New match-up klaxon… Madison Keys and Caroline Wozniacki will go head-to-head for the first time on the WTA tour in a blockbuster fourth rounder set for Sunday at Flushing Meadows. For the second time this week, Keys was on the brink of going out of the US Open. In one of, if not her greatest ever…
That’s a wrap on my three days at the US Open… I keep using all these superlatives but it really has been a superb week in New York! I have so many memories and my final day was definitely my favourite. I’ll be flying back to the UK on Thursday evening (sob) so will be sending…
Tuesday was another intense day at the tennis as I had tickets for both the day and night session on Ashe. It was something on my bucket list so really pleased to have an experienced a night session! It was a 12 hour + day (amazing but hectic!) so a very quick post today with some of my favourite photos. I…

The Western & Southern Open final in Cincinnati will take place on Sunday at 2pm local time between the number two seed, Angelique Kerber and the number 15 seed, Karolina Pliskova. A win for Kerber will see her go to world number one… Expectations for Cincy were perhaps muted for Kerber following a gruelling week…

Kerber was first into the…
