Summary
With the 2019 Championships at Wimbledon upon us, Catherine invites David and Matt round to her garden to drink beer, eat strawberries and dissect the draws.
They do all of the above in our pre-Wimbledon podcast, whilst also trying to define 'the mix' at this year's event, discuss the new coaching relationship between Goran Ivanisevic and Novak Djokovic, and determine whether Andy Murray and Serena Williams will end up playing mixed doubles together.
The Tennis Podcast will be published daily throughout Wimbledon, in association with Telegraph Sport.

| 0:05.1 | Standruva Winka. I'm Lighten Youet. I'm Andy Murray and you're listening to the tennis podcast. |
| 0:20.0 | You join us in Leuffy London on a lovely sunny day 24 hours before the |
| 0:25.8 | Championships at Wimbledon begin and myself David Law sitting alongside Matt Roberts in |
| 0:32.2 | Catherine Whitaker's garden. Hello Catherine. Which all the listeners will now know of it is |
| 0:39.7 | that it's right underneath the Heathrow flight path. Other than that it's delightful. Yeah, we brought |
| 0:45.9 | you an association with the telegraph. We've already devoured Catherine's selection of nibbles |
| 0:52.0 | that she's brought out for us here. What a great host you are. Some with more style than others. |
| 0:55.9 | Yeah, yes. Matt did have a moment where... I'm if you're going to live this down, I'm |
| 0:59.6 | not. He just casually reached across the table as if it was the most natural thing in the world. |
| 1:04.7 | Grabbed a chunk of strawberry and dipped it into avocado hummus. That's what students do or did. |
| 1:10.8 | And actually I intervened before it reached his mouth just to check that he knew what he was doing |

| 1:27.6 | across Catherine's face. But you knew what you were doing, right? I was on automatic pilots. |
| 1:32.8 | The strawberries are at a distance and the hummus is near and it was just on the way home back to my |
| 1:39.2 | mouth and I just dipped it in. Yeah. So this is what the people want. They want snack-based chat. |
| 1:45.0 | And there you are folks. Don't mix strawberries with avocado hummus. So what have we got to talk |
| 1:51.6 | about? Well only the one of the four biggest tournaments in the world, arguably the biggest. |
| 1:56.7 | I've been there for the first time in 2019 today and had a little chat on BBC Five Live |
