STICKY:
Links to Internet streams
(Preview)
I've noticed that when matches are streamed there are often people looking for links, so thought it would be useful to sticky some key links for easy reference. Please add other links which may be useful for others http://www.lshunter.tv/tennis-live-streaming-video.html http://www.atdhe2...

Does anyone know what's happened to STEVEN. He hasn't posted since 19th Feb, hasn't updated the Top 25 tables since 21st Feb and hasn't tweeted since 22Feb. I know Steven is omnipresent, but he rarely fails to reveal himself for so long. Steven, can you hear us?

Strongest Nation?
(
1 2 3 4 5 … 47
)
(Preview)
For my own amusement, I thought I would try and keep track of the top tennis nations over the course of the year and see where GB stacked up. Being honest, my main interest is the mens game, so I planned to track the week by week average rankings of the top 10 players in each of the key countries and see if GB ma...

Money Tournaments

This is a duplicate from another thread but I suddenly thought it deserved a thread of its own, maybe even as a reference tool for British players (I talked to one a few months ago who had no idea of the scope of money available elsewhere in individual tournaments - team tennis gets quite a lot of press but...

I've searched and I think we are missing a topic for this. It's really quite an important part of the British Tennis landscape and should be followed on this forum. Clearly it's never going to be as big as College Tennis in the states, but we do have quite a few aspiring professionals in the BUCS system. M...

Winter County Cup

I found out - mainly by asking why the ITF junior final was on Friday rather than Saturday - that the winter county cup(open age)is on this weekend. I did find it a bit strange that it is a 3 day event starting on Friday morning, especially when some of the lesser counties will not have 6 pro players so they w...

I saw the article on the BBC website:- http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/tennis/18479244 Does someone think that he actually did this on purpose, or are they just rying to make a fast buck from him and the media circus? Be interested if anyone knows whether it's the official accusing him or someone el...

UTR Tennis Tournaments (in Britain)

So, Brighton is hosting a UTR tennis tournament with £1800 for the winner, decent money all the way down, prizes for the divisional winners, host families, etc. etc. It seems to be a men/women mixed event (based purely on UTR ranking), which is interesting. Is this a completely new thing? Or have I jus...

It seems that we've had a couple of specific threads for certain players but that a general thread might also be a good idea, so it's bit more all-encompassing. Anyway, best wishes to Sam Murray who's just had her wrist operation today, I believe. Hoping you have a speedy recovery and enjoy a bit of dow...

On the grounds that occasionally someone does something quite extraordinary that seems to merit attention but doesn't fit into any other thread, would the mods be all right with this as a thread? If so, may I nominate Gilles Simon as a worthy opener? A few days ago, he was on crutches and the assumption...

Borg forced to sell his trophies

BBC article:
Tennis legend Bjorn Borg is selling the five Wimbledon trophies he won between 1976 and 1980.
Borg, who retired at 26, is reported to have established a £40m fortune during his career but has since been through two divorces and a bankruptcy.

When board members post things like "The LTA scrapped most of the futures events" or "The LTA scrapped the bonus scheme" etc it must be a decision from either the Chie...

There are TONS of potential people to note here. I'd been keeping a list but it's not complete and so I've given up.... So just a little shout out today to Andy Bettles who seems to be doing a great job in Svitolina's corner, at the Aussie open. Good to see him, as one of our college boys, making a good living...
