Hi, I'm John McInerd. I'm Bjorn Borgh. This is Martina Navratlova. I'm Matt Vylander. I'm

San Roenka. I'm Lainey Njut. I'm Andy Marri and you're listening to the tennis podcast.

Hello, welcome to the tennis podcast brought to you in association with the telegraph.

0:24.7

It is Tuesday. It is about quarter to six in the evening. We have slate gray skies and it looks

0:31.8

very much as though we're not going to get any more play on anything other than center court,

0:36.0

where I suspect we're going to have about a four-hour epic between Svetlana Kuznetseva and

0:40.4

Caroline Wasniaki. My self-David Law joined by Catherine Whitaker. Simon Briggs from the telegraph,

0:45.7

but very, very nice to have Jonathan Oven from the BBC. Here with us as well for the first

year of the minute. Hi, how are you? I'm very well indeed. What was it 11 years as the BBC's tennis

correspondent? How was it? Not that you were counting. That's very good. It's very good. Can't you

Acon Championships at Queens is to do that off the back of his run at the French Open. That's what

1:32.6

impressed me and that's what I never really saw in those 11 years. It was a really good run at the

1:38.3

French, followed by a really good run on the grass. It never to be there with the years when he'd

1:42.8

lose early at Queens. Then something might happen here at Wimbledon. But now you just feel like

1:48.3

in that groove, that winning groove, that refusal to lose early in tournaments. I think that will

really benefit him here. The Lendor Factor. Do you actually believe in the Lendor Factor?
