This little bit of news is a few days old but in light of the flurry of news and results surrounding the Masters Cup, it seemed understandable to me to push Andy Murray’s coaching decision on the back burner.
After over a year with Brad Gilbert, a coach provided for Murray by the Lawn Tennis Association […]
David Ferrer dismissed Richard Gasquet with an effective 6-1, 6-1 showing. After Ferrer beat Rafael Nadal earlier in the tournament, Ferrer’s win allowed Nadal to move on into the semifinals of the Masters Cup in Shanghai.
Thank you, and good day sir. The two are actually good friends - accordingly. I don’t personally know that. I […]
Bill Dwyre has an interesting column about No. 124-ranked Alessio Di Mauro. The suspension of Di Mauro has been talked about, hashed over, debated and Dwyre’s column is no different. He makes some interesting points, however.

The tap on the rear of Murray’s car came in heavy traffic in Paris. According to Murray, he had never been in a car crash before and his […]
In the movie Anchorman, the reporter who gets a lame-o assignment comes on the air saying, “Panda watch.” Well, this is not near as lame nor does it sound as cool rolling off the tongue but - Masters Cup watch.
I’m a day behind, but Spaniard David Ferrer clinched the sixth spot for the Masters Cup […]

Steffi Graf and husband Andre Agassi will be squaring off against Justine Henin and Goran Ivanisevic to raise money for Graf’s “Children for Tomorrow” charity. The match is set to take place Saturday. In my part of […]
Maria Sharapova likes to keep busy. She models, she does some commercials, not to mention she plays a bit of tennis on the side to the tune of being ranked fifth in the world. Minor details, Sherlock.
