As reported by the X account Jeu, Set et Maths, the 2025 ATP season ended with a 4.8% rate of retirements and withdrawals. This is a true record, whereas the highest rate previously recorded was 4.3% in 2014, 2009, and 2008.

This statistic highlights the physical demands of tennis and corroborates the regular complaints from players, who believe that playing conditions are too difficult and the schedule is too long.

ATP: 2025 Sets a Record for Retirements and Withdrawals

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.

What a finish this is.. I believe King has used his boost for today. Skelp is closing strong. Two wins and he claims 1st if I lose my last prediction.
