First … Last »

(Preview)
For my own amusement, I thought I would try and keep track of the top tennis nations over the course of the year and see where GB stacked up. Being honest, my main interest is the mens game, so I planned to track the week by week average rankings of the top 10 players in each of the key countries and see if GB ma...

So, Brighton is hosting a UTR tennis tournament with £1800 for the winner, decent money all the way down, prizes for the divisional winners, host families, etc. etc. It seems to be a men/women mixed event (based purely on UTR ranking), which is interesting. Is this a completely new thing? Or have I jus...

Next year's early ITFs are already on the ITF calendar. Fewer tournaments in January/February than 2024 but Manchester is introduced to the women's calendar which is a nice change from the usual venues. I would expect there to be at least 1 ATP Challenger. As a reminder there is an increase in prize mo...
