Failing To Deliver During Tennis Disney Era (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Welcome back! So for today’s edition, all I have for you is rants. Sorry, not sorry. That US Open, on the men’s side, is Exhibit A of all that could start going very wrong for tennis, despite people repeating that the sport is going incredibly well. For the second time in four Majors, the ATP stars have gone MIA. 15 of the Top 20 players are out on the second Monday. 15!

Before the tennis takes over (well, hopefully), we need to talk about an event (and a sport) that is trying to become the Met Gala without clearly sending the memo. My eyes fell on the ground pass ticket prices and… wow. Then I read the global outrage over it and went hmmm… We all know premium tennis events have decided to

Read excerpt
Welcome back! This month of August 2026 will be one to remember in the tennis world, as Roger Federer is about to be inducted into the Hall of Fame (Aug. 27-29). On this occasion, and after the series released last year for Maria Sharapova’s induction, the International Tennis Hall of Fame has produced a six-part documentary on Federer’s journey. A tough ask for a career spanning decades of glory, but a challe
