Wimbledon Wrap-Up: Curfews, Wild Cards and the Noskova Prophecy!

The Wimbledon fortnight is over, and it's time for the Tennis Weekly Wrap-Up Show! After two weeks of daily episodes from the All England Club, Joel, Kim and Chris put a bow on Wimbledon 2026 by looking back at the stories, surprises and moments that made this year's Championships so unforgettable. From Arthur Fery's fairytale run and the rise of Linda Noskova to scorching temperatures, scheduling debates and some truly chaotic predictions, there's plenty to unpack. The team revisit their pre-tournament picks to discover whose draw predictions deserve a standing ovation and whose should probably never see the light of day again, before handing out their annual Wimbledon awards, including Best Match, Biggest Upset, Biggest Surprise, One To Watch, Most Room For Improvement and, of course, Pet Peeve. Plus, it's time for another edition of Peak, Pit and Pleasant Surprise, featuring everything from Joel's 'commiserations' comment to Aryna Sabalenka in press after her defeat to Naomi Osaka, Kim's continued fascination with obscure British tennis players out around the grounds and Chris's view on the Stella Artois Strawberries & Cream pint edition.
