On a very strange day at Roland Garros, Catherine, David and Matt discuss Alexander Zverev reaching a fourth Grand Slam final and a semi-final that didn’t happen. Part one - Reaction to Matteo Arnaldi’s withdrawal, what it might mean for Flavio Cobolli ahead of the final, a surreal joint press conference, and the issue of split session men’s semi-finals. Part two (16:32) - We discuss how Zverev beat Jakub Mensik in four sets and his prospects for the final. Part three (28:35) - A rundown of the latest results in the wheelchair and doubles events, plus a preview of tomorrow’s women’s final between qualifier Maja Chwalinska and Mirra Andreeva.Become a ⁠Friend of The Tennis Podcast⁠Check out our ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠new merch shop⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠! Talk tennis with Friends on ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠The Barge! ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Sign up to receive our free ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Newsletter⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ (daily at Slams and weekly the rest of the year, featuring Matt’s Stat, mascot photos, Fantasy League updates, and more)Follow us on ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Instagram⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ (@thetennispodcast)Subscribe to our ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠YouTube⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ channel.
