Is Anisimova the favourite for the WTA finals?

The groups have been drawn for the WTA Finals in Riyadh and Catherine, David and Matt are here to preview the tournament and reflect on the opening stages of the ATP 1000 event in Paris.

Part one - WTA Finals singles preview. We break down the groups and make predictions for the week ahead. How will Iga Swiatek fare against the big hitters? What will happen when Coco Gauff faces Aryna Sabalenka for the first time since Roland Garros? And can Amanda Anisimova keep up her superb form?

Part two - WTA Finals doubles preview and Paris results so far (32:26). We cover Carlos Alcaraz’s loss to Cameron Norrie, the latest instalment of the cousin clash between Valentin Vacherot and Arthur Rinderknech, and how Lorenzo Musetti’s defeat leaves the Race to Turin.

Part three - Jannik Sinner calls out the Grand Slams for delaying player welfare and prize money talks (51:58).
