Thiem Withdraws from Monte Carlo Masters
It’s perhaps not surprising to hear that Dominic Thiem withdraws from Monte Carlo Masters. After all, he hasn’t played since Dubai. The immediate response to hearing the news that Thiem withdraws from Monte Carlo Masters was that the foot injury he sustained at the Australian Open is still bothering him. But according to his agent, […]
Is Jannik Sinner an alien?
Is Jannik Sinner an alien? Alexander Bublik seemed to think so after his loss to him at the Miami Open. Bublik generously told Sinner after the match: “You’re not human! You’re 15 years old and you play like this.” Props to Bublik for a respectful way of dealing with a loss. It’s not like the match […]
Player to watch: Sebastian Korda
Sebastian Korda is the son of tennis star Petr Korda. He has recently climbed into the top 100 on the ATP Tour. Yesterday Sebastian Korda defeated Aslan Karatsev in a one-sided affair 6-3 6-0 (Karatsev was either injured or just tired of playing tennis, but that shouldn’t diminish Korda’s performance). This means Korda is in […]
Is Del Potro retired?
Is Del Potro retired? He’s not, but yesterday he announced that he is to undergo a 4th knee surgery to return to the tour. “Is Del Potro retired?” is one of the key searches on Google. You can understand why. Some time has passed since we saw the gentle giant from Argentina on a tennis […]
Zverev and Karatsev Winners
Alexander Zverev and Aslan Karatsev were winners on the ATP Tour last week. Zverev not a surprise, but Karatsev – yes! Aslan Karatsev made a name for himself during his run at the Australian Open a few weeks back. But when you see a grand slam surprise like that, you often think: “That’s probably a […]
Player to watch: Lloyd Harris
I have just finished writing about Lorenzo Musetti, when another player to watch pops up: Lloyd Harris. From qualifying to ATP 500 final. Lloyd Harris is 24 years old, is 6’4″ (193 cm) and centers a strong baseline game around a big serve. He has so far hit 71 aces in Dubai before he plays […]
Player to watch: Lorenzo Musetti
Lorenzo Musetti is definitely a player to watch. The Italian is in the semi-finals of the ATP 500 in Acapulco after some impressive wins. Lorenzo Musetti is having the best tennis week of his life in Acapulco, Mexico. The 19-year-old has only played 11 tour-level-matches but has already defeated some top quality players. He has […]
Babolat Pure Aero Rafa – The best looking racquet?
The Babolat Pure Aero Rafa is soon here. Is it the best looking racquet out there? I know several players that think so! You can’t deny that the Babolat Pure Aero Rafa makes people turn their heads. It might be too colorful to some players, but I think it looks just right! We have seen […]
Dominic Thiem Upset, Rafa Withdraws from Miami
Some tennis news: Dominic Thiem upset loss to Lloyd Harris and Rafa withdraws from Miami to focus on clay. Thiem has not looked himself since that foot-injury at the Australian Open. His win-loss record in 2021 so far is 5-4, which is far below his usual standard. On the other hand we should give props […]
Federer withdraws from Dubai
It was nice to have him back, right? But after his loss to Bashilashvili yesterday, it was announced that Federer withdraws from Dubai. Should the news that Federer withdraws from Dubai worry Federer fans? No, I don’t think so. He looked pretty sharp in his two three-set matches, but probably came to an understanding together […]
