What’s happened since the US Open?
Catherine, David and Matt are home from New York and convene to discuss everything that’s happened in the tennis world since the US Open, headlined by some thrilling Davis Cup action. Part one (00:00 - 29:44) - We cover all the talking points from the Davis Cup as the Final 8 line-up was complete, including Czechia’s brilliant win over USA, why Spain could be the favourites for the title, and how this week reminded us of the brilliance of the home and away Davis Cup format, as long as you can find it to watch on TV. Part two (29:45 - 45:21) - We discuss Holger Rune’s long-awaited return after his Achilles rupture, an emotional week for Joao Fonseca, Iva Jovic defending her title in Guadalajara, and some more spicy quotes from Tallon Griekspoor. Part three (45:22 - 1:19:37) - We debate the pros and cons of the WTA Finals’ new home in Charlotte, North Carolina, and look ahead to this week’s action which includes the Billie Jean King Cup Finals in Shenzhen and the Laver Cup in London.
