Mornin', and apologies to for failing to post a CC yesterday. It was my annual visit to the President's Box, which is the one day of the year when my wife Lisa actually gets interested in watching tennis. It may have something to do with exceptional lunch served in the

WATCH: Andrey Rublev defeats Lloyd Harris at Wimbledon.

Other than a head scratching 6-0 second set loss against world No. 178 Renata Zarazua, third-seeded Elina Svitolina has been rock solid in Paris. Twice a Roland Garros quarterfinalist, the Ukrainian has been flying well under the radar. According to the most recent UTR win probabilities, Svitolina sits just behind

It took Sofia Kenin four games to adjust to the blustery conditions on Wednesday in Toronto, but the American found a way to adjust to oust No. 6-seeded Elina Svitolina, 7-6 (2), 6-4. With the win, Kenin punches a ticket to her first Rogers Cup semifinals. "[Svitolina] has good hands,

STAY The good fortune that has come upon Flavia Pennetta's career of late is not quite flabbergasting but, nonetheless, surprising. After reaching the 2013 U.S. Open semifinals, her best result since has been, well, winning in Indian Wells. Someone sure knows when to peak. Not bad for one who became

MELBOURNE—We say it about many matches, but this time it was true: This one was over before it began. It was obvious from the start, and throughout, that Greta Arn, a 32-year-old Hungarian with a ranking of No. 92, was hopelessly outmatched against Serena Williams. Most of the time, Serena

Jack Sock, who had been sidelined since the beginning of the season following surgery, played and won his first match of 2015 against Yen-Hsun Lu in three sets. But the 22-year-old says he was glad that he missed the tour during January because his brother, Eric, had been in an

Nick Kyrgios says he will curb his unruly behavior on court but still wants to show his personality while playing. The 20-year-old could be suspended from the tour for six months if he incurs more than a set level of fines at ATP tournaments over the next six months. The

HOUSTON (AP) — Defending champion Fernando Verdasco beat 18-year-old Hyeon Chung 7-6 (2), 6-2 on Thursday in the second round of the U.S. Men's Clay Court Championship.

PARIS—Samantha Stosur says reuniting with coach David Taylor has helped her significantly. After working together for six years, the two parted ways in August 2013, but resumed their partnership this April. Stosur had worked with Miles Maclagan and Simon Rea during 2014 and part of 2015; she made the move

PARIS—Former college tennis star Steve Johnson says he has matured and thinks he has a shot at beating No. 8 Stan Wawrinka in the third round at Roland Garros. The 25-year-old American has reached the third round of a Grand Slam twice before, losing to Richard Gasquet at the 2012

The ATP tournament in Dubai this week just doesn’t feel the same with Roger Federer. The 17-time Grand Slam champion, who has won this tournament seven times, is currently out after undergoing arthroscopic knee surgery. It’s unclear when he’ll return to the tour. Dubai still has plenty of juice with

Novak Djokovic says he will have to play his best against Juan Martin del Potro in their highly-anticipated third rounder in Indian Wells. Djokovic has split his two most recent meetings with Del Potro, including a narrow victory against the Argentine in Acapulco two weeks ago. “You know, he's [a]

Milos Raonic knows what he wants to do at Wimbledon, even though he had a surprise first-round defeat to Thanasi Kokkinakis at Queen’s Club. In 2016 the Canadian won Queen’s Club, defeating Andy Murray in the final, and reached the final of Wimbledon, where he fell to Murray in straight

Andy Murray plans to play his scheduled charity exhibition against Roger Federer in the offseason, his mother, Judy, confirmed while participating at a kids coaching session. "He's going to be fine by then," she told BBC Scotland, but also said the three-time Grand Slam champion had not yet set a

On May 16, the 2019 NCAA Division I Men’s and Women’s Tennis National Championships will commence at the USTA National Campus in Orlando, Fla. And the only place to watch them—along with the 2020 and 2021 editions—will be on Tennis Channel. “Tennis Channel is the perfect home for the best

In May, reported The Telegraph, "the US Open put forward plans to experiment with coaching from the stands—in which players can ask for advice between points as many times as they want—in main-draw matches at Flushing Meadows." The new rule was approved by the Grand Slam board in Paris. But
