Summary
Manic Monday lived up to its name in every sense, with a massive upset, British history made, the World No.1 in the women’s game going out, and a will-they, won’t-they saga about moving Novak Djokovic on to Centre Court late at night.
Afterwards, Telegraph tennis correspondent Simon Briggs joined Tennis Podcast presenters Catherine Whitaker and David Law, who are part of the BBC 5 Live team at Wimbledon, to review the day.
What a story with Gilles Muller beating Rafael Nadal 15-13 in the 5th set. Did Muller win it, or Nadal lost it?
Jo Konta and Andy Murray ensured a British man and woman reached the last 8 for the first time in 44 years. How did they play, and what did they say in the interview room afterwards?
Angelique Kerber lost the World No.1 ranking, but not without an enormous fight against Garbine Muguruza in one of the matches of the tournament. But why was it out on Court No.2? Three-time champion Chris Evert reckons the inequality between male and female representation on the show courts needs to be stop. She tells Catherine Whitaker that it should be moved in line with equal prize money. Andy Murray agrees.
And, with light fading and Nadal and Muller’s match taking such a long time, Djokovic vs. Adrian Mannarino eventually didn’t happen. What did The Tennis Podcast team make of the hours of delay before a decision was announced, and the verdict when it finally happened?
The Tennis Podcast is a downloadable tennis radio show which is produced in association with Telegraph Sport and Eurosport. A new Tennis Podcast will be out after play every night during Wimbledon.
