Madrid - Big names fall but Raducanu, Andreescu & Halep impress; Boris Becker jailed

Madrid is well underway, Catherine is there for Amazon Prime Video, and David and Matt talk about the big stories so far. How did Simona Halep beat Paula Badosa so easily? What do we make of Emma Raducanu's decision to split with Torben Beltz? And how do we judge Naomi Osaka on clay after one win and one defeat? On the men's side, there's chat about an exciting half of the draw featuring the returning Rafael Nadal as well as Novak Djokovic and Carlos Alcaraz. We also discuss a thrilling week from Frances Tiafoe in Estoril and maiden titles for Sebastian Baez and Holger Rune. Finally, we speak about the downfall of Boris Becker after he was sent to prison on charges related to his insolvency.
