With everyone still recovering from the very late finish to Rafael Nadal vs Novak Djokovic, Wednesday dawned with Amelie Mauresmo\\u2019s press conference, and Catherine was there to ask her about why the scheduling has favoured men\\u2019s matches over women\\u2019s matches this tournament. Mauresmo\'s comments - that it\\u2019s because men\\u2019s tennis is more appealing - cast a big shadow over the day\\u2019s play and we talked about why they were so damaging and disappointing on the pod.

Elsewhere, we discuss Iga Swiatek\'s form, whether Jessica Pegula can do even better than Grand Slam quarter-finals, how Daria Kasatkina and Casper Ruud both broke new ground, and Marin Cilic\'s continued resurgence.
