Wimbledon SFs: Delight for Djokovic, despair for Nadal & first time finalists

In the latest episode of Tennis Weekly, Joel and Kim round up the action from the semi finals at Wimbledon, which saw Britain's Cameron Norrie fall to six time Champ Novak Djokovic, Rafa Nadal withdrawing through injury, Ons Jabeur making history for Tunisia and Elena Rybakina ousting in form Simona Halep in straight sets. They discuss Rafa’s withdrawal and the debate around the concept of lucky losers filling spare slots, as well as look ahead to the weekend’s singles finals. Joel and Kim also catch up on Doubles action which saw Britain’s Neal Skupski and USA’s Desirae Krawczyk defend their title, and Joe Salisbury and Rajeev Ram lose in a heartbreaking semi final to the Aussie pair of Ebden and Purcell. ______________ LOCAL TENNIS LEAGUES Our Wimbledon coverage this year is sponsored by Local Tennis Leagues, the home of friendly, competitive tennis in the U.K. With over 10,000 players already signed up, it’s never been easier to find someone locally with a similar ability to have a hit with plus get access to great benefits including access to the Wimbledon Ballot...
