Halep back, anti-doping system in tatters; Indian Wells update

The Tennis Podcast - Un pódcast de David Law, Catherine Whitaker, Matt Roberts

Categorías:

Indian Wells is underway but it was a news-heavy week in the tennis world and Catherine, David and Matt begin by discussing the fact that Simona Halep can return to tennis after CAS reduced her suspension to 9 months. Why did CAS come to such a different conclusion to the ITIA? How do we feel about tennis’ anti-doping system in light of this case? And what do we make of Halep receiving a wildcard to play Miami? Elsewhere, there’s chat about Netflix not renewing Break Point for season three, a possible WTA grass court event at The Queen’s Club, and the main stories from Indian Wells so far. We cover the withdrawals of Rafael Nadal and Elena Rybakina, Carlos Alcaraz’s improved form, whether anyone can beat Jannik Sinner, Coco Gauff and Aryna Sabalenka’s incredible comebacks, a Last 16 clash between Caroline Wozniacki and Angelique Kerber, and Iga Swiatek redoing her Australian Open experience and making it better. OUR LINKS:Become a Friend of the Tennis Podcast to help us to produce the show year-round, and receive exclusive access to bonus podcasts throughout 2024, including Tennis Re-Lived and Grand Slam review shows, as well as monthly live shows on YouTube. Sign up to receive our Newsletter (daily at Slams and weekly the rest of the year, featuring Matt’s Stat, mascot photos, predictions, and more)Follow us on TwitterFollow us on Instagram (@thetennispodcast)Subscribe to our YouTube channel.Check out our ShopRead our New York Times profileTennis Podcast TerminologyFor Friends, Hannah's latest column is about Daria Kasatkina - https://bit.ly/HannahOnKasatkina Hosted on Acast.
