Melbourne Tennis Extravaganza, Day 1: The Dashas score emphatic wins, Ostapenko d. Errani

And so we go again… strap yourself in for a feast of tennis over the next three weeks! Two WTA 500 tournaments, the Yarra Valley Classic and the Gippsland Trophy, both began on Sunday with 54-player draws. They’ll be joined on Wednesday by the Grampians Trophy with a 28-player draw for the players who were…

WTA Abu Dhabi 2021: Aryna Sabalenka powers to 3rd straight title with 15th consecutive win

The first week of the 2021 season is in the books as the Abu Dhabi WTA Women’s Tennis Open concluded with a one-sided final and another dominant performance from Aryna Sabalenka.

WTA Abu Dhabi 2021, QF Highlights: Sabalenka in great form, Kudermetova & Kostyuk to meet in SFs

WTA Abu Dhabi 2021, R2 Highlights: Sakkari beats Gauff again, Kostyuk survives Hsieh happy hour

I’m really enjoying the resumption of tennis in Abu Dhabi this week and the odd midweek start to the tournament means there’s a lot more tennis going on at the weekend than usual. It comes at a favourable time with no Premier League football this weekend. Football was my favourite sport before I got into…

WTA Abu Dhabi 2021, R1 Highlights: Kasatkina wins first main draw match of new season

Happy New Year and welcome to the 2021 WTA season! I’m very thankful for the resumption of tennis as we moved into our third Lockdown this week in the UK. It’s going to be a long winter. I’m just trying to keep busy and generally avoid reading too much of the news. Wherever you are…
