Live from Wimbledon Day 7 - Is Naomi Osaka going to win Wimbledon?

On yet another dramatic day, Catherine and David were joined by Charlie Eccleshare of The Athletic straight after Coco Gauff’s victory over Belinda Bencic, just in the nick of time before the 11pm curfew. Charlie explains why Gauff is his pick for the title, but will she even be the favourite in the next round against Jessica Pegula? The main talking point is Naomi Osaka’s incredible victory over Aryna Sabalenka. How did Osaka turn their rivalry around to win? Where has this tennis been from her on grass? Can she now go on to win the title? And where does this result leave Sabalenka? There’s also chat about Karolina Muchova beating Barbora Krejcikova to ensure another new champion. In part two, (33:00 - 58:55) we cover an irritable Novak Djokovic and debate where his level is at, David fills us in on all the drama that went down between Felix Auger-Aliassime over Alejandro Davidovich Fokina, and there’s a play-by-play account of how Jan-Lennard Struff became the oldest first time Grand Slam quarter-finalist after some weird Hubert Hurkacz weirdness. As for Jannik Sinner, can he win this tournament without playing his best tennis? In part three, we cover some beef between Henri Patten and Reilly Opelka as the ATP plans sweeping changes to doubles, and there’s a look ahead to the Day 8 Order of Play. Can Eala back up her win over Swiatek?
