Sad Days For The Real Tennis Fans

 So, Sinner is guilty as hell. But he won't even miss the French Open. And doubles continues be disrespected, despite how ingrained it is in the sport. It seems to be going away, as we know it.  Let's hit up the Sinner issue one last time. The fact that he is so blatantly guilty and after all this drama, he gets to take the late winter and early spring off. If he was also getting fined and losing points for not showing up for three months of tournaments, it might make me feel better. But these days, the top guys can go away that long if they complain about their food. There are no consequences.  What the USTA is trying to do to professional doubles is akin to the golden goose flying over the game farm. It's a suicide mission. The USTA is totally reliant on membership dues and advertising during their fall major. They take up a lot of space on the overall landscape while staying a not for profit however. This is mainly due to their rules making ability. Making the pro even...

Australian Open 2025 PICKS

   You know what y'all, let's do this ! Welcome 2025. Let's get down to business.   It is my belief that that AO'25 will see so many upsets, that your head will spin. The first round of the men's draw features the most competitive collection of first round major matches in history.   Let's take a look at what we are looking at.   Nicolas Jarry will do the world a solid and defeat the no.1 seed, Jannick The Doper. Nic has the power. Nic has the motivation. How in the world anyone could bet against Nic Jarry here is beyond me.  Anyone who does not think Schoolkate can beat the highly respected Taro Daniel should cease gambling. He can.
