It’s been a manic week in Madrid with a mass power outage causing widespread disruptions to play, while Alexander Zverev has drawn attention to a problem with the video technology being used for the electronic line calling. Grand Slam champions Todd Woodbridge and Sam Stosur join Brie Stewart and Matt Trollope to discuss the big news from Madrid, including Maya Joint, Alex de Minaur and Novak Djokovic whose immediate future is under a cloud following his straight sets defeat to Matteo Arnaldi and subsequent withdrawal from Rome. Todd also reacts to Max Purcell’s 18-month ban from the ITIA for the use of a prohibited method in December 2023. And to celebrate episode 300, Brie quizzes the panel on centuries in tennis.

A week after reaching the Miami final, Novak Djokovic has suffered a devastating loss to Alejandro Tabilo in his first outing at Monte-Carlo, while Alex de Minaur and Alexei Popyrin have flown the Australian flag into the Round of 16. Jessica Pegula’s charmed run has continued in Charleston with her second title in a month (and first on clay), elevating her above countrywoman Coco Gauff to become America’s No.1 woman. Meanwhile, teenage bolter Alexandra Eala has gained direct entry into Roland Garros to become the first Filipino woman to play a Grand Slam main draw. And Daria Saville has opened a can of worms on TikTok questioning why brands prioritise tennis ‘WAGs’ ahead of women players for commercial partnerships. Dasha’s husband and coach Luke Saville gives his take, while Australian Open publicist Carla Alderuccio also joins Brie Stewart and Xavier Muhlebach in studio to untangle the threads. And who takes the chocolates in Brie’s Easter themed tennis quiz?
