The grass court season has officially begun—and there’s no time to catch your breath after that epic Alcaraz vs. Sinner Roland Garros final! Join Joel, Kim, and Chris at Tennis Weekly HQ as they dive into a jam-packed first week of action on the lawns. From Tatjana Maria’s fairytale run as a qualifier to win the first WTA event at Queen’s in over 50 years, to Elise Mertens saving 11 match points in the Netherlands, there’s no shortage of drama. Is Maria one of the last true grass court specialists? And what makes her so tricky for power players like Keys and Rybakina?

The trio also breaks down Taylor Fritz’s continued dominance over Zverev in Stuttgart, Emma Raducanu’s headline-grabbing claim that she’s “not playing for money,” and the LTA’s push for prize money parity at Queen’s by 2029. Plus, there’s a fresh round of Par for the Courts, and a heated Mailbag debate over Qinwen Zheng’s suspicious shoe malfunctions or whether it's just a bit of bad PR for the Nike trainer department. Joel isn't buying it, are you?
