Miami - Are Sinner & Sabalenka getting even better?

David, Catherine and the Athletic's Matt Futterman had plenty to talk about after Jannik Sinner and Aryna Sabalenka completed the rare Double Sunshine Double with their Miami Open titles.

Part one - ATP (00:00 - 37:45) We start with the extraordinary dominance of Jannik Sinner who has won the Indian Wells & Miami titles without dropping a set. With the points gap quickly closing on Carlos Alcaraz, Sinner is being open about his desperation to reclaim the top spot in men's tennis - will he do it, and if so, when?

Part two - WTA (37:45 - 1:08:23) We cover Aryna Sabalenka's imperious run to the Miami title, including her significant final victory over resurgent Coco Gauff. How does Sabalenka manage to peak at every tournament she plays, and is Gauff coming good at just the right time?

Part three - News (1:08:24 - 1:35:17) The WTA finals is set to move from Saudi Arabia - we wonder why, and where to? Plus there's discussion of Amanda Anisimova's shock coaching split and what it might lead to, and a general preview of the clay court season ahead (with punchy predictions).
