Fabio Fognini is preparing to play his final Wimbledon of his career. The Italian wasn’t favored in the draw, as he’s set to face Carlos Alcaraz this Monday, the two-time defending champion.

In a press conference, he expressed his happiness at the chance to compete against the Spaniard and shared an anecdote involving his son: "My son called me to say he wanted to come watch the match.

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.

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.
