Sinner faces WADA appeal, Wimbledon wins big, Asian swing intensifies
It’s been a big week of news in tennis and Catherine, David and Matt start by discussing the fact that the World Anti Doping Agency are appealing against the decision to clear Jannik Sinner of blame after he twice tested positive for a banned substance. There’s chat about why WADA have come to a different conclusion to the ITIA and what this means for both Sinner and the sport going forward. Elsewhere, there’s reaction to Wimbledon’s expansion plans being approved, Rafael Nadal being selected for Spain’s Davis Cup Finals squad, Caroline Garcia ending her season early, and pushback from players to criticism about taking part in exhibitions. Finally, we discuss what’s been happening on court in Beijing and Tokyo, including Zhang Shuai finally ending her 24-match losing streak, an all-French final in Japan between Ugo Humbert and Arthur Fils, and a Last 16 clash to savour in China between Naomi Osaka and Coco Gauff as both adapt to life with new coaches.
