Weekly Wrap | Innovation at Wimbledon and a big week for soccer in the US

SportsPro news editor Tom Bassam and media and tech editor Steve McCaskill join Eoin Connolly to reflect on another week of industry news.

First, they look ahead to The Championships at Wimbledon, asking whether the removal of rankings points will really hamper the appeal of tennis’ grass-court Grand Slam and reviewing the latest tech innovations introduced at SW19 by IBM and other AELTC partners. 

Then they look back on a busy week for soccer in North America, piecing together the implications of a landmark deal between Apple and MLS and confirmation of host venues for the 2026 Fifa World Cup.
