Victoria Azarenka has been having a tough time during her elongated return to the WTA tour. On Tuesday, she suffered another setback, losing her first round at the Australian Open to Laura Siegemund, 6-7 (5), 6-4, 6-2. The Belarusian's emotions tumbled out during post-match press.

American Ernesto Escobedo has been rising up the ranks quietly, first finding himself in the spotlight at last year's US Open. A lot of his success is thanks to the support of his close-knit family, and the sense of stability he gets from his home base in southern California. "They've

MIAMI GARDENS, Fla. — Every Nick Kyrgios match is unpredictable, and sometimes frustrating, but you've got to admit it's always entertaining in some way or another. On Sunday, he put on quite the show while beating Dusan Lajovic, 6-3, 6-1. The Australian raced through the match in just 57 minutes

I'm heading up to the farm in game-rich Andes this afternoon, for the opening of New York deer season, an event that has special and not entirely happy significance for me this year - it concerns the health of a friend, a guy younger than me, and I think that's

Novak Djokovic’s record at the China Open is a perfect 13-0, and his performance on Saturday was very nearly as impeccable, defeating Florian Mayer, 6-1, 6-4 to return to the final for the third time and set up a meeting with Jo-Wilfried Tsonga. In a lovely gesture to the fans,

This time last year, Roger Federer fans (and likely the player himself) blinked in disbelief as the six-time Wimbledon champion fell behind two sets to love to unheralded Alejandro Falla in his first-round match. Falla, famously, failed to serve out the match in the fourth set before falling in five.
