Served with Andy Roddick

Andy Roddick and Producer Mike break down the "absurd" reality of Djokovic’s dominance as he joins an elite club of only six players to ever win 100 matches at a single Slam. We also dive into the Day 2 carnage, including Felix Auger-Aliassime’s bizarre retirement against Nuno Borges, Emma Navarro falling to Linette, and the fan-love that Alexandra Eala received on-site.
