Welcome to This Sporting Planet, your definitive source for 'The World's View of Sport'. 🌍🎙️ Join your hosts Natalie Sawyer (UK), Edward Russell (Singapore), and Todd Harris (USA) as they look back at some of the best conversations from the last few months in this first of a two-part "Best Bits" series. They revisit some of the biggest stories in the world, including: Tennis's New Era: With the US Open on the horizon, we look back on a chat about the "modern classic" rivalry between Jannik Sinner and Carlos Alcaraz. We hear from Novak Djokovic, who called Alcaraz "not normal", and discuss how these two players are defining a new era of tennis. Football Glory: We analyse Arsenal's first European trophy win in 18 years, a "defensive masterclass" against Barcelona. This segment features an exclusive clip from our chat with Lianne Sanderson, a member of the 2007 winning team. F1 Driver Chaos: We revisit the "driver chaos" at Red Bull Racing with former F1 driver Karun Chandhok, who critiques the team's "brutal" mid-season changes that saw a driver lose his seat after just two races. We also feature a clip from our exclusive chat with Williams driver Alex Albon about his team's future.
