Aus Open highlights, lowlights; Fed Cup ...

David Law, Catherine Whitaker, Matt Roberts
About this episode

After running the podcast single-handed for a fortnight of the Australian Open, David Law is rejoined by TV's Catherine Whitaker to share notes about what went on in Melbourne.

Catherine reveals the tears that flowed in the Eurosport studios, her highlights and lowlights of the tournament, and her concern that it will take 'a Soderling moment' to provide a different Grand Slam male champion.

A fabulous Fed Cup weekend is reviewed, but is there something we can do to make the thing more easily understood?

We talk about Great Britain boasting six players in the singles Top 100 for the first time in three decades, and discuss Rafael Nadal, who has signed up to return to the Aegon Championships at The Queen's Club in June. 

The Tennis Podcast is produced in association with The Telegraph.
