Re: Sania Mirza Tournaments - 2015

Surprised there isn't more excitement here about Sania on the verge of a number one ranking. And with Errani-Vinci retiring and the Williams sisters not playing much doubles, the sky could be the limit for Mirza-Hingis. Grand slams galore! There don't appear to be too many teams out there who can hu...

Delpo is coming off (another) injury to his wrist. If he's not 100%, maybe a confident Somi can capitalise... :goodluck:

Re: $125K Pune WTA Tournament, India - 6th to 12th Nov.

i believe that the women's challenger tour is sponsored by the ITF. the the WTA $125s is a new tier between the ITF challengers and the regular WTA tour. so far they've only had two tournaments, Pune following the inaugural event in Taipei last week.

Re: The olympics team pairing thread

it seems that other countries allow for players who have qualified for participation to pair up themselves. for example, Serena Williams has been "auditioning" male partners to pair up with for XD with the USTA's blessing. this seems a sensible approach. surely players should be treated li...

Aisam coming off a strong tournament win in Bangkok with Oliver Marach. Hopefully he and Rohan can continue the hot streak.

Re: Sania Mirza Tournaments 2011

Sania needs to work on fitness to succeed on clay. She's learning to construct points which is great for the dirt. But she needs to be able to hang on in the rallies, as well as in long 3 set matches. It's true her stamina is being sapped by having to play qualies but as the great Martina Navratilov...

Amazing win! So any Yanks left in the doubles? Really is the decline of the American empire (in tennis)....

Tipsaravec just recently married. Let's hope he's still in honeymoon mode and distracted.... And with the up-and-down Baghdatis possibly in the next round....

Re: At $619.5K Farmers Classic, Los Angeles, USA

Somi is the favourite but Johnson is playing red-hot without fear and has gutted out two tough three setters, including one over Matosevic who recently won a challenger. Hope I'm wrong but it might not be that straight-forward.

Somdev Dev Varman ...

Tursunov just coming back from injury and hasn't won too many matches. His game will be rusty and confidence low. A good opportunity for Somi.

Re: Rohan Bopanna thread...

Saw that Aisam pulled out of his 2nd round qualie match. Hope it's not an injury.... With injuries and scheduling issues, this team never seems to get the traction they need. Potentially a top team.
