Description

We begin this week’s episode by talking about how tennis is affected by Russia’s invasion of Ukraine. What have Russian and Ukrainian players be saying on social media? Should Russia be banned from team competitions in the sport? And should that ban extend to Russian players competing on tour? It’s a complex situation without any easy answers. Elsewhere, Catherine, David and Matt react to Daniil Medvedev becoming World No.1, titles for Andrey Rublev and Rafael Nadal in Dubai and Acapulco, a big win for Jiri Vesely over Novak Djokovic, and a ruthless week from Iga Swiatek in Doha. There’s also discussion about what would be an appropriate punishment for Alexander Zverev after his actions in Acapulco.
