Summary
David’s back! Fresh from his holiday, he joins Catherine and Matt to talk all about the last week in tennis, headlined by Caroline Garcia’s victory over Iga Swiatek and subsequent title in Warsaw, as well as Jannik Sinner’s victory in Umag.
Has Garcia provided the rest of the tour with a blueprint for how to beat Swiatek? How much longer might she be able to keep up this red hot form? And what’s giving Sinner the edge in his rivalry with Carlos Alcaraz?
There’s also chat about titles for Marie Bouzkova and Alex de Minaur, some aggro between Jenson Brooksby and Frances Tiafoe, Emma Raducanu’s decision to work with Dmitry Tursunov, and a preview of the week ahead as the hard court swing heats up in San Jose and Washington.
