Bad news for Tallon Griekspoor. The Dutchman, who had been delivering strong performances in recent weeks with a semifinal at the ATP 500 tournament in Dubai (after defeating Humbert and Medvedev) followed by a quarterfinal at the Indian Wells Masters 1000 (where he eliminated Zverev in the second round), will not be present in Miami.

The world No. 34 announced his withdrawal after the draw due to a right ankle injury. Originally set to face Tomas Martin Etcheverry in the first round, the 28-year-old has been replaced in the draw by Gabriel Diallo.

The Canadian, who had lost in the final round of qualifying to American player Brandon Holt, has been granted a spot in the main draw as a lucky loser and will now face the Argentine this Thursday in the first round.

Eliminated in the third round last year by Jannik Sinner in the same Miami tournament, Griekspoor temporarily drops two places in the rankings pending the continuation of the tournament.

The Haarlem native joins the list of withdrawals for the 2025 edition in Florida. The tournament had already confirmed the injury-related absences of Thanasi Kokkinakis, Zhang Zhizhen, Arthur Cazaux, Nicolas Jarry, and Shang Juncheng (in addition to Jannik Sinner, who remains suspended for three months).

The impact of the war on tennis in Ukraine: financial aid, foundations, governing bodies and all‑round headaches

Adrien Guyot 29/11/2025 à 09h08

Since February 2022 and the invasion of Ukraine by Russia, Ukrainian sport has been heavily affected by human, structural and economic losses. Tennis has, of course, not been spared. While Ukrainian athletes have had to rethink their entire organization, an entire country, behind the scenes, has had to adapt and change its training conditions. This extends all the way to the highest level, where professional players have spoken out, trying as best they can to help their nation.

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

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.
