Nadal quits Indian Wells, Halep’s ban reduced and why Netflix has cancelled tennis

Listen Later

James Gray, George Bellshaw and Calvin Betton are back together to look back at a dramatic week off the court (and occasionally on it), discussing the following...

  • Rafael Nadal pulls out of Indian Wells at the last minute, citing an injury issue - although he seemed fine at The Netflix Slam...
  • Simona Halep gets a successful ruling from the Court of Arbitration for Sport, her doping ban reduced from four years to nine months and a verdict that she had not deliberately ingested a banned substance
  • Katie Boulter follows up the best result of her career with... a first-round defeat to Camila Giorgi
  • Andy Murray beats David Goffin and then loses a one-sided match to Andrey Rublev
  • Netflix follows up its first live tennis event by cancelling its behind-the-scenes documentary 
  • Queen's is set to host a WTA 500 event from 2025, according to the BBC
  • Calvin calls out the ATP on the doubles entry system - and gets a lot of blowback on Twitter
