Catherine, David and Matt were live on Friday night to look back on the dramatic final few days in Canada and ahead to Cincinnati.
Part one - WTA Montreal. Rarely have we felt such conflicting emotions watching a tennis match as we did during Victoria Mboko’s victory over Naomi Osaka. For Mboko, what made this run so special? And what does this title mean for her future? But what happened to Osaka? How much criticism should she get for her post match speech? And where does this tournament leave her?
Part two - ATP Toronto (43m20s). Ben Shelton won his first Masters 1000 title. What developments did we see in his game this week? What gave him the edge over Karen Khachanov in the final? And what’s his US Open Mix status?
Part three - Coaching news and Cincinnati preview (66m57s). We cover Emma Raducanu’s decision to work with Francisco Roig, Holger Rune hiring Marco Panichi, Aryna Sabalenka adding Max Mirnyi as a consultant, and the breaking news that Stefano Vukov has had his WTA Tour suspension lifted.
