Feud with Roddick continues, VAR controversy and Pique's wild ideas

Listen Later

Calvin Betton (ATP tennis coach), George Bellshaw (writer and broadcaster) and James Gray (journalist) all gather round the microphone once again to discuss the biggest issues in tennis.


On the eve of "the fifth slam", there has been plenty of off-court controversy...


  • Calvin reacts to Andy Roddick's claim that Rohan Bopanna being a good person and helping other people "doesn't necessarily make doubles a use case" as well as insisting that "a singles player might have done the same or even more"
  • George breaks down the VAR controversy in Dubai where Felix Auger-Aliassime and Alexander Bublik clash over a "hindrance" video replay call
  • James posits a theory on Stefanos Tsitsipas's resurgence
  • Gerard Pique says he has more ideas on how to improve the sport because "tennis needs to evolve to adapt to the current speed and attract those young people who are tempted to watch many other things like HBO or Netflix"
  • Emma Navarro records a double-bagel victory in the Merida final while Jessica Pegula makes it two titles for the American women with victory in Austin
  • Tomas Machac serves his way to a maiden ATP title
  • And everyone gets ill in Acapulco
