Harry Wendelken
(

)
(Preview)
I wrote a piece about up and coming junior Harry Wendelken this week on the back of a successful year. I spoke to him, his coach and his parents to try to get a rounded view on what it's like to be coming through as a junior. After a good showing for him at Sweden this week I thought it might be quite timely to po...

Bad news about Alex, I'm afraid. He's cracked a bone in his radius so he's going to be out for a few months. Such a shame as he was going so well.  http://instagram.com/p/qwXLw_KQl0/

Perhaps this could have gone in the US College thread but Ali doesn't appear to have his own thread yet, so I thought this achievement warranted this at least. Ali won the Hall of Fame Invitational for college players and so guaranteed himself a WC into the MD of the Newport ATP 250 next year. http://www...

It seems to me that Millie should have the ultimate honour of an Individual Player Thread Millie was a promising junior, but not an out-an-out star Now age 21, and having been in the US college system, she has developed really well her best points, the strength and power of her game. She's also improvi...

He was drafted in to take part in their regular Friday night exhibition match and turned up expecting to play some friendly light hearted doubles with some of the coaches...

He's beaten:Laurent Lokoli (WR 358/CH = 207 in April 2015) (3 & 5, 3/8),Gleb Sakhar...

According to OER and ATP we seem to have acquired a new player from AUS? Aged 29 with a current ranking of 806 (CH 702 in 2020). Anyone got any info on him and what this is all about - seems an odd move at this stage of his career?

Having just turned 13 ten days ago (born 31 October 2007), she is an extremely impressive player and athlete - a strong girl,...
