April 25, 20187 yr Author Sloane breaks Coco in the first game, then proceeds to lose the next 12 straight. Can’t imagine many Slam champs have pulled that feat before.
April 25, 20187 yr Sloane hasn't won a WTA singles match outside of North America since July 2016 Edited April 25, 20187 yr by perfectchaos007
April 26, 20187 yr Looks like Malek Jaziri is for real. Knocked out Tennys Sandgren in R1, and is now on the verge of doing the same to Dimitrov.
April 26, 20187 yr Dimitrov escapes! Saves two match points to take the final set in a tiebreak. Great match.
April 27, 20187 yr Thiem collapses out of nowhere. This has been a disappointing clay season for him so far.
April 28, 20187 yr This is the most flat-out dominant play I've seen from Nadal in a long time. Even Federer's form during his 17-match winning streak pales in comparison to this. Edited April 28, 20187 yr by satyanash
April 28, 20187 yr It's 2018 and Federer + Nadal continue to dominate tennis, with del Potro and Isner winning big as well. Where is the next generation? Cilic, Dimitrov, Harrison, Zverev, Kyrgios, Thiem, Goffin, Sock... None of them have risen to the challenge.
April 29, 20187 yr Done and dusted. Nadal wins his 11th career Barcelona title, and has now won 46 consecutive sets on clay dating back to last year.
April 29, 20187 yr The sets record is one of the most impressive records on clay that he has done. It’s crazy to not slip up even once for 46 straight sets.
May 5, 20187 yr Author Madrid women’s draw, pretty stacked field. http://wtafiles.wtatennis.com/pdf/draws/2018/1038/MDS.pdf
May 5, 20187 yr Djokovic v. Nishikori in the first round of Madrid Also, is Serena skipping clay season? I know she's promoting her HBO show. Edited May 5, 20187 yr by perfectchaos007
May 7, 20187 yr Bouchard is back to playing ITF events. She's actually an underdog in her first round match http://www.itftennis.com/procircuit/tournaments/women's-tournament/info.aspx?tournamentid=1100042614
May 7, 20187 yr Author KP holds & breaks for the win, 93 to 92 total pts. Really dug her pink & blue Fila kit also.
May 7, 20187 yr Djokovic took out Nishikori in the first round of Madrid, straight sets. Looking forward to seeing Nadal vs. Djokovic
May 8, 20187 yr - No. 3 seed Dimitrov loses early again. For all his talent, he continues to struggle with inconsistency. He should have beaten Raonic on this surface. - del Potro is back, and looks to be in good form. - WTF has happened to Jack Sock? He's flat-out awful.
May 9, 20187 yr Murray may not be fit in time for Wimbledon, unfortunately. Shouldn' rush his comeback
May 9, 20187 yr Ka.Pliskova has been playing very well on clay this year. She has to be one of the favorites to win the French.
May 11, 20187 yr The streak is over! Thiem takes down Nadal in straight-sets (7-5, 6-3). Federer will return to World No. 1 after Madrid. Nadal must now win Rome to get the #1 ranking back. Oh, and whoever bet on Thiem probably made a killing. Edited May 11, 20187 yr by satyanash
May 11, 20187 yr Thiem's win here was very similar to his win over Nadal at Rome last year. He smashed the crap out of the ball at every opportunity, used his legs to chase down everything, and played completely error-free when on the defensive. The go-for-broke strategy that very rarely succeeds, but is amazing to watch when it does. Thiem, along with Zverev, has a very bright future on clay.
May 12, 20187 yr Kvitova won Madrid on the womens side. I was trying to find it on TV, but neither Tennis Channel, ESPN/ESPN+, or BeinHD were showing it so I don't know who was broadcasting it.
May 12, 20187 yr Should be a great Madrid final tomorrow. Both Zverev and Thiem are in good form on clay.
May 13, 20187 yr Author Rome women’s draw, pretty good field. http://www.internazionalibnlditalia.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/05/MDS-WTA-20180513.pdf Edited May 13, 20187 yr by spystud13

That robbery and hand injury she suffered robbed her of an entire year.
May 13, 20187 yr Disastrous start for Thiem O_O Zverev is teeing off on his serves and Thiem is making a lot of errors.
May 13, 20187 yr First set to Zverev. Everything's clicking for him right now, Thiem may need a change of strategy.
May 14, 20187 yr Coco and Keys have similar games. If they are on, they'll win pretty quick, and if they are off they will lose quickly.
May 14, 20187 yr Author Sloane is wearing a white tank top, black shorts, black shoes. Nike’s laziest effort ever.
