Catherine, David and Matt were live to discuss what the players had to say at the end of another media day affected by player protest action over prize money revenue and welfare issues.
How much of a feature was this action on media day? Would it help if the players were more specific about the welfare improvements they’re seeking? And where does this movement go from here?
Moving on to the tennis chat, we cover the challenges facing Iga Swiatek and Jannik Sinner as defending champions, how Novak Djokovic feels different to how he felt in Paris, the tough spot Alex de Minaur finds himself in, how life has changed for French Open finalist Maja Chwalinska, and much more.
We close by wrapping up the day’s tour results, including a first career title at last for Alejandro Davidovich Fokina and a third Eastbourne title for Madison Keys.
