Anisimova wins in Beijing, Sinner retires in Shanghai + Zverev's slow court conspiracy

from Tennis Weekly

Anisimova’s Double, Sinner’s Struggles & Zverev’s Court Speed Storm… It’s been another dramatic week on the ATP and WTA Tours as the Asian Swing heats up. Join Joel, Kim, and Chris at Tennis Weekly HQ as they break down all the big stories — from Amanda Anisimova capturing her second WTA 1000 title of 2025 in Beijing, defeating rising Czech star Linda Noskova in a thrilling final, to booking her spot at the WTA Finals in Riyadh. Is she now America’s No. 1 — and could she even be a future World No. 1?On the ATP side, Jannik Sinner’s Shanghai title defence ends in frustration as he’s forced to retire with cramps, reigniting debate around the gruelling Masters 1000 schedule and the increasingly slow court speeds. Alexander Zverev adds fuel to the fire, accusing tournaments of tailoring conditions to favour Alcaraz and Sinner — but does he have a point?In the second half, Chris chats with Tariq Naslawi, founder of Trace and co-creator of Collect, the official ATP collection game, before the team previews the Wuhan Open, where Sabalenka and Swiatek headline a blockbuster draw. Plus, Joel reacts to Iga Swiatek’s racket appearing in a zombie video game, Kim celebrates Rafael Nadal’s honorary doctorate, and Chris reveals our latest Babolat competition winner.TRACECollect is the official collection game for fans by the ATP and TraceSign up and start collecting from the Shanghai Masters at https://tinyurl.com/2u6azwyp SOCIALSFollow us on Twitter, Instagram, TikTok and YouTube, plus email the show [email protected] Tennis Weekly Merch through our Etsy store including limited edition designs by Krippa Design where all proceeds go towards the podcast so we can keep doing what we do!REVIEWS***Please take a moment to rate and review the show on Apple Podcasts, Spotify or wherever you get your pods.
