Jannik Sinner has won his second Grand Slam title, beating Taylor Fritz in straight sets in the US Open final. Catherine, David and Matt discuss the match, the way in which Sinner raised his level for the final while Fritz didn't have his best game, the post match press conference in which Sinner opened up on the struggles of dealing with his positive drugs tests, and what Sinner's victory means for the sport.
