A rare occurrence since 2005, Rafael Nadal is no longer in the running for the title at Roland Garros. Anything but varnished in the draw, the Majorcan didn't get the chance to step up his game, beaten by Zverev in the first round (6-3, 7-6, 6-3).

Nevertheless, the French Open legend went on to win a title, but in another sport. Nadal consoled himself by claiming the title at the Son Servera Golf Nations Cup in Mallorca. A meagre consolation, but "Rafa" will have to make do, at least this year.

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.

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.
