Summary
It was media day at Wimbledon which meant that most of the leading players came into the press conference room, and Catherine, David and Matt were there to ask them questions. On the pod, there's discussion of Aryna Sabalenka revealing that she's not 100% fit because of her shoulder injury, Novak Djokovic's remarkable recovery from knee surgery as he eyes up an 8th title, the confidence radiating from Carlos Alcaraz, Coco Gauff and Jannik Sinner, the way Iga Swiatek is going to try to adapt her game to grass, and how British hopes Jack Draper and Emma Raducanu are approaching Wimbledon. Elsewhere, there's reaction to Andy Murray's practice session as he attempts to play singles on Tuesday, and today's title winners are covered.
