The Big 2025 Review Show

Catherine, David and Matt, with the help of voice notes from an esteemed list of colleagues and Friends, look back on the highs and lows of the 2025 tennis season.

Part one (00:00 - 40:24) - A very special discussion between Pam Shriver and Mary Carillo on Amanda Anisimova’s resilience, a year of two halves for Coco Gauff, and the way Jannik Sinner and Carlos Alcaraz separated themselves from the field.

Part two (40:25 - 1:03:53)- Charlie Eccleshare talks about the Roland Garros men’s final, while Simon Briggs discusses men’s tennis’ hunt for its third man.

Part three (1:03:54 - 1:44:33) - Hannah Wilks shares her perspective on how the sport’s politics got in the way of the actual tennis in 2025 and Matt Futterman helps to close the show with reflections on how a player’s narrative can change over the course of a long season.
