Russia won the Billie Jean King Cup and Matt had himself quite a day.
A last minute selection change from Russia did not go down well with Switzerland, and Matt was in the middle of one of the more tense press conferences we’ve witnessed. Hear it all on this edition of The Tennis Podcast.
And if that’s not enough, Matt sat down with Billie Jean King for a chat on the pod about her memories of this event, her time as captain, and her experience in Prague.
Finally, we reflect on the significance of Russia's victory and give our impressions of the week as a whole.
