Madrid - Alcaraz wins and sends a message; Jabeur blazes a trail

On finals weekend in Madrid, Carlos Alcaraz beat Rafael Nadal, Novak Djokovic and Alexander Zverev back-to-back-to-back and Ons Jabeur became the first Arab woman to lift a WTA 1000 title, leaving us with two stunning stories to discuss.

Catherine joins David and Matt to reveal what it was like to be there and watch it all from up close. Which of Alcaraz's wins was the most impressive? How will Nadal and Djokovic respond to his challenge going into Roland Garros? How does Jabeur embrace being a pioneer? And is she in The Mix for the French Open?

We also talk in depth about numerous scheduling issues, including why Zverev was right to complain about playing so late, but also why the women had it much worse, with the not before start time for the final between Jabeur and Jessica Pegula particularly unacceptable.

Moving on to Rome, we call out the shameful discrepancy in prize money for the men and women.
