Catherine, David and Matt are joined by The Athletic’s Charlie Eccleshare on the day that Maja Chwalinska and Mirra Andreeva booked their spots in Saturday’s Roland Garros Final.
Part one - We react to Chwalinska’s absorbing victory over Diana Shnaider and the continuation of her remarkable run from qualifying. How did Chwalinska showcase the full range of her game? And how will she handle the next 48 hours?
Part two (24:38) - We discuss Andreeva’s comfortable win against Marta Kostyuk in the day’s first semi-final. In what way did Andreeva deal with the conditions and demonstrate her mindset growth? What happened to Kostyuk and why was she able to process this defeat so well in the press conference? And how might the final play out?
Part three (44:27) A preview of tomorrow’s men’s semi-finals. What does Jakub Mensik have to do to upset Alexander Zverev?
