World University Games, Chinese Taipei 2017
(
1 2 3 4
)
(Preview)
I think the 2015 games were posted in the Junior thread. But as they're not juniors, maybe the general tennis part is better. (Can't find 2016 games but Joe Salisbury and Darren Walsh got gold medals in the doubles). Anyway, the teams have just been announced, for the end of August, and include a lot of p...

Ends up pleading guilty and gets community service sentence. Atp should now fire him, I'm all for giving people a chance but this type of crime means he has no place on atp board.

Ilkley Challenger
(Preview)
I would possibly have put this in the mens section but for now felt it sat under general. I had a coffee with someone who is heavily involved in Ilkley tournament today. He was telling me that the aspiration for Ilkley is to aim to get to a full ATP Tour 250 level event. They have had discussions with the AT...

Just recently down at my local club one of our members announced that she had managed to secure tickets (prior to Murray's withdrawal) for the ATP World Tour Finals - not sure for what day or time but I have a feeling it's one of the days before the semi-finals. She was clearly looking forward to it and du...

I've been trying to find a good tennis streaming site ever since Shanghai, when I tried to use a Russian site that had been working for me and it was down. I've tried lots of places, but none seem to actually show me the match that's playing. Any suggestions for streaming sites that are reliable? Ads aren...

Which tour do you follow most?
(

I thought for my amusement I would see how folks on this board sit in terms of their preferences of the different tours - what caught my interest was that when new entry lists go up, or dates come near, I have a perception of a lot more discussion and comment around which women are in the draw, near the cu...

As it says on the tin above, what is the genereal feeling on this? My feelings are well known in that I have almost zero interest in Doubles. I won't repeat why as there are sensitive people who are offended by my opinion. I do however feel the forum would benefit from it being separated from not only thre...

The true prestige ranking of tennis tournaments for a resume

There has been lots of GOAT talk recently by fans of Fed, Nadal and Novak. Each fanbase of is quickly trying to make valid arguments. For example, Novak and Fed do not have the singles Olympic gold medal. Nadal has never won the tour end finals. I believe the GOAT should not be drawn up from the Slam count...
