About this episode
Tuesday at Roland Garros was enthralling, beginning with new names doing battle in unfamiliar territory and ending with old enemies duking it out under the lights. Afterwards, Catherine, David and Matt talked it through. Where was all the aggro between Daniil Medvedev and Stefanos Tsitsipas? How did the clay help Tsitsipas? And how much of a chance will Zverev have against Tsitsipas in this form in the semi-finals? In the women’s draw, the quarter-finals delivered so much drama and yielded breakthrough victories for Tamara Zidansek and Anastasia Pavlyuchenkova. How much did nerves affect Paula Badosa? In what way did Zidansek handle the occasion better? And just how significant is it that Pavlyuchenkova has altered her own story by finally winning a Grand Slam quarter-final at the eighth attempt?
