As world events unfold, what happens to tennis?

Catherine, David and Matt catch up on all the latest results and news in a week which saw the illusion of tennis existing outside of world events collapse again.

Part one - ATP (00:00 - 48:17). We cover the dystopian scene of the doubles final in Dubai taking place despite American and Israeli strikes on Tehran and Iran’s retaliatory attacks across the region. Plus, an update on the players and staff still stuck in Dubai with airspaces closed. On the court, there’s chat about Daniil Medvedev finally winning a tournament for the second time, even if this one came via walkover, the return of Jack Draper, Flavio Cobolli’s triumph in Acapulco, and Luciano Darderi picking up his fifth clay court title in Santiago.

Part two - WTA (48:18 - 1:01:57). We discuss Peyton Stearns winning the title in her college town of Austin and a career-best moment for Cristina Bucsa in Merida.

Part three - News (1:01:58 - 1:31:53). The worst kept secret is finally out - Craig Tiley is moving from Tennis Australia to the USTA. We discuss the challenges ahead of him and where Tennis Australia might go next. There’s also chat about Emma Raducanu's clothing and coaching news as well as a look ahead to Indian Wells, which gets underway with its draw ceremony today.
