I've heard that the ITF plan to scrap satellites completely from 2007 onwards so the lowest level will be futures. What do you think about this ? I think it's a good idea points-wise, I've always thought it was a bit tough on players having to defend all their points from 4 weeks of a satellite in...

Match is to be played at 7 on Grand Stand (another late on for all you in Britian) Another real interesting match Henman has only lost a set this tourny Tursunov has gone 3 sets every match. He finished his match last night at around 1:45 winning 6(10)-7 7-5 6-3 Tursunov is going to be very sl...

Off the tennis court he enjoys modelling and adding to his collec...

Gimlestob seems to be quite friendly with a few brits and is now teaming up with henman for the doubles. Given the american's recent form i think he and henman have a decent shot at this, though they do face tough opponents in the russians. I think it will be played tomorrow....

Has anyone been following Andre Agassi's progress here ? He had a stunning 7-6[10], 6-0 win over Xavier Malisse in rd1 in 110 degree heat, serving 18 aces [!] in the process. In rd2 he beat Bastl 6-7, 6-2, 6-1 after a scrappy start. Agassi said "As the match went on, I picked up my level and I'm feeling...
