The ATP Final – Djokovic vs Murray
The only logical final before the ATP World Tour Finals was the the showdown between Murray and Djokovic and before the semi-finals it seemed like the stars were still aligned for it with Murray playing Raonic and Djokovic vs Nishikori. But Milos Raonic was so close, so close in beating Andy Murray and should really […]
ATP Finals Day 4 – Wawrinka and Murray win
In the longest match of the ATP World Tour Finals so far, world number one, Andy Murray, outlasted Kei Nishikori in a three-set marathon that lasted 3 hours and 20 minutes by the scoreline of 6-7 6-4 6-4. In the end, Murray’s impressive fitness got him the win countless of long rallies where he forced […]
ATP Finals Day 3 – Thiem vs Monfils, Djokovic vs Raonic
In the closest match of the ATP World Tour Finals so far, youngster Dominic Thiem managed to mentally outlast Gael Monfils in a topsy-turvy affair that ended 6-3 1-6 6-4. The reason I wrote “mentally outlast” is that Thiem is 22-3 in deciding sets this year while Monfils has a history of wavering in matches […]
ATP Finals Day 2 – Nishikori trashes Wawrinka
In the first match of day 2 of the ATP World Tour Finals, I feel a bit sorry for the audience who probably expected a tough fight between Wawrinka and Nishikori, but the Swiss US Open champion didn’t look like a half of himself today and was really slow-footed during his 2-6 3-6 loss. Maybe […]
ATP World Tour Finals Day 1
I mostly write about racquets and strings on this blog, but I can’t really not mention the last tournament of the year – the ATP World Tour Finals. I was lucky to attend last year and get a few moments with Roger Federer after his win against Kei Nishikori in the round robin and I […]
Djoko meltdown, Murray number one?
Andy Murray is playing the game of his life and just qualified for the Shanghai Masters final after winning another encounter, this time against Gilles Simon, in straight sets. He might also be edging closer to becoming the world’s top-ranked player soon, because the current world number one, Novak Djokovic, has just returned from elbow […]
Is Novak Djokovic Losing his Game?
The last Grand Slam of the year is here – and even though Novak Djokovic may still be a favourite for many fans and professionals alike, it is impossible to deny that lately we have not been seeing the same man play. Now the world‘s #1 is still ridiculously far ahead with his ATP points standing at […]
Olympic gold to Andy Murray
After more than four hours of gruelling tennis, Andy Murray won his second Olympic gold medal after beating Juan Martin Del Potro in the final 7-5, 4-6, 6-2, 7-5. It was a thriller of a match, but you couldn’t help but feel that Murray, with his easier road to the final and outstanding physique, would outlast […]
Del Potro beats Djokovic in Rio Olympics
If you didn’t watch the match, try to find the highlights (sadly, due to Olympic airing rights, the highlight reel I saw previously has been removed). Del Potro was back to good old US Open 2009 form and his forehand was painting all corners in his massive 7-6 7-6 upset of the world number one […]
Wimbledon 2016: Murray wins
Wimbledon is over for this year and I’m sure the home crowd is elated that Andy Murray won his second title and his third grand slam, again creating the feeling of the big four (edging Stan Wawrinka by one slam). Murray won a match that was never in doubt: 6-4 7-6 7-6. I predicted Murray as […]
