Description
Another week and another dominant performance from Iga Swiatek as she wins Doha for a third time in three years (!), Jannik Sinner continue his seamless run of form so far in 2024 in Rotterdam, and Carlos Alcaraz beaten in the Golden Swing as Argentine Wildcard Diaz Acosta takes a surprise title. The trio also ponder the current lack of one-handed backhands in the ATP Top 10, whether the Australian Open will boldly move the Ladies Final to a Sunday from 2026 and who’s going to be picking up the titles this week on tour. We also hear from Tennis Weekly producer Alina on her behind the scenes experience at the IEB+ Open in Argentina and Joel tests Chris and Kim to a battle of the men’s one-Slam wonders.
