The BBC Radio 5 Live "Wimbledon Daily" podcast reviewed Day 9 of Wimbledon 2026, headlined by seven-time champion Novak Djokovic surviving a record-breaking, five-hour quarter-final. Djokovic won a deciding fifth-set tie-break to defeat third seed Felix Auger-Aliassime and reach yet another Wimbledon semi-final, though the panel questioned whether he has the physical reserves to overcome world number one Jannik Sinner next.

The episode, hosted by Katie Smith with Russell Fuller, Leon Smith and Marion Bartoli, also covered Alexander Zverev reaching his first Wimbledon quarter-final while facing a poor head-to-head record against Taylor Fritz. In the women's draw, Naomi Osaka's run ended at the hands of Karolina Muchova, who could become the third Czech woman in four years to win the title, while Coco Gauff again battled to a three-set win, this time over fellow American Jessica Pegula.
