With Hubert Hurkacz putting himself forward as a contender for Wimbledon with victory in Halle, and another title for Ons Jabeur in the build up to a Slam, things are hotting up nicely for The Championships just around the corner.
Joel and Kim assess the varying fortunes of British players so far on grass, debate who should open the Ladies Singles at Wimbledon in Barty’s absence, and reflect on the dangers of an unseeded Nick Kyrgios in the draw next week.
Kim also tests Joel with a new Mysterious Player (niche knowledge required!) and they also discuss news from the US Open that Russians WILL be allowed to play.
