned by Cerundolo in five — was up 6-3, 6-2, 5-1 and lost 18 of the last 20 games  🎾 Wide open draw — what it means for Zverev, Djokovic, Shelton, and Tsitsipas  🎾 Serena is back — official comeback announced, starting in Queens  🎾 War of attrition — 5 men, 3 women retired; two walkovers and counting  🎾 Kouamé guts out a five-set win after being up 2 sets — next gen is real  🎾 Tien saves two match points to advance in five — the drama was insane  🎾 Iva Jovic crushes Navarro 0 and 3 — a statement match  🎾 Women playing night matches — BG has thoughts (the BG Solution)  🎾 Fokina and his coach — what on earth happened there? 🎾 Tomorrow: Djokovic vs. Fonseca | Ruud vs. Tommy Paul | Zverev | Jodar | Iga     🎙️ Hosted by Petko & BG    Watch on the TC App and YouTube.

Day 4 - THE BIG T AT RG: DROPSHOT EDITION - Baptiste Heartbreak, Djokovic Scare & The Legend of '89 Is Back at Roland Garros

Day Four at Roland Garros brings the heat — and the upsets. BG sits down with tennis legend Michael Chang for a deep, wide-ranging conversation recorded right here at the venue where history was made 37 years ago. Then BG and Petko reunite in the booth to break down the day's biggest moments and set the table for what's coming tomorrow. Iga Swiatek survives. Novak grinds through. And in the day's biggest shock, Elena Rybakina falls to Yulia Starodubtseva — while Hailey Baptiste's tournament ends in heartbreak with a serious injury on court. But the centerpiece of Day Four is Michael Chang — the 17-year-old who stunned the sports world at this very address in 1989, becoming the youngest Grand Slam champion in history. A record that has stood for 37 years. Rafa couldn't break it. Alcaraz couldn't break it. Nobody has. BG takes Chang all the way back — the clay, the cramps, the underhand serve against the No. 1 player in the world, and the question nobody had an answer to: why didn't you quit? They go deep on the three Grand Slam finals Chang couldn't close, the six straight years inside the Top 10, and the long road back to the game he loved. And then there's the future: Learner Tien — the 20-year-old Chang is now coaching, and one of the most exciting young players in the game today. What does Chang see in him? How much of a young Michael Chang does he recognize? And the big one — are we ever going to see an American win Roland Garros again? Plus — don't miss tomorrow's American showdown: Iva Jovic vs. Emma Navarro, first on Tennis Channel.   🎾 The legend of '89 — back at the scene of the miracle  🎾 The youngest Grand Slam champion in history. 37 years and counting.  🎾 The cramps, the underhand serve, and why he never quit  🎾 Three Grand Slam finals. All losses. How do you carry that?  🎾 Six straight years in the Top 10 — what kept the engine running? 🎾 Rybakina out. The biggest upset of the tournament so far.  🎾 Hailey Baptiste — a heartbreaking end to her Roland Garros  🎾 Learner Tien — the next American hope, coached by a legend  🎾 The future of American tennis at Roland Garros  🎾 Tomorrow: Iva Jovic vs. Emma Navarro — American showdown on Tennis Channel   🎙️ Hosted by BG & Petko | Guest: Michael Chang   Watch on the TC App. Listen on all major podcast platforms.
