Catherine, David and Matt catch up after an incredible day spent watching Mary Carillo and Roger Federer get inducted into the International Tennis Hall of Fame.
Part one - We discuss our amazing experience in Newport, why Mary Carillo means so much to us, the moment Mirka introduced Roger, and how the Hall of Fame totally won us over.
Part two (30:29) - We cover some more pre tournament press conferences as the likes of Novak Djokovic, Arthur Fils, Elena Rybakina, Amanda Anisimova and Iga Swiatek spoke to the media. Plus, new USTA boss Craig Tiley was quizzed on some important event issues.
Part three (47:21) - A look ahead to the day one order of play which feels like quite a soft launch.
