Unusually, many of the top singles players are also playing doubles here this week (i wonder if the appearance money has made it worthwhile!!). Even a certain Mr Federer has appeared in the draw with countryman Yves Allegro (WR38, WR40 on live rankings). Just for those of you interested the cut for th...

What happened to him? Was one of the top five clay players till 2005, but something went wrong from there on. Now he loses almost every match he plays - he even managed to get bagelled by Gilles Muller on Rebound Ace! He is yet to win a match this year and after the latest disater he went on to say - "I was...

Have been watching quite a bit of this over the last few days... Saw Thiemo De Bakker in action against Ljubicic yesterday. I was impressed, he's definately got the game to be top 100. Can hit big shots off both sides, especially the forehand and he works the points really well. Not afraid to come i...

Does anybody know anything about his schedule? Why hasn't he played any tournament so far? He would get some WC without a doubt. He should play some matches if he wants play for GB.

They're starting to introduce Hawkeye into more tour events which is great

Dubai will be using it for the ATP and WTA events there. No surprise really as Dubai is one of the richest tournaments. I wonder when Queens will get it ? I love Hawkeye, think it's great for the game...hopefully...

The ATP Houston event this year will be held on green clay, first ATP event to be held on the surface. It's to cut costs. Green clay is made from crushed stone and is a tiny bit faster than the red stuff and has a more uniform bounce.

Just as the use of ultra-skinny 'size zero' models have been the talking point of London Fashion Week, there are also concerns within women's tennis about body image. Zina Garrison, a former Wimbledon finalist and a "recovering bulimic", suggested last night that the obs...
