Episode description

Just before Catherine and Matt drove up to meet David for some Tennis Podcast meetings, our trio got together to talk about the week in tennis.

Part one - ATP Dubai, Acapulco, Santiago. How much is the return of Stefanos Tsitsipas down to what looked like a new racquet? Should the maiden title of Tomas Machac have an asterisk next to it? And how did Laslo Djere end the Sebastian Baez South America domination?

Part two - WTA Merida & Austin. Emma Navarro and Jessica Pegula scored their first title wins of the 2025 season, but got very different rewards. What's going on there?

Part three - The WTA rebrand. Thoughts? Catherine sure gave hers. And we looked ahead to the week of tennis to come.
