Federer’s last match of 2011…
Was an exhibition in Abu Dhabi against Novak Djokovic that lasted 44 minutes and ended up with the scoreline 2-6 1-6 in the Serbs favor. It was Federer‘s first match since he won the ATP World Tour Championships and he mishit quite a few balls badly, likely due to a rusty racquet. Talking about his […]
The One and Only Federer
What a nice end to a bittersweet 2011 for Federer and us Fed fans! Let’s hope he can carry the 17-match momentum into 2012!
Tennisnerd Tweets Today
Been too busy to blog, but still some activity on Twitter! (Check it out and follow). To summarize my thoughts of the day so far: Have a hard time seeing Murray go very far in Cincinnati. He looks a bit uninterested. Maybe 2012 will be the year he gets it all together. Most improved player […]
Dark Thursday in Wimbledon
It’s hard to believe. Federer lost a 2-0 set lead to Jo-Wilfried Tsonga 6-3 7-6 4-6 4-6 4-6 and the last three sets he wasn’t even close of breaking the Frenchman. It was a magical effort by Tsonga, but a sad situation for us Fed fans who had looked forward to a 7th Wimbledon title. […]
Oh, the joy! The Wimbledon Line-up Today
Here are the amazing matches to look forward to today: Murray vs Gasquet – I think Murray is too good and Gasquet will surely get a flashback from being 2-0 sets up and serving for the match a few years ago. Gasquet has improved, but Murray looks determined to go far this Wimbledon. Nadal vs […]

Here’s my list of tennis booksyou have to read. I love reading about tennis, but a lot of the writing is dry and uninteresting. Since I’ve read a lot of the stuff on the tennis book market, I hope I can give you some valuable recommendations on tennis books you might’ve missed out on. Just […]
Tennis Tip of the Day: There’s Always An Option!
We are usually quite obsessed with working on our weaknesses. We want to improve shots we don’t feel very confident in, we want to hit that backhand technically correct, we want the volley to feel confident, we would like to add those extra miles per hour on the serve. This is all good. But sometimes […]
The Grass Season Starts: Halle and Queens
Today is the first official day of the 2011 grass court season and it’s not a bad one. The two main warm up events for Wimbledon are as usual Queens and Halle. The big question is of course which stars will come to play after a long and testing French Open, Federer (Halle), Nadal (Queens) […]
French Open: Nadal Too Good For Federer
It was excruciating at times for Federer fans such as myself, but in the end you just had to give it to Nadal who was too good on the most important points and at times played his very best clay court tennis in his 7-5 7-6 5-7 6-1 victory. But it was Federer who took […]
French Open Final: Nadal vs Federer
And so here it is, the match we’ve been waiting for, another grand slam final between Rafael Nadal and Roger Federer. In some way this final feels different then the previous ones, especially since they played their last GS final against each other in the 2009 Australian Open 2,5 years ago. A lot has happened […]
