NEW YORK—How can tennis fans keep life interesting when Serena Williams plays? We might want to start ranking her blowouts. The world No. 1 has won 22 bagel sets this season, and the majority of the matches she plays aren’t even remotely competitive. That’s not supposed to be the case,

Given the chance to move to Los Angeles to prepare a team for its debut season, it's easy to see why Eni Aluko has left Aston Villa for Angel City. "There's no rain and snow in May," the former England international beamed. "L.A. is a city that I think we

HIGHLIGHTS: Andy Murray d. James Duckworth, 6-3, 6-4

Retired ATP pros Greg Rusedski and Tim Henman argue established champions like Roger Federer and Andy Murray shouldn't be written off at the biggest events. Rusedski pointed to Federer's win against Novak Djokovic at the ATP Finals, his first against the Serb since 2015. “They don't get on great, so

Novak Djokovic's comprehensive 6-3, 6-3 win over Rafael Nadal in Key Biscayne gave the Serb his fourth Miami title (and the Spaniard his fourth Miami final-round defeat), his 18th Masters title, and his second career Indian Wells-Miami double. And perhaps even more down the road:

MELBOURNE, Australia (AP)—Roger Federer’s reticence to join other players in voicing complaints about issues affecting the men’s game came under fire again at the Australian Open on Monday. Former No. 3-ranked Nikolay Davydenko said he didn’t understand why the 16-time Grand Slam champion wasn’t supporting the push to address player

In the bottom-line world of pro sports, we tend to judge players—especially young ones—by one thing: Whether they won or lost. Prodigies one day, talented teenagers who haven't "broken through" by age 21 are immediately called "busts." Some people are already growing impatient with Grigor Dimitrov because he's not in

Three improvements she has made that will help your game. 1. CONTROL YOUR EMOTIONS The biggest difference I’ve noticed in Nadia Petrova’s game recently is her ability to manage her anger. It used to be only a matter of time before she mentally imploded if she wasn’t playing well. Petrova

The third-seeded Swiss won 6-4, 6-3, 6-2 to move level with Agassi on 224 singles wins at tennis majors; nine behind Jimmy Connors. Federer said he wasn’t aware of that mark. “I’ve played many Slams in a row already. I’m healthy. It’s just another way of saying, ‘Roger, you’ve been

Well over a decade into his professional career, you might think there's little Sam Querrey hasn't shared with the public. But the 32-year-old recently appeared on the TENNIS.com Podcast...

The US Open's staple beverage is unlike Wimbledon's Pimm's Cups or the Kentucky Derby's Mint Juleps that have centuries-old origins, it's a relatively new concoction. The refreshing Honey Deuce is celebrating its 15th year at the major event and it will most certainly be around for decades to come. Back

Every tennis player is susceptible to short- and long-term injuries. But as we age, it’s increasingly important to find the sweet spot between keeping active, and letting the body recover from both exertion and injury. “As you get older, you don’t need to play as much to maintain your level,”

You’ve probably heard certain players praised for having good “anticipation.” They seem to have been blessed with a sixth sense for where the next ball from their opponent is going to go. But what you probably haven’t heard is how that skill was acquired. Is it a natural talent that

Okay, when I got my copy of the DVD entitled Anna's Army, I thought, “Great, just what the world needs—another exploitative video vaguely about Anna Kournikova . . .” But I was thoroughly and pleasantly surprised by the content and quality of Phil Johnston’s documentary on the making of the

My morning got off to an amusing start, as Vince Spadea stopped by my desk to rag on me, but in a good way (which is very much the Spadea way), about being compared to Kevin Federline. He was under the impression that it was I, rather than the Hillbilly

MELBOURNE, Australia -- After her third win over a Japanese opponent in three rounds, Jelena Jankovic felt like rattling off a few jokes about Japan. It's like "I'm playing the Japanese Open. It's not the Aussie Open for me," Jankovic laughed, when the issue first came up during her on-court
