Laver Cup – a roaring success
Laver Cup is the latest attempt in tennis at creating a new premium event, inspired by Ryder Cup in golf. The inaugural edition became a roaring success. When I first heard about Laver Cup I can admit I was skeptical. The Ryder Cup has been around since 1979 and to make an individual sport into […]
Interesting racquets spotted during Laver Cup
Laver Cup is the latest attempt in tennis at creating a new premium event, inspired by Ryder Cup in golf. Two teams filled with stars will battle it out over a weekend. The format is similar to Ryder Cup, but instead of Europe vs USA, in Laver Cup it is Europe vs the World. This […]
What is Hawk-Eye Live?
The 2017 Next Gen ATP Finals in Milan will feature live Electronic Line Calling on all lines on court during the tournament – something the ATP calls “Hawk-eye Live”. The Next Gen ATP Finals in Milan will be a testing ground for some innovations that the ATP are tinkering with. Here is a breakdown of […]
Where is Roger Federer?
Yesterday I covered some matches from US Open live on YouTube together tennis friends and the so called popcorn match of the eve was Federer vs Youzhny. A match that raised some concerns. Most of you who follow tennis already know that Federer won, but it’s the way he won that is slightly troubling for […]
Dimitrov Wins Cincinnati – No More Big Four?
Last night Grigor Dimitrov won his first masters title after defeating Nick Kyrgios in straights sets in the Cincinnati Masters final. It made me start thinking if the era of the big four is over… So who are the big four? Well, if you’ve been living under a rock, Roger Federer, Rafael Nadal, Novak Djokovic […]
Is Roger Federer Injured?
Roger Federer lost the Montreal final to rising star Alexander Zverev yesterday in a match where the Swiss legend didn’t look a hundred percent fit. Is he injured? If you watched the match yesterday it was hard not to notice Federer’s less than perfect movement in the second set. He slapped at balls, went for outrageous […]
Djokovic Out for Rest of 2017
It’s not coming as a huge surprise to most of us, but Djokovic will be resting for the rest of 2017 due to an elbow injury. He’s pretty much doing exactly what Federer did last year – taking an important time-out. Djokovic has had a tough season filled with speculations around the health of his […]
Muller shocks Nadal in Wimbledon 2017
In my predictions ahead of the tournament I had a hard time seeing Nadal go far in the Wimbledon draw. And in a marathon contest, he lost to Gilles Muller in five seats. Gilles Muller is having the year of his life (read about his racquet here), he has won two ATP tour titles (the […]
Wimbledon R2 2017: Retirement.com?
The strange trend of retirements persisted in day 2 of Wimbledon 2017. My draw predictions got hit badly a few times when in-form players left early. Both Roger Federer (read about Roger’s racquet or brand) and Novak Djokovic (read about coach Agassi or Lacoste sponsorship) got an easy pass into the next round when Martin Klizan (he tried the new […]
Wimbledon R1 2017: Wawrinka and Kyrgios out
Injury problems plagued an otherwise nice first day of tennis at Wimbledon 2017. My draw predictions got hit badly when Wawrinka and Kyrgios left the tournament early. The player of the day was young Daniil Medvedev (read about his Tecnifibre racquet here) who looked very confident in his 6-4, 3-6, 6-4, 6-1 win against Stan Wawrinka […]
