Roland Garros Day 15 - Djokovic overtake...

David Law, Catherine Whitaker, Matt Roberts
About this episode

Novak Djokovic stands alone at the top of men's tennis after winning his 23rd major title at Roland Garros. Catherine, David and Matt discuss his 7-6 6-3 7-5 victory over Casper Ruud, his first set nerves, his extraordinary tiebreak record, the significance of the moment and how happy he seemed, and how motivated he is to keep winning. Elsewhere, we finally get to speak to Amelie Mauresmo about the night sessions and scheduling.
