On this Monday episode of Nothing Major, Sam, John, and Stevie recap Arthur Fils winning Barcelona over Andrey Rublev and debate how much of a threat Fils is on clay, then break down Ben Shelton’s Munich title and what it means for Americans on European clay.

They cover Elena Rybakina defending her Stuttgart crown and discuss whether the win boosts her Roland Garros chances, then shift to major news with Carlos Alcaraz’s wrist injury forcing him out of Madrid, plus a wave of other Madrid withdrawals and frustration with the event’s expanded format. The guys also share a stat on college ties among ATP top-50 players, joke about other pods “cooking the books,” and tease an upcoming interview with Terence Atmane.
