10 Burning Questions Ahead of North American Hard-Court Season

The North American hard-court season, or as I refer to it, the summer swing, has just gotten underway. It carries much importance in the media, particularly because of the U.S. Open. Much history has been made during the summer swing in the past three or four years, and with the top of the game at a most unusual state for the first time ever, we will not be able to make predictions as easily this time... 

Predicting the Top 10 Players in the WTA Rankings at the End of 2013

The women’s field has been both strong and shaky this year. With half of the 2013 season already in the books, we have a good idea of how the future tournaments will play out. Again, some of the athletes on the WTA tour continue to impress out of nowhere while also vanishing just as quickly as they appeared. I recognize that some of the players may fall apart during the summer swing and that... 

The Defining Moment in Each Current Tennis Superstar’s Career

The current tennis superstars have had more than exceptional careers and are somewhat freakish in their superhuman abilities. These players win so much that their losses look surprising, even when coming in semis and finals. Though they have won so many events and big matches through time, some moments clearly stand out for them in their respective careers. Not every superstar has had a definitive... 

Ranking the 10 Brightest Young Stars in Tennis

While there are many superstars at the forefront of the men’s game, there are also just as many potential superstars in the making. The men who break out on the scene in big tournaments are generally a little bit older (aged 20 to 24) than the female players, who can be seen succeeding as teenagers. Still, their games pack a punch and their new styles can take the tennis world by storm. As many... 

Ranking the Countries That Produce the Best Tennis Talent

Tennis has always been and will remain an international sport for all countries and people to enjoy and play. While much talk in the press could be about top players like Andy Murray or Caroline Wozniacki, their lone success does not particularly relate to the country’s talent as a whole, and they are the only individuals that are keeping their country’s names in the spotlight. Some countries... 

The Biggest Blunder in Every Tennis Star’s Career

While there are many notable tennis stars on the ATP tour, they all cannot shine at the same time. Even the world’s best players are guilty of not closing out matches or narrowly losing by conceding the important points. A very common occurrence in all sports is athletes showing signs of nerves, which leads to choking or a lack of confidence. Though not all of the top players in tennis have had... 

Predicting the Top 10 Players in the ATP Rankings at the End of 2013

The top 10 players in the world are so strong that their ranking positions often never change that much. The biggest and most unusual shifts in the Top Five this year were David Ferrer going as high as three and Roger Federer dipping as low as five. Though the ninth and 10th spots in the men’s ATP rankings are likely to change from time to time, most of the players remain close to the exclusive... 

Stock Up, Stock Down for Tennis’ Top Stars

The past few years of tennis have been quite remarkable, but this season could be shaping up to be more memorable and special than the others. The power in the men’s field is constantly changing, and many new faces are eager to break out. Many thrilling matches have taken place and yet, the year is only halfway complete. The summer swing is about to get underway, and looking at athletes’... 

The Biggest Question Facing All of Tennis’ Top Stars

The men’s tennis season has been quite patchy and uncertain. The top guys went on substantial runs and then passed their fire to the next eager man. A different player was won each of the majors thus far, so perhaps Roger Federer or a dark horse has a chance to take home the U.S. Open title in Flushing Meadows. Many questions have been asked about the top stars after the wacky Wimbledon tournament... 

Grades for All of Tennis’ Top Stars in 2013

The 2013 tennis season has had a much different turnout than many people expected. Many players have been challenging the Top 10 guys, and it seems that an exclusive ranking is no longer good enough to shake opponents off. With a new wave of talent emerging all so suddenly, it is questionable whether those players will join in the dominance as well. But we should know in a year or so. I have assigned...
