The Race to Turin is ON! Join the Tennis Weekly gang as they look back on all the key action from the Paris Masters, which saw Alex Zverev serve up a masterclass (quite literally) to defeat Ugo Humbert and win his 7th ATP Masters 1000 Title. Elsewhere, Diana Shnaider continued her brilliant season with a win over Britain’s Katie Boulter in Hong Kong to capture her 4th title of the year, and Viktoria Golubic ended an 8 year title drought with a win at the Jiangxi Open.

Joel also tests Kim, Chris and the listeners to an ATP Finals themed Par For The Courts, as the final places are up for grabs with action this week in Metz and Belgrade on the ATP Tour.

British bonanza! We’re all back at Tennis Weekly HQ to look back on the last week on tour, which saw Jack Draper winning the biggest title of his career in Vienna and rising to a career high ranking of 15. Giovanni Mpetshi Perricard also made it a good week for this season’s breakthrough acts, winning Basel to capture his second title of the season too.

Meanwhile, Qinwen Zheng continued her stellar season with more silverware in Tokyo and Olga Danilovic took home the Guangzhou trophy, six years after her maiden tour title.

The trio are also joined by coach Patrick Mouratoglou to talk Ultimate Tennis Showdown Grand Finals as well as discuss the recent news of Maria Sharapova’s induction into the Tennis Hall of Fame and whether this is justified in light of her doping ban, and they reflect on the permanent addition of on court coaching to the ATP and WTA Tours as of January next year.

And another awesome rivalry comes to an end! This week, Rafael Nadal and Novak Djokovic played their final match on a tennis court in Saudi Arabia at the Six Kings Slam to bring the curtain down on their epic head to head. Join Joel and Chris as they reflect on this match up along with all the other tennis talk from the week as Tommy Paul, Daria Kasatkina and a 36 year old (!) Roberto Bautista Agut won titles on the tour across Europe and Asia.

Chris also gives the inside scoop on what it’s like to attend the Nordic Open in Stockholm - and whether he was able to track down Magnus Norman for an interview. Elsewhere, Danielle Collins announced that she will play on the WTA Tour next year after postponing her end of season retirement, Aryna Sabalenka took over from Iga Swiatek as the World Number 1 at the top of the rankings, and we remark on Dominic Thiem’s last dance on a tennis court as he plays his final match at the Vienna Open.
