The grass court season is well underway and it was a big week of British success with Jack Draper winning his first career title in Stuttgart and Katie Boulter defending her title in Nottingham. Catherine, David and Matt cover it all and David speaks to Draper's coach, Wayne Ferreira, to find out more about their partnership, and what to expect of Draper in the future. Elsewhere, Emma Raducanu's decision to turn down an Olympics wildcard is debated, Matteo Berrettini's run to the Stuttgart final is covered, and we review s'Hertogenbosch titles for Alex de Minaur and Liudmila Samsonova.
