“We’re Still Favorites” Says Federer
Davis Cup Quarterfinals 2014…final day. Federer remains upbeat despite the Swiss loss yesterday against far less experienced Kazakh doubles team: “I’m actually very excited for tomorrow,” Federer said. “We are still the favorites for each singles match tomorrow, but with no more margin for error and we’re aware of that.” Thats the way to look […]
Germany Stuns France, Wavrinka loses
Davis Cup Quarterfinals 2014… Davis Cup is its own beast. Rankings means little, home court is vital, team spirit is suddenly everything. When you looked at the match-ups beforehand there were quite obvious favorites in all but one match (Great Britain vs Italy). But…this is Davis Cup. So it so happens that France, with Benneteau […]
In the Mail Today – Volkl Powerbridge 10 Mid
The last year I’ve been playing almost exclusively with Head Prestige IG MP and it’s probably the racket which I’ve had most consistent results with. Especially since I switched the grips to TK82S (Wilson shape) and added lead to the 3 and 9 o’clock positions, it’s been playing like a dream. A lot thanks to my […]
Djokovic rules the hard courts
It wasn’t an impossible bet by any means that Djokovic could win both Indian Wells and Miami. He did so beating Roger Federer in a nail-biting Indian Wells final and Rafael Nadal in a not so nail-biting Miami final. Yes, yesterdays final left me wanting something more, but Nadal looked sluggish and Djokovic played brilliantly […]
Nadal and Djokovic in Miami final?
It sure looks like we’re heading for a 40th match between world number 1 and 2, Rafael Nadal and Novak Djokovic in Miami. They sure are favourites in today’s upcoming matches, Nadal vs Berdych and Djokovic vs Nishikori. I think Nadal has a tougher task today. He has lost to Berdych before and the Czech […]
Indian Wells 2014 – Tennisnerd predicts…
ATP World Tour writes today that Nadal’s road to the title in Indian Wells look complicated. They’re right. He needs to get through Murray, Federer and Djokovic to win the title and with his absence from the hard courts since his injury in the Australian Open final, there should rightly be doubts about his ability […]
Federer Beats Djokovic, Berdych & Wins Dubai
Yes, dear Federer fans, he’s back in business! After coming back from a set down against both Djokovic and Berdych he emerged as the winner in ATP Dubai 500. The crowd was behind him all the way of course as could be expected pretty much anywhere he goes and maybe especially so in a city […]
The Hot Shot of the Year? Dimitrov again!
Dimitrov won the ATP 500 in Acapulco, Mexico, beating Andy Murray on the way to the final. That Dimitrov is a shot-maker of God-like standards, we all knew, but that he could keep it together for a tournament is a great sign for fans of his highly enjoyable playing style. The point above could very […]
Stan the Man – Grand Slam Champ
It was in many ways an awkward final to watch. First set: Wavrinka breaks early, plays well and hits the ball like a hammer. Still, Nadal gets three break points at 5-3. It seems like he’ll get back in the match. But Wavrinka shows his mental toughness, wins five straight points and takes the set […]
Rafa Too Good
It’s a familiar storyline – Rafael Nadal played his best match of the tournament against Roger Federer (you can see images, highlights and interview excerpts here). This means the bull from Manacor plays Stanislas Wavrinka in the final. A player he has never lost to. For us Federer fans, the 2014 edition of Australian Open […]
