Tennis Unfiltered

James Gray, Calvin Betton and George Bellshaw are all back around the microphones to discuss another week of tennis news - and as we always say, what a week!

Here's what they talked about

- Jannik Sinner crushed his pigeon Alexander Zverev in the men's final to claim a fifth straight Masters title

- Eight years after breaking through as a 15-year-old, Marta Kostyuk finally won the biggest title of her career and then of course failed to shake hands with her Russian opponent Mirra Andreeva

- Calvin had to coach both sides of semi-final but the match was marred by a horrific warm-up injury...

- ...but Henry Patten and Harri Heliovaara did at least win the title a day later to sweeten the pill a little

- Kei Nishikori announces his retirement (and it's not fake news this time)

- Jack Draper is out of the French Open with a new injury

- Novak Djokovic is back in Rome

And so much more!

- Has a sickness bug ruined our chances of understanding the WTA power rankings at Madrid?

...Swiatek has a new coach, picking up Emma Raducanu cast-off Francisco Roig...

...who was on trial with Giovanni Mpetshi-Perricard and didn't even mention that he was leaving to the Frenchman...
