| 0:00.0 | Hi I'm John McConor and you're listening to the tennis podcast. |
| 0:12.8 | Well hello and welcome to the tennis podcast. It is the end of week one of Wimbledon, |
| 0:18.1 | Catherine Whitaker. I'm David Law and I've been here for BBC Radio 5 Live. I've had the privilege |
| 0:22.8 | to sit in a commentary box, watch tennis all week and talk fast. That's all I want to do, Catherine. |
| 0:27.1 | And you, you, as we sit here on the roof of Wimbledon, it's broadcast centre here, |
| 0:32.8 | I can see the studio in the distance where you've been spending most of your time sitting |
| 0:36.4 | alongside Mats Vellander. And if you don't believe me, go on the tennis podcast Facebook page, |
| 0:42.0 | you'll see a picture of Catherine Whitaker alongside Mats Vellander presenting live at Wimbledon's |
| 0:46.6 | coverage. It's crushingly disappointing for all your tennis podcast listeners to find out what |
| 0:52.0 | we look like. Those and it the mistake is very thoroughly shattered. Speak for yourself. |

| 1:18.0 | frustrating day here, having with the first of the championship so far. Thank goodness we have a |
| 1:23.2 | roof on center courts. So Raffa on the Dow has managed to get through his match. Maria, |
| 1:27.6 | she had poverish through and Roger Federer just entering the final throws of his match. |
| 1:32.1 | Two sets to love up. So we've had matches on center court, but it has been a frustrating day elsewhere. |
| 1:38.2 | Stanislaus Vavrinkas match has been called off and cancelled until Monday, |
| 1:42.6 | saying with John Isner and Feliciano Lopez, but loads of matches going on at the moment. |
| 1:47.2 | But what is your highlight of week one B? Oh, Craig, you've thrown that out. We're out of the blue. |
| 1:51.7 | The highlight of week one. Probably, I'm very, I'm luckily, I haven't actually got to see that. |
