I thought of a new tennis team competition today, based around the UEFA Champions League Format. I took the teams from the 19/20 Round of 16, this gave me 4 x English and Spanish teams, 3 x German and Italian teams and 2 x French teams.

Hi there, Some of you may remember me as the guy who set up a British Tennis website (Britennis) and who was quite active on here in around 2016. I ran the site for about six months, but it didn't bring in any money, and the time-consuming nature of maintaining the site meant I had to give it up and prioritis...

Rusedski faces Tursunov in rd1 and could face I Minar/K Kim in rd2. He's in the same quarter as nemesis Thomas Johansson. The draw could have been worse but he could have done with avoiding Johansson. Should reach the quarters though

I read on the BBC/Sport/Tennis website that David Mercer has passed away at the age of 70. He was well known as an umpire and commentator on radio and television. He umpired the 1984 Wimbledon mens singles final between John McEnroe and Jimmy Connors. RIP and thoughts go out to his family.
