Novak Djokovic, Rafael Nadal could meet in 2nd round at Olympics

Top-seeded Novak Djokovic could meet his longtime rival Rafael Nadal in the second round of the Paris Olympic tennis tournament. Djokovic was drawn Thursday versus Australian Matthew Ebden and Nadal faces Hungaraian Marton Fucsovics, with the winners of those matches meeting in Round 2. “Expectations for the Olympics are high, and I can’t and don’t want to change that. It creates a personal motivation for me to approach it in the best possible way for the best possible result,” Djokovic said. The 38-year-old Nadal won a record 14 of his 22 major trophies at the French Open. He won gold in singles at Beijing in 2008, and […]

Carlos Alcaraz sweeps Novak Djokovic, wins 2nd Wimbledon title

After winning his first Wimbledon title in 2023 versus seven-time champion Novak Djokovic, Carlos Alcaraz fell to the ground in disbelief after what he had achieved. It had been a nearly five-hour battle, needing five sets and with the momentum constantly shifting between the two. On Sunday, there was no such dramatic celebration, nor much drama of any kind. Instead, Alcaraz broke Djokovic in a 13-minute marathon opening game, converting on his fifth break point, and largely dominated the rest of the 6-2, 6-2, 7-6 (4) match. By the end of the 2-hour, 27-minute clash on Centre Court, Alcaraz had collected his fourth […]

Krejikova downs Ostapenko in battle of past French Open champs

Barbora Krejcikova reached her first Wimbledon semifinal under blue skies on Wednesday with a 6-4, 7-6 (4) victory over Latvian 13th seed Jelena Ostapenko in the battle of past French Open champions. The Czech 31st seed kept her composure from the back of the court to force her adversary into 35 unforced errors across the match, as Ostapenko’s bid for a second Grand Slam title since her first in 2017 unraveled on Court One. Krejcikova won her first Grand Slam title on the red clay at Roland Garros in 2021, but never had put together a five-match winning streak on grass until now. […]

Andy Murray yet to make decision on Wimbledon participation

Two-time Wimbledon champion Andy Murray has not yet made a decision on his participation at this year’s tournament, Britain’s Davis Cup captain Leon Smith stated just hours after the ATP revealed that the 37-year-old will miss the grass-court competition following back surgery. The professional men’s tour’s governing body ATP has since deleted its post on social media platform X. Murray withdrew from this week’s Queen’s Club Championships due to the injury while trailing 4-1 in the first set of his second-round match with Jordan Thompson on Wednesday, having beaten Alexei Popyrin in his 1,000th tour-level singles contest.

Wimbledon has revealed plans to honor Andy Murray should this year’s tournament turn out to be a farewell to the two-time former champion.

Carlos Alcaraz outlasts Alexander Zverev to win French Open

Carlos Alcaraz came back to defeat Alexander Zverev 6-3, 2-6, 5-7, 6-1, 6-2 on Sunday and earn the French Open for his third Grand Slam title. Alcaraz is a 21-year-old from Spain who grew up watching countryman Rafael Nadal win trophy after trophy at Roland Garros — a record 14 in all — and now has eclipsed Nadal as the youngest man to collect major championships on three surfaces. Nadal was about 1½ years older when he did it. “Now,” Alcaraz told his parents, who were at Court Philippe Chatrier on Sunday, “I am lifting this trophy in front of you.” Sunday’s triumph — in […]

Mirra Andreeva stuns Aryna Sabalenka to reach French Open semifinals

With the insouciance of a 17-year-old having the time of her life here, Mirra Andreeva says she and her coach work out a game plan before a tennis match — and then she forgets all about it, preferring to just wing it. Seems to be working out fine so far: The unseeded Russian is the youngest Grand Slam semifinalist in more than a quarter century. Playing in only her sixth major tournament, Andreeva got past an ill No. 2 seed Aryna Sabalenka 6-7 (5), 6-4, 6-4 at the French Open on Wednesday. On Thursday, Andreeva goes up versus another surprising player: No. 12 Jasmine Paolini, a 28-year-old […]
