Alcaraz left Flushing Meadows to the applause of the crowd celebrating his sixth Grand Slam title. Eliminated in the second round last year, he dreamed of reclaiming a trophy he hadn't touched since 2022.

Although the native of El Palmar subsequently skipped the Davis Cup to take some rest, the first images of his return to training emerged this week, filmed on the courts of Murcia, Spain.

Sporting his new blonde dye and more than a week after his exit from the tournament, the player displayed an intensity that speaks volumes about his ambitions.

With his new status as world number one, Alcaraz will participate in the Laver Cup (September 19–21), before continuing with the Asian tour, eventually finishing in Paris-Bercy and then the ATP Finals.

Vacations, Rest, and Nutrition for Stars During the Off-Season: Inside a Crucial Break

Tennis never really stops… or almost. Behind the endless stream of tournaments, champions must learn to stop in order to last. From Federer to Alcaraz, an investigation into those decisive few weeks when everything is at stake: rest, release, and rebirth.

More Than a Match: Pay Inequalities Between Women and Men in Tennis

From the Williams sisters to Alizé Cornet, from sponsors to the ATP and WTA tours, the debate over pay equality in tennis has never been more intense. Between undeniable progress and persistent inequalities, the king of racket sports finds itself facing its own contradictions.

Programs for all ages and a pathway to the professional world in major complexes that are increasingly modernized. This is the motto of the Rafa Nadal Academy, which discovers the champions of tomorrow and prepares them for the very highest level.

I love tennis

why did tennis tonic void predictions on the match between Chwalinska and Huergo at the Quito tournament? The match was played to completion and on time. If TT feels the match is one sided, and of course it was, then don't put it up for prediction. This is getting irritating.

The finals are here, and we scramble for the best finish. I've been chasing "King" all year and I was able to shrink the spread a little. Skelp is also closing the gap.

Seasons best to all the regulars in our league.

Will you all be back in the new year.?

Steffi Graf completed a Golden Slam (not just a career Grand Slam) when she was 19. She is the only person to accomplish that, winning the four majors plus Olympic gold the same calendar year.
