BJK Cup Finals Day 5 - Heartbreak and hope as final is set; Matt meets Billie Jean King

The two most recent runners-up, Switzerland and Australia, will play the Billie Jean King Cup Final on Sunday after another absorbing day of action in Glasgow. David and Matt discuss the way in which Storm Sanders and Harriet Dart stepped up for their teams, whether they can take this form onto the tour, a curious team selection from the Czechs, and why Sunday’s final matters so much to both teams. Elsewhere, to top off a great day, Matt speaks to Billie Jean King about her time in Glasgow, her hopes for this event, Coco Gauff, and the tennis calendar.Want to go watch the Bille Jean King Cup Finals this week in Glasgow? Tickets are available now.Friends of the Tennis Podcast help us to produce the show year-round, and receive exclusive access to bonus podcasts throughout the year, including Tennis Re-Lived, listener questions, and Grand Slam review shows. Become a FriendSign 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)Check out our ShopRead our New York Times profile Hosted on Acast.
