It was a historic Ladies’ Final on Centre Court — but probably not in the way anyone imagined when the day began. Iga Swiatek is your Wimbledon champion after a jaw-dropping 57-minute double bagel over Amanda Anisimova, wrapping up her sixth Grand Slam title in ruthless style. It’s the first time we’ve seen a women’s final won 6-0, 6-0 since Steffi Graf crushed Natalia Zvereva at the 1988 French Open.

Joel and Chris are here to break down exactly what went down in a match everyone thought would be much tighter. They’ll chat about what this win means for Swiatek’s season and why she’s just so unstoppable when it matters most at majors, having lost only two games across her semi-final and final at The Championships. And what about Anisimova? How does she pick herself up from such a tough loss — and can we expect to see her back on this stage anytime soon?

Plus, there was even more history on the doubles court: Julian Cash and Lloyd Glasspool pulled off the first all-British men’s doubles title in 89 years. And we’re counting down to the mouthwatering clash between Carlos Alcaraz vs Jannik Sinner — bring it on!

Kim and Chris catch up on the men's semi final action from Day 12 at Wimbledon, which saw Jannik Sinner deliver a commanding performance at Wimbledon today, defeating Novak Djokovic in straight sets to reach his first final at the All England Club. The Italian's aggressive baseline play and relentless pressure proved too much for the seven-time champion, whose movement appeared hampered. Earlier, defending champion Carlos Alcaraz battled past Taylor Fritz in four sets under scorching conditions on Centre Court.

The result sets up a mouth-watering final between Sinner and Alcaraz on Sunday. Kim and Chris preview this blockbuster encounter, reflecting on how much the recent Roland Garros final result will weigh on Jannik Sinner's mind as he looks for revenge on his rival. They also catch up on the mixed doubles final from Thursday, announce the latest in the Collect A Set challenge and taste test the pasta with strawberries recipe as recently made famous by Wimbledon finalist Iga Swiatek.

It’s Ladies’ Semifinals Day at Wimbledon — and it did not disappoint. Amanda Anisimova delivered one of the performances of the Championships, battling past World No. 1 Aryna Sabalenka in a stunning upset. Join Joel and Chris as they break down why Sabalenka keeps stumbling at the business end of Grand Slams and unpack the remarkable story of Anisimova’s comeback after her mental health sabbatical. They also tackle the debate around Sabalenka’s so-called “dominance” — and whether ranking points alone tell the whole story.

In the other semifinal, Iga Swiatek put on a ruthless clinic to dismantle Belinda Bencic and book her spot in her first Wimbledon final. The duo dig into what’s clicking in Swiatek’s grass-court game, whether she’s finally shed the “clay-court specialist” label, and how her experience in major finals could play a role against Anisimova, who’s about to contest her first. Plus, they preview the Men’s Semifinals: Novak Djokovic takes on Jannik Sinner in a Roland Garros rematch, while defending champion Carlos Alcaraz faces off against Taylor Fritz.
