It's been quite a week. Catherine, David and Matt convene to review the United Cup, Brisbane, Auckland, the extraordinary performances of Coco Gauff, and an increasingly disturbing storyline on the WTA Tour.

Part one - Coco Gauff, Taylor Fritz give US victory in the United Cup. Is this a new Gauff? Plus, Tomas Machac shows his two sides, and Elena Rybakina clashes with WTA after announcing suspended Stefano Vukov will return to her team.

Part two (from 44 minutes) - What happened in Brisbane, Auckland and Hong Kong? We review it all.

Part three (from 69 minutes) - All the other news and a look ahead to the coming week on the Tours ahead of the Australian Open.
