Hi, this is Billie Jean King. This is Mary and Bartoli. I'm Matt Vellander. This is Mary

Carillo. This is Pam Shriver. This is Yannick Noah and you're listening to the tennis podcast.

Hello lovely listeners. It is Catherine here and I'm sad to say I am on my own.

David's on holiday. Not sad to say that. He's having a lovely time swanning around Croatia with

his family. That was always in the plan but Matt and I were supposed to be recording a podcast

for you today and we were very much looking forward to it but unfortunately Matt is a bit

under the weather. He's fine but he's not up to podcasting today. Billie Jean has just sent her

well wishes to him in the form of a high five. I'll pop that video on Instagram for anybody

that wants to see it. So no podcast today. I'm afraid other than this little monologue from me,

we will be doing one this week. Don't worry we won't let you down. We've got an agenda already.

There is lots to talk about. In the meantime, if you need your fix, I highly recommend you go to

our Twitter feed where we have linked to a clip of Anzheber hitting the most extraordinary shot

on route to winning the title against Blinder Benchich in the Charleston final. It's a front on

tweener and it is well worth your time. It should give you that little tennis hit to keep you going

until we are able to bring you a weekly tennis podcast. I'm not going to put a time frame on it

because I don't want Matt to feel under pressure but we will be bringing you a pod this week. I

promise you that and we'll be wrapping up Charleston. There was a WTA event in Bogota this week. The

ATP have been in Houston, Marrakesh and Estaril where Casparoude won the title. So maybe you should

just go into our archive and listen to one of the many other shows that we've done after Casparoude

has won ATP 250 titles. We're in some repeat on that front but no, in all seriousness, thank you

for bearing with us. We look forward to coming to you later in the week and most importantly,

get well soon to Matt.
