This is one of the worst stories you can ever read about tennis. Schiavone is playing the last season of her respectable career. In Rome they do not give the wildcard to her, but to Sharapova that was banned for doping...

Very nice interview fro the man. People tend not to take him much in consideration even if he has 3 slams and 1 ATP1000 under his belt. http://tennistonic.com/tennis-news/?nid=9014&/Why-I-liked-growing-behind-Federer.-WAWRINKA

It's so weird becoming the world no.1 without beating a top5 for 6 months (that was the period that allowed Andy to get the top spot in the rankings). He also has a 4-4 record against top5 players in 2016. No.1 deserved...

The cameras were indiscrete enough to give this peak. Very interesting (even if it's not rocket science) http://tennistonic.com/tennis-news/?nid=8381&/LEAKED.-Murray%E2%80%99s-note-before-playing-Dimitrov

A crosscourt passing shot behind her back against Pliskova and he got pretty unnoticed. http://tennistonic.com/tennis-news/?nid=8288&/Flipkens-hits-the-passing-shot-of-the-year

There is something very wrong with this guy. He now attacks Djokovic from nowhere. I think he just needs to focus on his tennis. I mean he has won just a couple of minor tournaments so far. http://tennistonic.com/tennis-news/?nid=8266&/Kyrgios-sledges-Djokovic...

What a funny epilog in the second semifinal. Wozniacki for some reasons does not challenge the last ball from Kerber on match point (it was out) to lose the semis. A bit naive from Caroline. I mean, it's the last shot, just challenge and see...

An interesting point. Federer decided to play the Hopman Cup instead of Brisbane (probably more money in Perth + 3 guaranteed singles). A new budget is available for Brisbane that uses that budget to make an offer to Nadal that declines Doha. This means that probably Rafa was cashing a...

According to reports, Federer didn't participate to the Roland Garros not for the problems to his back (that is now ok), but for the fact that he couldn't be fully fit to recover from his injury. According to Godsick (his agent), Roger is now ok with his back. Is Godsick to believe or it is...

I think that the Australian Olympic Committee needs to do something against these clowns. Tomic cannot do what he did in Madrid (tanking the match point). Even worse, Kyrgios cannot insult publicly on Twitter a representative of the Australian Olympic team. It would be so nice to see both...

Roger believes he can win another FO this year. It's true that if Wawrinka has won last year, it is difficult not to agree that Federer can do it this year. I believe it depends a lot if Nadal and Djokovic play both in the other part of the draw. I can see Federer upset one of them, not both in...

Masha is the queen of PR and she has to find a way to come out from the controversy followed after her doping issue. I find it curious that there are some "stolen" pictures of her in perfect form on a beach in Mexico and these pictures takes her "perfect side". Everybody uses what he can i...

Fed didn't attack Sharapova directly, but saying that he checks the drugs he takes 4 times, well that sends the message. http://tennistonic.com/tennis-news/?nid=7411&/How-Federer-avoids-being-caught-in-doping...

Djokovic''s sportsmanship is incredible. He was playing against Tsonga and he gave away a very important point early in the breaker of the first set claiming he touched the ball when the Frenchman shot it out. Not many players would have done that...

Nadal is constantly accused of doping. I think it is unfair to blame Rafa for doping. The guy is just very fit after so many sacrifices. This comment from the former French Minister was ridiculous...

Possibly a point. What if that racket would have bounced at the lines judge like that guy in the US? http://news.tennistonic.com/view_tennisnews?nid=6281&/Kyrgios-bounces-racket-into-crowd http://www.theguardian.com/sport/2015/jul/03/kyrgios-bounces-racket-spectators-tantrum-wimbledon

WOW... there is some passion in there! New "sports romance of the moment"? (or Ana will dump also this one?) ...sorry for the gossip, it is always fun!:oops: http://news.tennistonic.com/tennis-news/?nid=6146&/Schweinsteiger-crazy-for-Ivanovic.-VIDEO

I love this video. It seems to be a bit of an overreaction http://news.tennistonic.com/tennis-news/?nid=6121&/13-Bodyguards-protect-Federer.-VIDEO

The AO presenter sparked huge debate for asking Genie Bouchard to twirl after her mach vs. Bertens. I can't see why the debate, but there is one. Here 2 different points http://news.tennistonic.com/tennis-news/?nid=5618&/Bouchard-twirl-sparks-(ridiculous)-sexist-row...

This SMART RACKET thing looks to be very interesting. http://news.tennistonic.com/tennis-news/?nid=5606&/Nadal-uses-computerized-racket-in-Melbourne http://sports.yahoo.com/news/rafael-nadals-racket-comes-power-switch-130645899--ten.html Did you try it? Is it useful?

Federer will achieve 1000 wins this month unless something very strange happens (he needs only 4 victories). He will probably overtake Lendl in his career. What about Connors' record? http://news.tennistonic.com/tennis-news/?nid=5495&/Federer-near-from-winning-1000-matches...

I undertand that Mac was great entertainre, butsaying that Federer and Nadal are not entertainers, I do not agree. I am sure he would have swapped his attitude with a couple of slams http://news.tennistonic.com/tennis-news/?nid=5471&/Federer,-Nadal-criticized-by-Roddick...

I found it very interesting Kokkinakis' interview on training with Federer. It seems that Federer tries many little unconventional things that players are not used to. Probably the best way to make baseliners uncomfortable...

Interesting. ESPN has done his selection of the hot shots of the year and they have completely forgotten Dimitrov (vs. Sock) and Kyrgios (vs. Nadal)! http://espn.go.com/blog/espntennis/post/_/id/1475/roger-federer-hits-top-shot-of-2014

The IPTL is over (today is the last day and the Micromax Indian Aces have won). http://www.iptlworld.com/ Did you like it?

I found it incredible that Gasquet dished out the actual figure, but it is interesting that a guy like Tsonga that is not at his prime earned a million for this. I think that before Nadal and than Federer, Djokovic etc have earned a fortune. No wonder why Federer was so "excited" ...

WTA had this amazing $525mil deal. They are managing to repackage the entire offering in few months and their future is very bright. I think this is dwarfing the efforts of the ATP that seems to rely only on Federer and Nadal (OK and.... also Djokovic). What's next for the ATP...

Roger is a great front-runner because he is one of the best in holding his service games, but he has problems in converting break points. I find it incredible that he has the same break points conversion rate of Raonic and worse than players like Lu, Sock and Andujar. Not surprised that...

I think that Uncle Toni is trying just to give some more extra motivation to Rafa just before he comes back to train. I still think there is not such concept as a GOAT http://news.tennistonic.com/tennis-news/?nid=5310&/Uncle-Toni:-Federer-is-the-greatest,-not-Nadal...

I went through all the IPTL rules andI have to say that they are quite complicated. It seems that they wanted to innovate a bit too much. Still a nice try. http://news.tennistonic.com/tennis-news/?nid=5303&/What-are-the-new-IPTL-rules? http://www.iptlworld.com/format.html I am sure...
