Episode description

Happy New Year! The 2025 season is up and running and so are Lucy and Eugene who get into all the goings-on from an eventful first week.

What’s the deal with Elena Rybakina and Stefano Vukov? The Kazakh tops our news round-up.

Coco Gauff, the United Cup MVP, carries the USA to victory and scores another significant win against Iga Swiatek. Jasmine Paolini and Felix Auger-Aliassime also got their campaigns under way at the team competition.

The ASB Classic (or the Black Girl Magic Open) in Auckland provided us with amazing tennis and some incredible storylines from Naomi Osaka reaching her first final post-maternity, to Robin Montgomery making her maiden WTA Tour semi-final.

Mpetshi Perricard beat the “serve-bot” allegations with his brilliant run to the semi-finals in Brisbane. 
Frenchman showed he can play with variety and ingenuity in wins over Nick Kygrios, Frances Tiafoe and Jakub Mensik.

Arthur Fils and Gabriel Diallo play Hong Kong and experience a mixed bag.
