Catherine, David and Matt are home from Melbourne and here to look back on another busy week of tennis as the tours moved onto the Middle East and indoors in Europe. 

Part one (00:00 - 34:52) - Women’s results. We discuss the rise of another young Czech as Sara Bejlek won her first career title in Abu Dhabi, a title in her home country for Sorana Cirstea, an eventful week for Emma Raducanu as she reached her first final since the US Open in 2021, and a much-needed title for Katie Boulter in Ostrava!!!. 

Part two (34:53 - 56:49) - Men’s results. We cover Felix Auger-Aliassime picking up yet another title indoors and all the results from the Davis Cup Qualifiers, headlined by incredible wins for South Korea, India and Ecuador. 

Part three (56:50 - 1:22:49) - Some tennis politics, a look ahead to this week on tour, and a tribute to Mark Hodgkinson, the former tennis correspondent of the Telegraph who sadly died last week at the age of 46.
