The tournament of tournaments has finally arrived, and Rog and Rory Smith are here to break it all down on Night Cup. First, Mexico open with a one-sided victory over South Africa in front of a raucous home crowd. Then, Korea come from behind to snatch three points from Czechia. Are the Koreans now all but assured a round of 32 birth? Plus, New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani joins Rog to discuss his earliest tournament memories, New York City hot spots, and what to expect from the summer ahead.
