About this episode
The quarter-final line-ups are set and the two draws could scarcely be more different. In the women's draw, the top half became an even bigger land of opportunity as Victoria Azarenka was beaten by Dayana Yastremska, and Elina Svitolina had to retire against Linda Noskova. On the pod, David reveals his best Noskova anecdote, and we also discuss how Zheng Qinwen might handle the pressure of being the favourite to reach the final. Meanwhile in the men's draw, Carlos Alcaraz dazzled on court but couldn't name a woman, Alexander Zverev won his second fifth set tiebreak of the event against the new and improved Cameron Norrie, and Daniil Medvedev put on a return of serve masterclass in a fantastic on court interview with Jim Courier.
