Summary
Alex de Minaur and Katie Boulter are tennis' latest power couple after they both won 500 events in Acapulco and San Diego respectively. Catherine, David and Matt discuss the improvements to their games and how high they could go. Elsewhere, there's a similar conversation about Ugo Humbert after he picked up yet another title, this time in Dubai. We also give our takes on Andrey Rublev's disqualification, news that the Saudi PIF have struck a multi million dollar partnership with the ATP, Andy Murray's quotes about retirement, Maria Sakkari joining forces with David Witt, and the Netflix Slam in Las Vegas between Rafael Nadal and Carlos Alcaraz.
