Catherine, David and Matt cover the main headlines from tournaments in Stuttgart, Rouen, Barcelona and Munich.
Part one - WTA Results. Jelena Ostapenko wins Stuttgart and becomes the third woman this year to beat Iga Swiatek and Aryna Sabalenka in the same event. We discuss her incredible form, Sabalenka’s final performance, Ostapenko’s now 6-0 head to head against Swiatek, and what it all means as Roland Garros approaches. There’s also chat about Elina Svitolina winning Rouen and a dreadful moment from Harriet Dart.
Part two - ATP Results (from 33m). Holger Rune won his first title in two years, beating a physically compromised Carlos Alcaraz in the final. We discuss Rune’s strategy, an extraordinary trophy ceremony, and Alexander Zverev rediscovering his form to win the title in Munich.
Part three - A look ahead to Madrid (from 54m).
