Catherine, David and Matt are back from Paris and here to discuss the first week of the grass court season.
Part one - WTA Queen’s. We cover Tatjana Maria’s extraordinary run to the title as women’s tennis returned to The Queen’s Club for the first time in 52 years. How did she use her slice and dice game to defeat the likes of Elena Rybakina, Madison Keys and Amanda Anisimova? And what more could they have done against her? There’s also chat about Zheng Qinwen’s ‘shoenanigans’ and Emma Raducanu and Katie Boulter playing doubles together.
Part two - Results round up (33m33s). Elise Mertens saves 11 match points against Ekaterina Alexandrova and goes on to triumph in s’Hertogenbosch, Gabriel Diallo wins his first title, and Taylor Fritz continues his dominance over Alexander Zverev.
Part three - News (46m30s). We look ahead to this week’s events, including stacked fields in Berlin, Queen’s and Halle, and discuss the main headlines from Wimbledon’s pre event press conference.
