Catherine, David and Matt are back to talk about Iga Swiatek’s title run in Beijing where she cut out the unforced errors, re-established her dominance over Coco Gauff, and looked free and unburdened on court. On the men’s side, Jannik Sinner went from vomiting in a bin against Grigor Dimitrov to beating Carlos Alcaraz and Daniil Medvedev in back-to-back matches. Just how impressive were both Swiatek and Sinner?
There’s also discussion about the main storylines from Shanghai so far, the Australian Open becoming a 15-day event, the completion of the WTA Finals line-up, and Stefanos Tsitsipas splitting with Mark Philippoussis.
