Wimbledon Day 6 - The Big Manic Monday Schedule Debate; Kerber, Wozniacki Survive; Federer, Djokovic Cruise;

On a day when many of the leading female players fought through scares to take their places in the last 16, and the top male stars cruised into week two of Wimbledon, the main topic of conversation on Saturday was ‘who will be scheduled where on Manic Monday?’

It’s a topic that was picked up immediately on The Tennis Podcast, with The Telegraph’s correspondent Simon Briggs joining presenters David Law and Catherine Whitaker.

Four men’s matches on Monday (involving the so-called Big 4 of Andy Murray, Roger Federer, Rafael Nadal and Novak Djokovic) were scheduled on the two main show courts, versus two women’s matches. Is it right that these ‘marquee players’, as they are referred to, get top billing because they are the players ticket-holders are perceived to want to see most, or is a self-perpetuating problem? i.e. can the women’s game ever win the ‘market forces’ game if they are not given the biggest stage on which to show what they can do?

In a separate argument, is it fair to, say, Djokovic and Nadal, that they are having their second matches of the week away from Centre Court while Murray and Djokovic have yet to play anywhere other than Centre Court?

All discussed on the latest podcast.

The escapes of Angelique Kerber and Caroline Wozniacki are covered, as are the strolls for Federer, Djokovic, Milos Raonic and Alexander Zverev.

The Tennis Podcast is a downloadable tennis radio show which is produced in association with Telegraph Sport and Eurosport. A new Tennis Podcast will be out after play every night during Wimbledon.
