2011 Set For a Cracker

January 8, 2011 By Leigh Sanders 2 Comments

With the dust still settling in our memories over the stunning year that was 2010 the new tennis calendar is already upon us. It seems not too long ago that Federer was dismantling a shattered Rafa Nadal at London’s o2 Arena in the ATP Tour Finals. But with Christmas coming and going with its ever-rapid [...]

Around The Corner: A Newport Preview

July 4, 2010 By Mike McIntyre 2 Comments

With Wimbledon ended it seems odd to have any grass-court tennis left and yet that is exactly what we have in the week ahead in Newport, Rhode Island. A sparse field is set for the Campbell’s Hall of Fame Tennis Championship but there are a few names worth noting. Seeded first is American Sam Querrey. [...]

Roger Federer Makes Shocking Wimbledon Exit

June 30, 2010 By Mike McIntyre 2 Comments

Roger Federer has failed to advance past the quarter-finals for a second consecutive Grand Slam tournament. The defending champion and top-seeded Federer was beaten by Tomas Berdych 6-4, 3-6, 6-1, 6-4 on Wednesday. The shocking upset improves Berdych to 3-8 against Federer all-time, including a recent victory in Miami in March. The growing trend of [...]

NADAL STILL THE HEAVY FAVORITE AT ROLAND GARROS

June 1, 2010 By Mike McIntyre Leave a Comment

As the quarter-finals at the French Open are set to begin Tuesday in Paris, all eyes will be focused on front-runner Rafael Nadal. When looking at the remaining men left in the draw, this guy is the overwhelming favorite. World-number two Nadal is the four-time champion and has been on-fire once again this year on [...]

MARIA KIRILENKO IS LOOKING SWELL AT THE AUSSIE OPEN!

January 24, 2010 By Stephane Carter Leave a Comment

So is it a surprise that the ever swell looking Maria Kirilenko has reached the quarterfinals of the Australian Open? To me it is. I never expected her to reach the second week of the first Grand Slam tournament of the year.  But like I wrote in my “I’ll supply the love: Maria Kirilenko” post [...]

AUSOPEN PREVIEW: THE LADIES

January 17, 2010 By Mike McIntyre 1 Comment

When was the last time the women’s game had this much depth? I’m not knocking the WTA Tour, which in fact has had more depth in recent years than the men’s Federer vs. Nadal show. When I look at the Australian Open draw though, I’m just floored with the amount of talent out there. This [...]

January 17, 2010 By Mike McIntyre Leave a Comment

The first Grand Slam of 2010 is about to get started in Melbourne and with the draw announced we can now start to debate who will be crowned champion in two weeks time. Will it be someone from the usual suspects – a Federer or Nadal perhaps? Or will someone new like Fernando Verdasco or [...]

AROUND THE CORNER: AUSSIE OPEN TUNE UPS CONTINUE

January 11, 2010 By Mike McIntyre Leave a Comment

With the Australian Open just a week away, many players are using this time to rest from tournament play and work on their game in practice only. You won’t find Roger Federer, Rafael Nadal, Andy Murray or Andy Roddick playing any real matches this week. All of those top-dogs have already notched several wins under [...]
