Novak Djokovic and Roger Federer headline the 2014 US Open draw, which is without the defending champion, Rafael Nadal. On the topic of missing players, when I see a men’s draw like this one, I really miss DelPo. Hopefully we should see an appearance from Juan Martin del Potro before the end of the year. …
US Open draws are released this evening at 5pm UK time! The US Open is going to be fascinating with both draws set to be wide open. I felt really flat about last year’s US Open, but I am much more excited about the 2014 edition. I’ve got no idea who I will be picking…
Qualifying for the US Open has already begun and you can keep up to date with the draws HERE. Both singles draws will be out on Thursday. The final Grand Slam previews will be posted on Moo’s Tennis Blog on Friday and Saturday! If you missed it, I wrote a feature post about Lucie Safarova…
I’ve written so many previews for matches in the last few weeks that I thought it was time to branch out and do something different on Moo’s Tennis Blog. Hopefully this will become a new regular feature, but that will probably require the creation of new 30 hour days. There’s never enough time to do…

Serena Williams won her fifth title of the year with a 6-4 6-1 victory over Ana Ivanovic in the final of Cincinnati. Somewhat surprisingly, this is Serena’s first ever Cincy title. The match started promisingly in terms of being a contest with Ivanovic racing out into an early lead; however serving at *4-5 in…
I say this all the time but… time is flying by. The US Open starts in just one week. This New Haven preview is coming out early as main draw action kicks off on Sunday, starting at 5pm UK time. In the lone WTA tournament next week, New Haven offers a last chance saloon for…
Sooooo Maria v Ana was uneventful…….. hahahaha! It seems I missed out on the craziest WTA match of the year! Right after writing this preview, i’m going to watch some highlights of that third set. Ana Ivanovic defeated Maria Sharapova, 6-2 5-7 7-5 for a monstrously huge win. Ivanovic led 6-2 4-0 before Sharapova came…
A random thank you to everyone who has been following the blog this week. The poll for yesterday’s quarter-final between Maria Sharapova and Simona Halep was the most popular poll ever on Moo’s Tennis Blog with 68% going for Halep to win. It sounded like another great contest between the pair and it has firmly…
The top half in Cincy has been ravaged with upsets and on Friday, Julien Benneteau upset Stan Wawrinka, 1-6 6-1 6-2. It was a puzzling performance from Stan. I thought (and to be honest, kind of hope) he was struggling with an injury. He seemed to check out in the third set, meanwhile Benneteau played…
