Paolini shocks to Dubai delight, Murray drops retirement hint, Netflix $lam takes Vegas

All good swings come to an end as we're back to wrap up both the Middle Eastern and Golden Swings on the ATP and WTA Tours.

The WTA1000 event in Dubai saw a surprise winner in Jasmine Paolini whilst top seeds Iga Swiatek and Coco Gauff both fell at the hands of eventual finalist Anna Kalinskaya. Meanwhile, in Doha, Karen Khachanov fended off Next Gen breakout star Jakub Mensik to capture his sixth career title, and out in Los Cabos Jordan Thompson came back from the brink to win double crowns in dramatic style. Sebastian Baez also picked up another title on the clay with a solid week in Rio.

Kim also tests Joel and Chris with a difficult Mysterious Player, and the trio discuss the upcoming Netflix Slam in Las Vegas as well as Holger Rune and Patrick Mouratoglou’s rekindled coaching relationship. They also debate whether the Golden Swing should be treated to a Masters series in the future.
