Washington - Fernandez and De Minaur collect titles as Venus Williams shines again

Catherine and Matt are joined by The Athletic’s Matt Futterman to discuss an eventful week in Washington and a whole lot of tennis news.

Part one - Washington Review. We start by covering an incredible performance from Venus Williams to beat Peyton Stearns and why her wildcard this time felt like a perfect one. Leylah Fernandez’s impressive title run, and where it fits into the narrative of her career, is also covered, as well as Alex de Minaur’s extraordinary victory over poor Alejandro Davidovich Fokina in the final. Will ADF ever get a title?

Part two - News (from 42m20s). We debate Jannik Sinner’s decision to re-hire Umberto Ferrara, and discuss where things went wrong for the Stefanos Tsitsipas-Goran Ivanisevic and Naomi Osaka-Patrick Mouratoglou coaching partnerships. We also give our takes on more US Open mixed doubles pairings being announced, Bill Ackman receiving a wildcard to play in Newport, and Tara Moore’s four year doping ban.

Part three - Canada Preview (from 82m25s). How are our excitement levels as the women head to Montreal and the men to Toronto?
