Summary

Catherine, David and Matt discuss the opening week of action in Miami which has delivered plenty of shocks, controversial moments, and talking points.

Part one - ATP Results. Why did all the Indian Wells semi-finalists lose early? What’s up with Carlos Alcaraz right now? And just how good was Joao Fonseca’s performance to beat Ugo Humbert? There’s also discussion about a scheduling bungling, getting to know Colman Wong, Novak Djokovic’s form so far, and David has a big Gael Monfils take to share.

Part two - WTA Results (from 32m03s) Matt takes us through all the drama and aggro involving Amanda Anisimova and Mirra Andreeva as Anisimova stopped Andreeva’s 13-match winning streak in the battle of the backhand listers. We also discuss the wonderful run of Alexandra Eala, Emma Raducanu’s impressive win over Emma Navarro, and the way the Last 16 line-up is nicely set.

Part three - News (from 55m09s) Our reaction to the PTPA’s legal action against the Tours and what the player response so far means.
