Michael Parks knows all about the cutthroat life of competitive sports. The former pro basketball player understands

It’s time for one of those tennis-writer’s specials, a quarterly column extolling the patriotic, time-tested, and all-around manly virtues of Davis Cup. Can I skip it this time?

The global suspension of pro tennis has left players on the sidelines. This includes 21-year-old Marie Bouzkova, who hadn't won a WTA match all season but reached the final in Monterrey the week before Indian Wells. The Czech defeated Jo Konta in the semis and she lost against the No.

NEW YORK—It seems a few people listened to my advice. Grandstand was almost completely full this morning for a second-rounder involving, of all people, Diego Junqueira and the tournament's No. 18 seed. Of course, that seeded pro hasn't lost here since 2008, having won the title in 2009 and missing
