I wasn’t looking for anything. I was just pressing the remote on a random Tuesday when I hit a live tennis match. Thirteen shots into a rally, my mind went quiet for the first time in months.

I am more excited for the men's @usopen final today between @BenShelton and @AlexZverev than I am for the start NFL season! It could be the fact that I am a lifelong @nyjets fan, but I hope they prove me wrong this season!
Who do you have winning the women's US Open final today @jessicaschiffer? You give such great behind the scenes insight and have a sublime feel for the mental side of the game. Polar opposite personalities.
Watched Tiafoe-Shelton match last night and kept thinking about the first post of my Substack.
Neither guy got there clean — plenty of missed chances first. Showing up for the next one anyway is the whole game, on the court and off it.
