That’s a wrap for Madrid. In arguably the biggest match of their respective careers, Ons Jabeur defeated Jessica Pegula in Saturday’s final, 7-5 0-6 6-2. The end of the tournament was rather overtaken by the frankly appalling scheduling in Madrid. A semi-final starting gone 11pm and a final with not before time. Alcaraz-Djokovic was fantastic…

The quarter-finals of Madrid are in the books. The last eight came together on Wednesday with the two remaining seeds progressing to the semis but arguably the tournament favourite exiting. This post covers Jabeur-Halep and Pegula-Sorribes Tormo. I’ll be back at the weekend to wrap up the semi-finals and final of Madrid. Willing for Ons…

The third round of Madrid is in the books. Monday was a day! All four matches were eventful and of course, there was a customary late night finish in Madrid with their bizarre scheduling. Tuesday’s schedule had its moments too. Lots to share and plenty of highlights in today’s post which covers all eight of…

The second round of Madrid is in the books. Despite a bit of a subdued set of matches on Sunday, i’m enjoying this tournament so far with the women taking centre stage over the first weekend. I know where we’re heading though with the scheduling as the men’s draw is properly starting on Monday. Just…

The first round of Madrid is officially in the books. It was a busy couple of days with 32 singles matches on the schedule. This post is not exhaustive and captures the matches that I watched including Sabalenka-Anisimova and Sakkari-Keys. I’m looking forward to a tennisy Bank Holiday Weekend! 😁. Read on for my notes…

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. It’s Charleston next week which is always one of my favourite stops on the calendar. The 2022 edition should be a good one…

The final is all set for the 2022 Miami Open at Saturday 1pm local time and will be contested between Iga Swiatek and Naomi Osaka. Miami… everything is forgiven! It’s the perfect final and a much needed one in my opinion after the past two weeks in Miami and Barty’s recent retirement. Read on for…

The quarter-finals of the 2022 Miami Open are in the books. It was a pretty dishy line-up on paper andddd… it certainly didn’t live up to expectation. Jeeps Miami has been a rough tournament this year. But again, please do still read on for my thoughts about the four quarter-finals 🤣. I don’t want to…
