Bulldog and Friends

Tennis Mania at the US Open!

Episode Notes

This week, Bulldog and Friends travels to New York City for a front-row seat at the US Open! Todd and Kathy Buller bring listeners along for the energy, the atmosphere, and the stories of fans who make this tournament one of the greatest in sports.

 From first-time visitors to lifelong tennis devotees, fans share their favorite tennis memories, the players who inspired them—from Björn Borg and Chris Evert to Rafael Nadal and Novak Djokovic—and their dream destinations among the four majors.

Highlights include:

• Meeting Carrie, whose love of Björn Borg inspired her to pick up a racket.
• Mrs. Robinson, a veteran fan, reminiscing about Chris Evert and Martina Navratilova in the 1980s.
• Sean, who has attended since the 1990s, reliving the classic Agassi–Sampras rivalry.
• Jill, a seasoned regular who still dreams of Wimbledon.
• Sandra, who started playing tennis during COVID and now calls herself “obsessed.”
• Kathy Buller’s first impressions of the US Open, comparing it with her experiences at Wimbledon and Roland Garros.

The episode closes with reflections on the incredible mixed doubles final, the electric atmosphere at Arthur Ashe Stadium, and the joy of sharing it all as part of the Bulldog and Friends community.
