Written by: Jonas Eriksson |

It’s hard not to feel a great deal of sympathy for Argentina’s Juan Martin del Potro after his management team confirmed that he had undergone another knee operation after feeling discomfort over recent months.

That’s the question right now, isn’t it? How do you beat Novak Djokovic? I thought Bautista-Agut might have the answers, but… Last night at the Western and Southern Open, Djokovic visibly struggled with a stiff neck, he wasn’t moving quite as well and Bautista-Agut was playing great tennis.

After watching Stan Wawrinka in his first match after the COVID break, I can safely say that “Stan the Man” is back. It’s perhaps a dramatic headline for a win over a player who is just inside the top 200 players in the world, but judging by the ball striking “Stan the Man” is back […]

Written by: Jonas Eriksson |

Last night, Janko Tipsarevic’s last match on the ATP tour took place in the quarter-finals of Stockholm Open. We say goodbye and celebrate his career.

Andy Murray Needs to Tweak his Game

Written by: Jonas Eriksson |

Andy Murray needs to tweak his game. Or? My point is that it would benefit him to play more aggressively and save his body for more years on tour. Murray won his first tour match in quite a while against Tennys Sandgren in Zhuhai, China. It was a hard-fought match for two sets, but Murray […]
