The clay court season is in full swing as we move onto the Madrid-Rome double header. Last week, Iga Swiatek won her fourth consecutive title in Stuttgart. An incredible feat! Swiatek would have been the heavy favourite for Madrid but she pulled out of the tournament this morning due to a shoulder injury. Wise move,…

The 2022 Credit One Charleston Open is in the books and what a super week it was! In Sunday’s final, Belinda Bencic won her first title on clay, beating Ons Jabeur, 6-1 5-7 6-4. Charleston had a real buzz this year with the debut of the upgraded stadium and the first edition with fans since…

That’s a wrap for the 2022 Miami Open. In Saturday’s final, Iga Swiatek defeated Naomi Osaka, 6-4 6-0 to complete the Sunshine Double! Read on for my final notes from the tournament.

The fourth round of the 2022 Miami Open is in the books. Manic Monday Miami style was a much better day of tennis and I feel this is a more positive post than the recent ones 😂. Despite all the upsets, I think we’re left with a pretty exciting quarter-final line-up. Today’s post focuses on…

The third round of the 2022 Miami Open is in the books and the last 16 will all come together Manic Monday style. Let’s not beat around the bush – Miami hasn’t been great so far. The third round had two withdrawals, two retirements and not much of note in the matches that played out.…

The second round of the 2022 Miami Open is in the books. The seeds came out to play on Thursday and Friday. The story of the tournament so far is that not many of them are sticking around in Miami! 11 of 14 lost on Thursday and a further 6 of 14 departed on Friday.…

The first round of the 2022 Miami Open is in the books. I’m still distracted by the Barty news to be honest. It doesn’t help that the start to both Miami and Indian Wells is always subdued with the seeds getting byes into the second round. The seeds come out to play on Thursday and…
