BJK Cup Finals Day 5 - Sara Errani, what did you just do?!

Andy Murray and Novak Djokovic have won the last four Wimbledon men’s singles titles between them, but they both exited in a manner that prompted as many questions and answers.The Tennis Podcast team - led by presenters Catherine Whitaker and David Law, and joined by Charlie Eccleshare of the Telegraph - assembled to talk it through on the daily show. How injured was Murray, and did the injury decide the outcome of the match? Was Sam Querrey just too good? Should Murray take a significant time out of the game to heal? All discussed. How badly hurt was Djokovic to tap out of his match at 6-7, 0-2 down against Tomas Berdych? Is Djokovic about to ‘do a Roger Federer’ and take the rest of the year off?There’s a preview of the women’s semifinals, with predictions for the Johanna Konta vs. Venus Williams, and Garbine Muguruza vs. Magdalena Rybarikova matches. And the team discuss Goran Ivanisevic, who suggested on BBC Radio 5 Live that he might like to enter Strictly Come Dancing.

After a thrilling, (if a little soggy), women's quarter finals day, David & Catherine sought shelter in Southfields to digest an extraordinary battle between 'warriors' Jo Konta and Simona Halep, and an historic victory for sixth seed Konta. Plus, the collapse of Vandeweghe, the surge or Rybarikova, the resurgence of Muguruza and the Majestic Venus. Plus a slightly disgruntled Novak Djokovic, albeit a winning one. Hosted on Acast.

Manic Monday lived up to its name in every sense, with a massive upset, British history made, the World No.1 in the women’s game going out, and a will-they, won’t-they saga about moving Novak Djokovic on to Centre Court late at night. Afterwards, Telegraph tennis correspondent Simon Briggs joined Tennis Podcast presenters Catherine Whitaker and David Law, who are part of the BBC 5 Live team at Wimbledon, to review the day.What a story with Gilles Muller beating Rafael Nadal 15-13 in the 5th set. Did Muller win it, or Nadal lost it?Jo Konta and Andy Murray ensured a British man and woman reached the last 8 for the first time in 44 years. How did they play, and what did they say in the interview room afterwards?Angelique Kerber lost the World No.1 ranking, but not without an enormous fight against Garbine Muguruza in one of the matches of the tournament. But why was it out on Court No.2? Three-time champion Chris Evert reckons the inequality between male and female representation on the show courts needs to be stop. She tells Catherine Whitaker that it should be moved in line with equal prize money. Andy Murray agrees. And, with light fading and Nadal and Muller’s match taking such a long time, Djokovic vs. Adrian Mannarino eventually didn’t happen. What did The Tennis Podcast team make of the hours of delay before a decision was announced, and the verdict when it finally happened?The Tennis Podcast is a downloadable tennis radio show which is produced in association with Telegraph Sport and Eurosport.

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.

Andy Murray experienced the full Fabio Fognini effect in a Friday night thriller at Wimbledon, and came through it to tell the tale. Fognini hit an array of outrageous winners, some terrible errors, and challenged a vital call mid-rally when he had not challenges remaining. He was also warned for visible obscenities. Tennis Podcast presenters Catherine Whitaker and David Law took a break from their BBC Radio 5 Live broadcasting duties to sit in the crowd and soak it up. Afterwards, they convened to talk all about it to Telegraph tennis correspondent Simon Briggs.Was Murray sub-standard and a little fortunate to get through, or was this a vintage performance full of Murray grit? The Tennis Podcast team discuss and disagree.Heather Watson came close again, but not close enough, losing out in three sets to Victoria Azarenka. Could Azarenka now go all the way? One of the podcast team think so. Jo Konta cruised, however, reaching the last 16 of Wimbledon for the first time. Is she starting to justify her favourite tag?And can anyone stop Rafael Nadal?The Tennis Podcast is a downloadable tennis radio show which is produced in association with Telegraph Sport and Eurosport.

The day after the pre-tournament favourite Petra Kvitova went out of Wimbledon she was followed onto the sidelines by her compatriot Karolina Pliskova.That means The Tennis Podcast team’s two picks for the women's title are not going to win the event, and so our predictions lie in tatters …Was Pliskova losing really that big a shock? What does that mean for Jo Konta? Is she, as some bookmakers have suggested, now the clear favourite for title? It’s a question that led to BBC Radio 5 Live colleagues and Tennis Podcast presenters Catherine Whitaker and David Law having a massive argument on the show.All other significant day 4 results are covered, including straightforward wins for Roger Federer and Novak Djokovic.

The Tennis Podcast team reckon Jo Konta entered the consciousness of more British people than at any time in her career thanks to her classic 10-8 final set win on Wimbledon’s Centre Court against Donna Vekic. An Australian Open semifinal, a title win in Miami and a Top 10 ranking were enough to get year-round tennis fans on-board, but Wimbledon is where stars are made and this was a perfect setting. How did Konta do it? Was it a Vekic capitulation, or did Konta wrestle the win away from her? Presenters Catherine Whitaker and David Law, who are part of the BBC 5 Live Wimbledon team, discuss.What did they make of the form of Rafael Nadal and Andy Murray, who were both straight sets winners?Flying ants, a Daniil Medvedev meltdown, and a big old argument about who should be on Centre Court on Friday are also part of the show, particular after Heather Watson set up a showdown with Victoria Azarenka. The prediction of Law that Petra Kvitova would win the women’s title is also thrown under the microscope. She lost in round two …The Tennis Podcast is a downloadable tennis radio show which is produced in association with Telegraph Sport and Eurosport.

The Day Two Tennis Podcast from Wimbledon is dominated by discussion of injury retirements and whether the Grand Slam tournaments need to change their rules to stop players taking to the court with physical problems to ensure they still get a £35,000 first-round loser cheque.The team quote Andy Murray from the US Open 2015. He seems to have the solution.Meanwhile, presenter David Law gives us an insight into new Team Novak Djokovic. The three-time champion practised with his new coaching team of Andre Agassi and former Wimbledon semifinalist Mario Ancic. Afterwards, they fist-bumped and before going their separate ways, Ancic spoke to Law about the set-up of the new team. Law and fellow BBC Radio 5 Live broadcaster Catherine Whitaker also discuss the comments of Bernard Tomic, who admitted after a straight sets defeat that he took an injury time-out to try to change the flow of his match and interrupt his opponent’s momentum.
