## Resource

Catherine, David and Matt are joined by The Athletic’s Charlie Eccleshare for a live show looking back on a dramatic finals weekend at Indian Wells.  Part one - WTA (00:00 - 34:39). We react to Aryana Sabalenka’s incredible match point-saving victory over Elena Rybakina, discuss where the match was won and lost, and consider what it means for their rivalry. Plus, a Backhand List update and analysis of where Iga Swiatek is at after her defeat to Elina Svitolina.  Part two - ATP (34:40 - 1:08:10). We cover Jannik Sinner’s incredible serving as he completed the set of big titles on hard courts and and a remarkable return to form for Daniil Medvedev who handed Carlos Alcaraz his first defeat of the season in the semi-finals. There’s also chat about the positives vibes we’re feeling about the current state of the ATP and yet more hindrance drama.  Part three - Miami Preview (1:08:11 - 1:23:52).
