Carlos Alcaraz wins Miami Masters
For you who didn’t think this guy was the “real deal”, he just made another statement. Carlos Alcaraz wins Miami Masters. Carlos Alcaraz wins the Miami Masters after beating Casper Ruud 7-5 6-4 in the final.

Is this the new Kyrgios?
Our guest contributor Colan Surratt was very impressed by the Kyrgios beatdown 6-3 6-0 of Andrey Rublev in Miami Masters. He asks himself “Is this the new Kyrgios?” “He beat Rublev 3 and 0 in less than an hour…everybody else better watch out!” I exclaimed as a buddy showed me Nick Kyrgios’ 2nd round result […]
Elina Svitolina on TopCourt
Ukrainian tennis star Elina Svitolina joins the TopCourt pro player training platform. She will teach the return, the backhand and more. Svitolina is a new addition to the platform that already has plenty of tennis stars. Denis Shapovalov is next for example and I wrote about Dimitrov’s one-handed backhand course here and Kyrgios forehand and tweener […]
Ash Barty Retires
The biggest and perhaps most surprising piece of tennis news this week was that Ash Barty retires. She leaves the sport as number 1. It’s rare that an athlete retires from a sport at their height of their abilities. Ash Barty won Wimbledon 2021 and Australian Open a few months ago. It was her fourth […]
Miami Masters 2022 Draw
The Miami Masters 2022 draw is out. Rafa is taking a break after a gruelling start to the season, but what about the rest? Qualifiying is under way so the draw is not yet complete. I will break it down with some commentary on my YouTube channel soon. But you can already now take a […]
Medvedev Loses the Top Spot
The reign of Daniil Medvedev as the best male tennis player in the world did not continue long – at least not this time. Medvedev, a 26-year-old Russian, took over the top place for the first time in his career last week from Novak Djokovic, but Djokovic retook the top spot the week after Medvedev’s […]
How do you beat Nadal in 2022?
The question of “How do you beat Nadal in 2022?” remains valid. Sebastian Korda was close to the answer, but choked in the end. It was close. But he is still undefeated. After a timid first set, Korda threw everything but the kitchen sink at a struggling Nadal. The American’s talended ball-striking took Nadal by […]
Zverev’s penalty
In Acapulco, Alexander Zverev attacked an umpire (he didn’t hit him directly, but it was close enough). But what was Zverev’s penalty? The attack wasn’t pretty and the tennis world seemed to agree that some kind of suspension was in order for hothead Zverev (he still has his abuse allegation from the ex-girlfriend, so this […]
Mixed bag 3 – Federer, Barty, and Thiem Update
A new Tennisnerd mixed bag is up. It covers the most recent tennis news, like a Federer, Barty and Thiem update. There weren’t many positive tennis news stories for this edition (#3) of the Mixed bag. The Federer, Barty and Thiem update were, as you can imagine, related to their injury status. ?? Not all […]
Novak’s stretch combo
Our guest tennis analyst, Evan Gadreau is a prolific writer. Here are some of his findings from the recent Djokovic matches. We call it Novak’s stretch combo. Let the chips fall where they may… This piece will be small. I have bigger fish to fry at the moment. Four kids on vacation week rampaging around […]
