Eastbourne is the last-chance saloon of grass-court tournaments. For players looking for a last-minute tune-up before the Championships at Wimbledon, it’s pretty much the only game in town, or out of town. That’s doubly true in 2017, when this little seaside town event will be headlined by two big stars

NEW YORK—Tennis giveth and tennis taketh away. Both were on full display Friday afternoon in Arthur Ashe Stadium, where Madison Keys battled back from 5-1 down in the third set to defeat Naomi Osaka, 7-5, 4-6, 7-6 (3). “From being down the whole time, I knew I could come back,”

On Tuesday, Irina Falconi defeated Xinyun Han of China in the first round of the Australian Open, 6-1, 7-5. This is not new territory for the 26-year-old American, who has reached the second round of the season’s first Slam for the fourth consecutive year. But it remains a feat nonetheless,

After Iga Swiatek and Aryna Sabalenka faced off in the Madrid final last month, I wrote that while Swiatek had been the victor, the real winner had been the rivalry between the two women. The WTA’s No. 1 and 2 had staged their most dramatic encounter to date. It lasted

PARIS—Sloane Stephens’ 70-minute, 6-3, 6-1 win over Daria Kasatkina on Wednesday was a briefly fascinating duel and a quietly masterful performance, both of which were wrapped in the scores of a routinely one-sided result.
