Tursonov breaks silence on Raducanu split and Swiatek speaks out on hindrances

78 min • 1 november 2022

George Bellshaw, Calvin Betton and James Gray of inews.co.uk and the i newspaper talk about the biggest topics from the last seven days of tennis, including:

  • Dimitry Tursonov discusses the 'red flags' that made him walk away from the Emma Raducanu job, and how he did *not* line up Belinda Bencic before doing so (Read the full interview here: https://www.tennismajors.com/wta-tour-news/tursunov-i-wasnt-hopping-from-one-player-to-another-i-wouldnt-do-that-631908.html)
  • Iga Swiatek says she 'can't control' the hand-waving that some people call hindrances, but do the podcasters agree?
  • Cam Norrie (and Nick Kyrgios) complain that Novak Djokovic has benefitted from Wimbledon by qualifying for the ATP World Tour Finals but they have not. Do we agree? (Read Simon Briggs' piece in the Telegraph here: https://www.telegraph.co.uk/tennis/2022/10/31/cameron-norrie-atp-finals-favours-novak-djokovic-unfair-selection/)
  • Daniil Medvedev has won his second title of the year, triumphing in Vienna
  • Australia confirm they have replaced the Hopman and ATP Cup with the United Cup, an 18-team, mixed competition held across three cities before the Australian Open
  • The WTA Finals gets underway in Fort Worth, having sold very few tickets indeed by all accounts - but listener Eli Cook asks us why one of the favourites Coco Gauff is quite so highly rated.
