Grigor Dimitrov took a tennis lesson from Jannik Sinner in the Miami final. The Italian was unplayable on Sunday and this result does not call into question the Bulgarian's superb week in Florida. As he explained after the final.

Grigor Dimitrov: "Congratulations to Jannik and his whole team. He's been incredible since the start of the season. He's playing exceptional tennis. It's a pleasure to watch him play, but it's less fun to play against him.

Even though there was no match today, this tournament has always been complicated for me for so many years, but this year I was determined to do well and I almost did too well.

I'm very happy with my performance this week. Even if I'm not the winner, I feel like one. It was great to play in front of this crowd. I'm just very grateful."

Dimitrov G • 11

Sinner J • 2

44e, 1180 points

2e, 11500 points

You think the opponent on the other end didn't have anything to do with it🙄

@Chika .... of course Sinner had something to do with it. But Dimitrov hit a lot more UE's against Sinner than he did against Alcaraz. Dimitrov was much more consistent against Alcarsz.

Let's be honest, Dimitrov played like vintage Dimitrov. He wasn't playing anywhere near the same level he did in previous matches in this tournament, making it easy for Sinner to shine.

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

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.

Lavish tournaments, record prize money, strategic partnerships: Saudi Arabia is imposing itself at breakneck speed in the world of tennis.

Davis Cup: between reforms, criticism and national culture

Clément Gehl 07/12/2025 à 12h38

From controversial reform to fiery statements, the Davis Cup continues to divide. Between nostalgia for the old formats and unwavering love for the jersey, players share their truths about a competition that, despite everything, still makes hearts race.

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.

Dimitrov: "It's a pleasure to watch Sinner play, not so much to play him".

Sinner new world No. 2 ahead of Alcaraz!

Sinner crushes Dimitrov to win his 2nd Masters 1000 in Miami!

Guillaume Nonque 31/03/2024 à 21h54

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.
