John Isner says he is questionable for the Australian Open, as a bone bruise on his right knee is not healing quickly enough. Doctors have told him that the injury needs more than 3-4 days of rest to heal, and that it could get worse if he plays on it.

Former No. 1 Ilie Nastase says tennis has changed a great deal since he played and suggests the sport is more restrictive. The Romanian's finesse, variety, and over-the-top antics made him one of tennis' most entertaining players during the 1970s. “Thirty or forty years ago, you can’t compare that to

Continuing his recovery from surgeries, Bernard Tomic is hoping to return at the Monte Carlo Masters in April. The 22-year-old Australian underwent two hip surgeries after the Australian Open. Tomic's doctors believe he should move more freely than he did during his Australian Open first-round loss to Rafael Nadal when

Marin Cilic's coach Goran Ivanisevic says he wants to see his fellow Croat translate his success from smaller tournaments to bigger ones. "The thing he has to improve even more is his performance in Masters 1000. He’s very poor,” Ivanisevic was quoted as saying by the Desert Sun. “Lots of

WATCH: Federer Through The Ages

Stefanos Tsitsipas has beaten every member of the world’s Top 10 except for one, his quasi arch-nemesis Daniil Medvedev. Judging by his recent remarks, Tsitsipas might not have the right mindset to pull an upset off on Monday. “It’s just boring,” Tsitsipas said of the Russian’s game, “he has a

*98087846 - [Howdy. Sorry for the glitch that seems to affect some comment posters on recent threads. Maybe a fresh start will help. Lance Harke filed this report a few minutes ago. Seems like he's shell-shocked, like the rest of us, by the losses by Murray and Djokovic -

*Aga By Andrew Burton, TennisWorld Contributing Editor Morning, all. Pete has asked me to fill in for a few days while he's hunting in game-rich Montana, then you'll have another special guest poster. It's FOOP time: that time of the year when ghosts and spirits walk the earth for a

OK, here’s how it works: A guy like Federer emerges and begins to dominate, and it’s not because the other guys can’t play a lick. It’s because Federer is a unique, once-in-a-generation talent (and perhaps even better than that). Naturally, though, people grow tired of chronicling his mastery; it’s human

As poorly as Fernando Verdasco played throughout the first four sets of today's match with Janko Tipsarevic, I always felt that if he could extend the match far enough, his strokes would find their marks and get him through. Why? Verdasco was missing from advantageous positions, getting good looks at

LONDON—Rafael Nadal once again comes out in favor of switching surfaces at the ATP World Tour Finals. Nadal, who has won Grand Slam and Masters Series tournaments on every major surface, has said that the current choice, fast indoor hard courts, does not suit his game. Nadal has never won

The Australian Open is in the rear-view mirror, and yet we were treated to another a loaded weekend of pro tennis. For starters, Canada upended Spain for a historic Davis Cup team victory. (Yea, Spain was without Nadal, Verdasco, Ferrer, F. Lopez, and more, but the Canucks were in great

Serbian captain Bogdan Obradovic believes world No. 117 Dusan Lajovic has a chance to upset No. 7 Tomas Berdych of the Czech Republic in the Davis Cup final. Lakovic, 23, lost all four ATP-level matches he has played this year, but did recently win a Challenger in Asia. However, none

MONTPELLIER, France -- Gael Monfils beat top-seeded Richard Gasquet 6-4, 6-4 on Sunday in the final of the Open Sud de France to claim his fifth career title. In an all-French match against the defending champion, Monfils did not face any break points -- hitting 34 winners to 17 for

Rafael Nadal is going back to Mallorca after losing his opening match in Halle, and will not train for a few days until next week at Wimbledon. The Spaniard, who was practicing on grass at Halle less than a day after winning the French Open, said it had been a

The Spin doesn't really go on vacation, but rather lives vicariously through the beachy exploits of others. Pro tennis players are providing plenty of fodder to that end of late. Here's the latest on a couple Grand Slam–winning former No. 1s who are soaking it up of late, plus a

Sara Tomic, the teenage sister of Bernard, says she tends to "get a lot of hatred" because of her brother. "They get the wrong image of him," said Sara Tomic, also a tennis player. "Everyone thinks my brother’s a tool—he’s actually a good guy. It really frustrates me a lot."

The thought process for most monetarily minded tennis observers went much like this whilst watching the Wimbledon women's singles final this past Saturday:

AUCKLAND, New Zealand (AP) — Unseeded Ugo Humbert will play fifth-seeded Benoit Paire in an all-French final of the ASB Classic. Humbert beat fourth seed and two-time champion John Isner, 7-6 (5), 6-4, on Friday to reach his first career final. Paire later beat sixth-seeded Hubert Hurkacz of Poland, 6-4,

Roger Federer admits he was not expecting such a strong performance from Marin Cilic in their U.S. Open semifinal, in which he lost 6-3, 6-4, 6-4. "Yeah, I was surprised," said Federer. "Just how consistently he was able to pull it off, forehand and backhand." Playing his second Grand Slam
