Summary
As the Miami Open reaches the closing stages, Catherine Whitaker and David Law catch up to discuss the tournament’s major storylines from the second week so far:
- Why are David and Catherine surprised by how excited they are about Sebastian Korda’s potential?
- How does Roberto Bautista Agut cause Daniil Medvedev problems every time they face off?
- Was Stefanos Tsitsipas correct when he called his defeat to Hubert Hurkacz a ‘self explosion’?
- Why is Jannik Sinner Catherine’s candidate to be the future metronomic winner of titles?
- How well has Ash Barty been playing en route to her second straight Miami final?
- Could the moment Maria Sakkari saved six match points against Jessica Pegula be a turning point in her career?
- What on earth happened for Naomi Osaka to lose a 6-0 set as well as her 23-match winning streak?
- And how has Dan Evans made his way into the doubles final?
The Tennis Podcast is presented by Catherine Whitaker and David Law, and features Matt Roberts. It is produced on Mondays and Thursdays, and daily during the Grand Slam tournaments.

| 0:00.0 | Hi, this is Billie Jean King. This is Mary and Bartorri. I'm Matt Svillander. This is Mary |
| 0:04.8 | Carillo. I'm San Roenca. I'm Lighten Hutt. This is Yannick Noah and you're listening to the tennis |
| 0:09.8 | podcast. |
| 0:21.1 | Well it's 117 AM and Sebastian Corder and André Rublevich has just got onto the court as we |
| 0:27.6 | come to you. Catherine is home from her shift at Prime Video. Matt's been sent to bed. Actually, |
| 0:34.0 | he's not, he's just listening to this because he's going to edit it in a bit. It would be too loud |
| 0:40.0 | in his house. He'd wake up the whole house if he was on the show. So Catherine and me are going to do it. |
| 0:44.7 | Catherine is equipped with a beer in one hand and a glass of wine in the other, which has got my |
| 0:52.4 | respect. So Catherine, you've gone up in my estimation. How you doing? When you have to wait |
| 0:57.6 | to 1 AM for your first drink, it's like when you go to the supermarket when you're hungry and you just |
| 1:05.0 | buy a year's of live crisps. That's the alcohol equivalent of that has happened to me tonight. |
| 1:10.4 | Yeah, is it one of those where you sort of put the crisps in your trolley and you start eating them |
| 1:15.3 | before you're paid for them? I'm out of shoplift today. Did that woman always get it? |
| 1:23.4 | Is that a thing? I've done that a few times. Anyway, let's start with Sebastian Kordeshowe |
| 1:30.9 | because he's just got onto the court against Honoury Rueblev. I understand that by the time you |
| 1:34.8 | all listen to this, he's probably lost 1, 6, 1, 6. But anyway, even if he has, he's still at a heck |
| 1:40.7 | of a week. I don't know about you, but I think this is the first week that I've seen a full tennis |
| 1:47.6 | match of his from start to finish and really grasped what he's all about. I'm massively excited |
| 1:55.5 | about him. I think I'm as excited about him as anybody that I've seen in men's tennis for a year or two. |
| 2:06.0 | Yeah, I think I am too. I really wasn't expecting to say that my fault for not knowing enough about |
| 2:15.4 | Sebastian Kordes to know how exciting he is. I think I thought, oh, the hook there is that |
| 2:21.2 | his dad's Peter Korde and he've also got the hook of, you know, him being from such an illustrious |
