Episode 2026 Roland Garros Round 2 Recap, Sinner's SHOCKING Loss | Something Major | EP 178
John, Sam, Stevie, and special guest Caroline Wozniacki react to one of the biggest upsets EVER at a Major, as Jannik Sinner completely collapses from 6-3, 6-2, 5-1 up against Juan Manuel Cerundolo in the Paris heat.
The boys debate the controversial mid match timeout and whether heat might genuinely be Sinner’s biggest weakness, leading to a full discussion on genetics, body cooling, acclimation, and what he may need to change long term to survive brutal Slam conditions.
Elsewhere at French Open, Frances Tiafoe survives Hubert Hurkacz in five and celebrates by ripping the shirt off, Moise Kouame turns Lenglen into complete chaos, and Jakub Menšík wins a 13-11 fifth set breaker while cramping so badly he leaves the court in a wheelchair.
Plus: João Fonseca’s comeback, Novak Djokovic keeping the “25” dream alive, and the Alejandro Davidovich Fokina coaching split becoming the messiest storyline in Paris.
On the women’s side, Elena Rybakina suffers the biggest upset of Round 2, Serena Williams comeback rumors start flying again, and the crew closes with Round 3 predictions, bracket standings, and a looming punishment for whoever finishes last.
