Dan is in the main draw singles but for now we just have the doubles draw. For top seeds Joe & Rajeev don't have the kindest opener, even though the pairing they play don't play much doubles in general but are top singles players - and one is the very top of players. L16: (1) Rajeev Ram (USA) & Joe S...

I was wondering if people might share their views on this? I tend to read both atp and Wta related posts on this forum, but I've always, very clearly followed the mens game with a passing interest in womens. For me , when I was young and playing tennis, as a lad, my heroes where the Borg, McEnroe, Connors e...

This is the top graded open event this week, with significant British interest including surprisingly (given it is only a Grade 2) Matilda Mutavdzic. Kylie Bilchev is into final qualifying, but Will Nolan lost out at the same stage Boys R1 (L32) Biagio Gramaticopolo (ITA) v Lui Maxted Girls R1 (L32...
The Winter Cup season started this weekend with qualifying for the under 12s. The girls team of Hannah Klugman, Amalia Widdowson and Sophie Bekker came through a competitive match with the host nation France recording a 3-0 win, and backed that up with a comfortable 3-0 result against Hungary (2 &...
The city of Almetievsk is in Tatarstan, deep inside Russia, and this event has attracted just 2 non-Russians in either main draw. One of them is Peter Alam, who unsurprisingly has teamed up with the other (a Swiss lad) for the doubles. Peter's round 1 match is last on court today. R1 (L32) (WC) Vladisla...

Any coaches, players or parents here can give me an actual reason why the LTA refuses to acknowledge foreign help they have received with their players etc etc? I know that most of the Br...
