French Open Day 7 - Gauff falls, so who’s in the title Mix now?

Catherine, David and Matt review yet another dramatic day at Roland Garros, headlined by defeat for defending champion Coco Gauff to Anastasia Potapova.

Part one - Women’s draw. We discuss how Gauff’s loss unfolded, the extraordinary level and resilience of Potapova, and where this leaves Gauff going into the grass court season. Plus, all the talking points from Amanda Anisimova’s loss to Diane Parry, including #sneezegate, and a look ahead to Naomi Osaka’s blockbuster clash with Aryna Sabalenka. How much chance does Osaka have? Could it possibly be night session?

Part two - Men’s draw (40:56) We get stuck into the wave of marathon matches, including emotional wins for Matteo Berrettini and Juan Manuel Cerundolo, as well as a massive opportunity for Francisco Cerundolo against Zachary Svajda. The only guy to win in straight sets was Flavio Cobolli. How far can he go?

Part three - Redoing The Mix after a week of carnage and a Day 8 preview, including Swiatek vs Kostyuk and Ruud vs Fonseca (1:08:24).
