We're recording in the car again, chatting about the semis and finals, answering more listener questions, and talking through some issues around race, journalism, and access.

It is really funny how easily the way things turn in sports. It has just been a year, but Ashley Barty's surprise run at Cincinnati in 2017 is now buried as just a history for the Australian tennis star. During last year, Venus Williams was pretty much not on her usual self and her usual form. But, this year, though things could not be worse than ever, the stars are beginning to align once again their proper places as her sister, Serena, is back on tour once again. There are always surprises in tennis, for sure, but I guess those who stay consistently atop are the ones who are the greatest.
