## Resource

Catherine, David and Matt convene at Roland Garros for one last time in 2026 after Alexander Zverev won his first Grand Slam title, beating Flavio Cobolli in a five-set struggle. Part one - Our review of the final including both players’ nerves, how Zverev said his cramps helped him to ‘let go’, and whether Cobolli will have any regrets. Part two (26:07) - We discuss what it all means. Will Cobolli make it back to a major final? And will breaking his major duck change Zverev’s status in the sport? Part three (42:07) - We cover Katerina Siniakova and Taylor Townsend winning the women’s doubles title before looking ahead to the grass court season, including the return of Serena Williams in doubles at Queen’s.
