Summary
Recorded after spending the evening with Billie Jean King(!) and Ilana Kloss(!) while watching England progress to the semi-finals of the Euros(!), Catherine, David and Matt take in another sensational day at Wimbledon, headlined by Emma Raducanu's dazzling display to reach the Last 16. What makes her special? Just how surprising is this run? And can she go further?
Elsewhere, there's chat about Roger Federer winning in four sets against Cameron Norrie, much excitement over the aggro between Jelena Ostapenko and Ajla Tomljanovic, and plenty of anticipation for Coco Gauff vs. Angelique Kerber.
