Russia is still not allowed to compete in the Davis Cup. The last time they participated, they won the trophy in 2021.

Karen Khachanov spoke about this to the media TASS. He stated that he wants to play in this competition again.

"Honestly, the Davis Cup has changed a lot recently, the format and everything else. I don't know if the new format has become popular. We experienced it with two other formats and saw the evolution of the Davis Cup.

"We are the defending champions"

Overall, I miss playing for the national team. We finished the season on a high note. We won the Davis Cup in 2021 and haven't played since.

So we are the defending champions. I would like to play again. We had, and still have, a strong team. The three of us (Daniil Medvedev, Karen Khachanov, and Andrey Rublev) are still playing, so we can hope for better."

As we move to the end of this month and also closing out the year I am wishing all of those following me a Merry Christmas and a Happy/Healthy New Year.

Let's make that wish for all 2000 plus players hoping for 5 wins each day. Hoping ŵhen we open the results page to see all green, and no red. And especially NO CANCELED matches.

From me and my rotti JAZ, I bid you all good night, and see you in...

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.
