Murray beats Kohlschreiber after epic tie-break
Philipp Kohlschreiber (who still swings the legendary Wilson Six One 95 line successfully) is one of those players who possess more talent than his results shows. He has the skill set to beat the best but often seem to lack the resolve and the mental toughness. Never was this more evident than yesterday, when he […]
Donskoy beats Federer with Babolat Pure Drive
Few outside the tennis nerd die-hards know about Evgeny Donskoy. But yesterday he played the match of his life and upset Roger Federer in the ATP tournament in Dubai, saving match points and winning a nail-biter 3-6 7-6 7-6.

Robin Haase Racquet
Robin Haase has the talent to play big game tennis, but he often seems to let himself down. Not so against Tomas Berdych in Dubai.

Casper Ruud and Dominic Thiem showed some big hitting tennis yesterday at Rio Open. This is the highlight reel from TennisTV showing Thiem’s tweener and other highlights from the quarter-finals.

Victor Estrella Burgos Tennis Racquet
Victor Estrella Burgos is 36 years old in August but is still playing great tennis and won his third straight Quito Open a couple of weeks ago.

Nicolas Mahut Racquet
Nicolas Mahut is perhaps more famous as the doubles partner of Pierre Hughes-Herbert, or the guy who lost the longest tennis match in history (against John Isner in Wimbledon 2010) but he is also a previous Boys Wimbledon champion and has won four singels titles, all on grass. This means he can obviously play also […]
