Coco Gauff finished the 2023 campaign as the highest-ranked US player, and she also collected the most wins on the home soil in the United States. Players from the United States have left a really deep mark on tennis, and while their players won worldwide, playing at home has always been a strong suit for…
Emma Raducanu is rumored to make her Grand Slam return at next month’s Australian Open, but not in the main draw. The British tennis star has been out of action for over five months due to multiple injuries, having last played a competitive match on tour in Stuttgart in mid-April.

Novak Djokovic has been one of the most dominant players in the history of the ATP Tour, and in 2024, he can prove his point once again. It seems that all that the Serbian has been doing over the past two seasons is breaking records. He became the first man to win 40 ATP Masters…

Rafael Nadal will make a comeback at the Brisbane International in about a month, and he’s aware that things could go very badly.

By Alberto Amalfi | @Tennis_Now | Monday, December 4, 2023 Bernard Tomic is rebuilding his ranking. That won’t necessarily earn the 31-year-old Aussie a wild card into Australian Open qualifying. More: Djokovic‘s Dream Playing primarily Challenger events, Tomic has rised to No. 287 in the rankings after finishing the 2022 season ranked No. 462. Australian Open…
The Australian Open will not have to use one of its allotted wild cards on Rafael Nadal, as the 37-year-old Spaniard has officially entered the tournament with a protected ranking.
