  • Catherine, David and Matt are back at Wimbledon and in our first live show of The Championships we react to the men's and women's singles draws. They didn't exactly throw up many enticing first round matches, but there's still plenty to discuss. There's chat about a tough section for Iga Swiatek, a potential Jannik Sinner vs Matteo Berrettini clash in round two, excitement for aggro re-lived between Ajla Tomljanovic and Jelena Ostapenko, British hopes and expectations for Emma Raducanu and Jack Draper, and how to view Novak Djokovic's draw which looks easy to begin with but tougher later on.

  • It was an eventful week in tennis headlined by Andy Murray having to retire from his second round match at Queen’s and then have surgery on his back. It leaves his Wimbledon participation in doubt. Catherine, David and Matt share their feelings and look ahead to what might happen over the next few days. 

    Elsewhere, there’s chat about Tommy Paul’s title at Queen’s, Lorenzo Musetti’s run to the final, and Jack Draper’s big win over Carlos Alcaraz. Matt is full of praise for Jannik Sinner winning his first grass court title in Halle and there’s a rant about the shadow situation there. 

    On the women’s side, who is the favourite for Wimbledon? Jessica Pegula saved five match points to defeat Anna Kalinskaya in Berlin, Coco Gauff impressed, and it was a good week for Iga Swiatek with her feet up as Aryna Sabalenka, Elena Rybakina, Ons Jabeur and Marketa Vondrousova all retired with injury or illness.

  • It was a seismic day at Roland Garros as Novak Djokovic withdrew from the tournament due to his knee injury.

Catherine, David and Matt discuss all of that as well as another five set win for Alexander Zverev, the clay court breakthrough of Alex de Minaur, and why this feels like such a big chance for Casper Ruud.

  • It was a dreary day at Roland Garros, with the rain falling and play on the outside courts cancelled, but it came to life when Iga Swiatek and Naomi Osaka came onto Court Philippe-Chatrier and played one of the most thrilling matches of the year. Swiatek escaped as the winner, saving a match point, but it felt like Osaka won something too as she played her best tennis in years. On the pod, Catherine, David and Matt cover the match, the press conferences, and the disappointing crowd. Elsewhere, there's chat about an unconvincing win for Carlos Alcaraz, impressive performances from Ons Jabeur and Stefanos Tsitsipas, a big moment for Sofia Kenin, and a look ahead to tomorrow's schedule.
