The Center Court at the Paris Masters tournament buzzes, literally. I arrived at Le Palais Omnisport de Bercy last Tuesday, late morning. Spectator numbers were sparse, and the sound was the first thing I noticed. Sitting alone in my seat, sans neighbours, I could hear a powerful hum, as though

It’s official: The clay season is now the high point of the tennis year. Try as we might in the U.S, it’s the spring European circuit that has provided the most drama, the most tension, and the highest level of play for four years running. It shouldn’t be that surprising,

Having just played his final match, Rafael Nadal would surely appreciate these words from a speech made by President Theodore Roosevelt: The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes

"That’s where both Rafa and myself said, ‘OK, enough of this already.’ Let’s get back to 100 percent, enjoy tennis, enjoy the practice. Not just practice, treatment, match, treatment. All the time all you’re doing is fighting the fire.” When Roger Federer said these words near the end of the

In the span of a Sunday afternoon, a tournament to forget became one that won’t be leaving the minds of tennis fans anytime soon. That’s the thing about the Slams. Even one as beleaguered as this year’s Wimbledon still has more to offer that just about any sporting event—good, bad,

Hi Steve, Maybe there's hope for me as a paparazzo after all. Here's the picture you requested of Tom Tebbutt, complete with the famous canary yellow eyeglasses. I even got some mock multi-tasking for the camera. Quite a feat, because the Globe and Mail's tennis writer usually likes to stay

WATCH: Cirstea scored her first of two straight wins over Caroline Garcia at the BNP Paribas Open last week.

The 2024 clay-court swing has yielded numerous intriguing storylines, all of which are set to converge at Roland Garros next week.

LONDON—We seem to have turned a corner in the weather here in the SW19—wait, sorry, I swear that’s going to be my last fatuous mention of the local postal code to prove that I know something about Wimbledon. Whatever you want to call this place, it’s sunny here at the

Vic Braden wasn’t drawn to tennis by watching the pros play. He wasn’t inspired by the elegance he saw in its strokes. And he didn’t play because his parents had played before him; Braden’s father was a coal miner who didn’t belong to the country club in Monroe, Mich., the

“Andy Murray should follow Roger Federer’s example,” the headlines read last July in London, after Great Britain’s best player limped out of Wimbledon with a hip injury. Former No. 1 Boris Becker, as well as one of Murray’s own former coaches, Miles McLagan, advised him to do what Federer had

I went round to the ESPN Zone restaurant on Times Square about a week ago to catch up with the Bryan Brothers, who were fresh off their doubles triumph at the Australian Open. Last year at this time, they had just completed the first leg of what they would later

NEW YORK—Roger Federer has a bucket list, at least where tennis is concerned. Given where he’s already been and what he’s already accomplished, it’s undoubtedly much smaller than most people’s. Where simply getting to Melbourne for the Australian Open would be thrilling for some, he won the event six times.
