Wimbledon Recap Show

![]() | Wimbledon Recap Show Chris Eubanks joins Served to help recap everything that unfolded during this year’s Wimbledon. The conversation begins with how the sport has evolved, before shifting to the strategic dominance of Jannik Sinner and Iga Swiatek. Plus, Andy asks Chris if the rise of the “New 2” is deflating to other players on tour, and they explain why it’s OK to be patient with rising stars. They also breakdown the All England Club’s proposed expansion plans. |

Iga Swiatek and Jannik Sinner won their first Wimbledon titles over the weekend, each becoming the first player from Poland and Italy, respectively, to lift a singles trophy at the All England Club.
That historic moment is starting to sink in for Swiatek, who ended the tournament on a 20-game winning streak and became the first woman to win a major final 6-0, 6-0 since 1988.
I just did my job, you know? I wasn’t really counting. Honestly, in the last match I tried not to focus on the score. The main goal was to just keep working, not really taking anything for granted. When you’re leading that way, it’s easy to take your foot off the gas pedal. I just really focused on every point.
The 24-year-old is now 6-0 in major finals and can complete the Career Grand Slam at next year’s Australian Open. Sinner, 23, could do the same on the clay in Paris in 2026.
Andy and Chris explain how the champions executed their strategies to perfection and why they present matchup problems.
Eubanks also shares what it’s like playing Sinner in Slams and why it’s so hard to serve against him.
Despite their recent success, both Swiatek and Sinner overcame their own mental hurdles at the All England Club. Swiatek bounced back after a difficult clay-court season to win a major on what was once her weakest surface.
Meanwhile, Sinner got revenge against Carlos Alcaraz after last month’s crushing loss in the Roland-Garros final.
It feels emotional because only me and the people who are close to me know exactly what we have been through on and off the court, and it has been everything except easy.
Andy and Chris discuss how hard it is to mentally reset after tough losses even for top players who have won multiple majors.
Maybe their redemption stories were brought up during the traditional Champions Dinner on Sunday?

It was a weekend full of debut champions at the All England Club. Ziying Wang became the first Chinese player to win a Grand Slam wheelchair singles title and also won the women’s wheelchair doubles trophy.
Julian Cash and Lloyd Glasspool became the first British pair in 89 years to win the men’s doubles trophy at Wimbledon.
Sem Verbeek claimed his first major title in mixed doubles at SW19, playing with Katerina Siniakova who won her first Slam in mixed doubles.
Ivan Ivanov took home the boys’ singles title, becoming the first Bulgarian to win a junior Slam since Grigor Dimitrov at the US Open in 2008.

Did you notice a difference in how players moved on grass this year? Andy and Chris sure did.
They explain why the sport has shifted “massively” in recent years and try to make sense of how players are pulling off some of the shots we saw last week.
As someone who competed at Wimbledon this year, Eubanks shares what he saw at SW19 and explains why sports is all about copycatting.
In a related conversation, Andy asks Chris if the rise of the “New 2” has deflated the confidence of the rest of the tour in this post-Big 3 era.
Eubanks also reminds us to have patience with rising stars, like Joao Fonseca, who still need time to develop, like Sinner and Alcaraz once did.
