Part one - Men’s results. We discuss Carlos Alcaraz and Daniil Medvedev withstanding good performances from Yannick Hanfmann and Quentin Halys, Alex de Minaur weathering a bit of a storm on Laver, Alexander Zverev finding his best form, and the distinct lack of upsets so far.
Part two (30:21) - Women’s Results. We cover a dispiriting performance from Emma Raducanu and concerns over the direction of her game, as well as convincing wins for Coco Gauff and Mirra Andreeva.
Part three (53:24) - A Sensation of the Day dilemma and a look ahead to Day 5.
