Just weeks after celebrating his 40th birthday, Stan Wawrinka continues to impress. The Swiss player reached the Aix-en-Provence Challenger final this Saturday after defeating Borna Gojo in straight sets (6-4, 6-4).

In tomorrow’s final, he will face Borna Coric, who is set to return to the Top 100 on Monday. The Croatian will compete in his fourth final of the year on the secondary circuit, having already claimed titles in Lugano, Thionville, and Zadar.

The two last clashed in late March in Naples, where Wawrinka won 6-2, 6-3. His last Challenger title dates back to the 2020 Prague tournament.

What if tennis lost its soul? The case of robotized officiating, between tradition and a dehumanized modernity

Adrien Guyot 13/12/2025 à 09h00

Omnipresent cameras, line judges on the verge of extinction, mistakes that persist nonetheless: technology fascinates as much as it divides. Tennis, at a crossroads, is still searching for its balance between progress and emotion.

The paradox dividing tennis: exhausted players and a saturated calendar, yet ever more exhibitions

Jules Hypolite 06/12/2025 à 17h03

Exhausted but omnipresent stars, ever-longer tournaments and exhibitions that have become a business in their own right: tennis is revealing its deepest contradictions, torn between spectacle and physical survival.

Training future champions: spotlight on the decline of the French public model facing private academies

Arthur Millot 06/12/2025 à 13h10

As federations struggle to reinvent themselves, private academies are capturing talent… but also families able to invest tens of thousands of euros a year. A system that is increasingly effective, but also increasingly unequal.

Struggles with injuries and lack of money: the double punishment for tennis players far from the Top 100 stars

Clément Gehl 30/11/2025 à 12h25

A tennis player's income depends solely on his sporting results. In the event of injury, the daily life of those far from the Top 100 can become extremely complicated.

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.
