Live from Wimbledon Day 11 - Anisimova, Swiatek break new ground, how does Sabalenka rebound?

Catherine Matt and David were joined by special guest Pam Shriver to analyse two completely different women’s semi-finals and look ahead to tomorrow’s men’s semis.

In Part 1 we discuss the gripping match between Amanda Anisimova and Aryna Sabalenka, a tight, three-set tussle that felt on the edge until the very last point. We talk about where the match was won and lost, whether Sabalenka got her tactics right, and what Anisimova did to carry herself over the line.

Part 2 (40m44s) - Anisimova will meet Iga Swiatek in the final, who was utterly dominant against a seemingly compromised Belinda Bencic. We discuss Swiatek’s progress on grass and how her own success has surprised her at this tournament. Plus, a brief detour to sample some strawberry pasta.

In Part 3 (55m56s) we review the Wimbledon mixed doubles final and Pam and David disagree on the status of the US Open mixed doubles to come. Then we look ahead to the men’s semi-finals, do some more punchy percentage predictions, and Pam gives us her scoop on what happened to Djokovic’s scheduled practice.
