What will Brexit mean for GB Tennis?
(

(Preview)
Today strikes me as a fairly depressing day in British Politics and our life in general. I started thinking about the impact it will have on foreign travel, flight and accomodation prices, inflation, interest rates, house prices, food costs etc. Then I thought about Sport. Probably one of our most v...

What should the LTA change to be more effective?
(

)
(Preview)
There seems to be an overwhelming majority of pros, ex pros, pundits and members on this forum that think the LTA needs to change. This is what I think the LTA's main problems are. Problem 1 - Too much focus on getting people playing tennis Though I respect that it is good for the future of British Tennis...

Next season, the Davis and Fed Cups will end in a World Cup of tennis in November in Geneva in front of 18,000 screaming fans (yey!). It looks like the DC Semis and Final and Fed Cup Final and maybe the semis will take pla...

Rules for missing mandatory tournaments for age and good behaviour.
(Preview)
I have found this on Master exempts (from 2015), and understand that a player cannot miss the same Masters two years on the trot unless they are exempt from all Masters. But I can't seem to find the rules on missing Premier Mandatories or GSs. Please can someone help me on this. (for men and women). A pla...

Emojji in draw lists
(Preview)
I was wondering if we could have a debate on something. And I'll preface by saying the work by people posting draw lists is very valuable, appreciated, and key for the forum. But i have one minor gripe. The use of emojji when listing tournament draws. Because I wish to be able to develop my own impression...

Hi guys, I know I rarely post these days, but still monitor the forum regularly. This month marks 12 years, since I started this website. Back then in June 2005, a young 18 year old called Andy Murray ranked 300ish in the world had just made the third round of Queens before cramping against Thomas Johans...

ATP Nottingham Challenger Entry List
(Preview)
Overall a weaker entry for Nottingham than Surbiton, only 4 top 100 and lower cut off by 40 places. But one big name at the top of the list in Dan Evo! Clearly looking at a week on grass after RG, and before presumably playing Queens, Eastbourne and then Wimbledon. Good that Dan is going for the grass sea...

ATP Eastbourne Entry List
(Preview)
Each of Kyle, Dan and Aljaz make the MD list for Eastbourne. It is actually a v good list - no real stars at the top end but v solid entry through the 20-60 rankings and an initial cut off of 59 is good. Several good grass court players as well. Pity Eastbourne is around 350 miles from where I live Entry d...

2017 Davis Cup QuarterFinals - BEL v ITA; AUS v USA; SRB v ESP

I thought it might be worth having a separate topic to cover anyone wanting to comment on the other ties as opposed to GB v FRA which has its own thread of course! Apologies if I got this wrong! AUS v USA draw is out already - no changes to line ups and Jordan Thompson leads off v Jack Sock and then Nick K is up ag...

Which is the most ethical kit manufacturer

I find myself in a difficult position in terms of buying tennis kit for my kids. Having a reasonable understanding of when a drug should and shouldn't be prescribed for medical reasons, I struggle to square a number of recent arguments about the use of non FDA (an organisation whose judgement I trust)...
