Everyone, welcome to QuickServe brought to you by ServiceNow. Oh, yes. We are in the Cadillac studio. We are shooting QuickServe from an Escalade IQ.

**SPEAKER_4** (1:35)
Unbelievable.

**Andy Roddick** (1:37)
Tecky Sean, Tecabowl, you built a studio into a car.

**SPEAKER_4** (1:42)
Yeah, it is unbelievable.

**Andy Roddick** (1:44)
There's a lot of buttons back there. I don't know what they're called.
What are they? Is that a transmografer? That's close. Is that connected to the phalange? Yes, it is actually.

**SPEAKER_4** (1:53)
Man, if you're listening to this episode, please go on to YouTube and see what we're currently doing. This is Cash Cab, but US Open Edition.

**Andy Roddick** (2:00)
Yeah, Tecky Sean's literally built a full studio with lighting and everything else into the back of a Cadillac Escalade IQ.

**SPEAKER_4** (2:09)
We're supposed to point out that this car has an AKG studio reference audio system with Dolby Atmos. But I got to be honest, this whole studio is just running off of the car's plugs.
It has regular plugs. We are currently in an electric car running this studio off the car's electric.

**Andy Roddick** (2:26)
I'm so happy.

**SPEAKER_4** (2:27)
It's unbelievable.

**Andy Roddick** (2:27)
This is so great.

**SPEAKER_4** (2:28)
This is, it's...

**Andy Roddick** (2:30)
So currently we are driving home from Arthur SJDM. You could probably see the rain or hear it maybe in our car studio.
This is insane. But I guess we have to get to tennis at some point. Yeah, it's being played. Matches on the outside of Ash, as we're shooting this, are currently suspended. Novak's match is at three all in the third set. He is being made to work by Navone. He has spent a lot of time on court, which I was at the ESPN desk before we got into our car studio. And I just said, this is what he wants to avoid. He does not want these knockdown drag out four hours on court. The good news is it's not hot. He has two days after this.
But as it stands currently, struggling a little bit, we'll see which way this one goes. Hopefully, we'll have another update as we get through the matches, which we'll run through now. Jess Pagula, I thought, looked good today.
Pretty straightforward over Rusei. Said she was very nervous. That happens at the US Open, especially on the American side. She is one of four women that has a chance to be number one in the world. It looks like it will probably be Rabakina. I think Coco, Jess and Sabalenka all have to win the tournament. Rabakina kind of just needs to, one, be healthy. If she makes semis, it's a wrap. She's number one in the world, irrespective of if any of the other three win. But Pagula rolled, had 14 break chances in the first set of her match, converted two.
You want to break at a higher percentage, but you also had 14 break chances, which is very good. Svitolina rolled one and two. Paolini had not played since Wimbledon, so she struggled up to Wimbledon, made the quarters there. You're thinking maybe she turns her year round. Got through in three sets. Kostiuk rolled. She had her dogs in the match, did you see it?

**SPEAKER_4** (4:24)
Yeah, I did.
