Have you gotten used to the phrase “Stan Wawrinka, French Open Champion” yet? Well, it’s too bad if you haven’t, because time marches on, and in the tennis world that means it’s time for grass season.

There is no doubt about it: This French Open was a disappointment for Novak Djokovic. The standards he had set coming in were so astronomically high that anything less than a winner’s trophy just wasn’t going to do.

Stan Wawrinka shocked the world by upsetting Novak Djokovic in the men’s final, 4-6, 6-4, 6-3, 6-4, for his second major title...

Well, just like many expected when the draw came out, Novak Djokovic will face off against a Swiss Slam champion in the French Open final. Of course, most expected Djokovic‘s opponent to be Roger Federer, but instead it will be Stanislas Wawrinka. Both men have looked superb on their way to the final. Wawrinka has shown the form that saw him win an Australian Open title last year, and he...

If this much wasn’t obvious to you before this French Open, it should be crystal clear now: Novak Djokovic is currently the best tennis player in the world. He has firmly widened the gap between himself and the rest of the Big Four (Roger Federer, Rafael Nadal and Andy Murray). That’s not an opinion—it’s a fact. Now, with his biggest rivals all sitting at home, Djokovic is a...

Another major gone by, another opportunity missed by Roger Federer. This has become a predictable pattern for the 17-time Grand Slam champion in the the latter stages of his career. A draw opens up a bit—meaning Novak Djokovic or Rafael Nadal aren’t immediately in his path—and it looks like a deep run to the final, or perhaps the title, are in store. But instead of taking advantage,...
