This is one tough kid! Well done Sumit nagal.

Federer was looking much below his normal level today. He had played a lot of tennis since his back bothered him (against Benneteau) in the first week of WImbledon and the gruelling semifinal against Del Potro certainly did not help. Was something bothering him today? I just did not see that extra g...

Isn't Aptos a kind of home tournament for Kash? May explain why he decided to taste waters right here after a long hiatus.

Good win for Rajeev considering how well Brian Baker has been playing lately and how he has resurrected his career.

Karan, kudos to you for persevering through your nerve condition and through the injuries. Your's is an inspiring story. You've given it all for your passion and you should be very proud of yourself for all the things you've achieved in your career. I can very well empathize with you. I have a very ...

Federer's record of 33 consecutive QFs at the Slams is all the more remarkable when you consider the injury-based withdrawals of his contemporaries. Not defending your Olympic title is pretty shameful for a player still close to his prime. I think his withdrawal from Wimbledon 2009 too was unseemly...

Win-loss records don't matter at this level, but injuries do. Injuries would matter the most for him at this time. He has surpassed almost every milestone in his tennis career by now. I don't think Nadal would be dumb enough to play through the injury and jeoparadise his longeivity. He's probably t...

They may be sentimental but they reached 4 finals, winning 2 of them so they did not stick together for nothing. Paes does well with serve-and-volley women players and thats why his other titles came with Raymond and Black. He does not have any other noteworthy mixed doubles partnerships. Well said.

This is a brief report on Sumit's final in another forum - Panama Bowl 2012 Finals Yesterday we had the Panama Bowl 2012 finals. It was a great match between Sumit Nagal and Seong Chan Hong (winner of last year Eddie Herr & Orange Bowl 14's). It was a long match in a really hot and muggy weathe...

It was exactly the opposite. Borg used to play with extremely high tension in his racquet, probably the highest in his contemporaries (in the range of 75-85lb).

Congratulations to the Indian Express! This was a superb tournament win for them.

Rajeev Ram is in the QF, beating Lleyton Hewitt in 3 sets 7-5, 2-6, 6-2.

his body must be drained... last thing anybody wants is an injury going into the French Open.
