David is back together with Catherine and Matt to discuss a busy opening week of the 2020 season. The significance of Serena Williams’ title in Auckland is assessed, caution is urged after Karolina Pliskova’s triumph in Brisbane, there are debates about the real meaning of Serbia’s ATP Cup victory and the possible solution to tennis’ team event conundrum, and a row ensues about Novak Djokovic’s status as the Australian Open favourite.
