Tour Catch-Up: King Carlos returns to No.1, Rybakina's AO revenge & dawn of a WTA Big 3

Kim and Chris are on the hand this week continuing to fly the flag without Joel (excused as it’s his birthday!) and roundup all the finals action from Indian Wells.

With Carlos Alcaraz regaining the World No.1 ranking and winning his 3rd Masters 1000 event, the young Spaniard has completed his return to the tour (and a career Sunshine Double already) with yet another title. Meanwhile, Elena Rybakina reversed her Australian Open Final defeat by beating Aryna Sabalenka to win her first WTA 1000 trophy, gaining another victory over top seed Iga Swiatek en route.

Kim and Chris also discuss how Sakkari and Sinner came up short in the semis, the longevity of Rohan Bopanna (and his coffee drinking), the GB squad for the upcoming Billie Jean King Cup Finals tie in Coventry, and reveal their predictions for the Miami Open which gets underway imminently.
