Jannik Sinner faced Holger Rune in the last 16 of the Australian Open on Monday. The match was interrupted for around 15 minutes.

The cause was a broken net following the Italian's serve. This destroyed the hook holding the net, and a new one had to be installed.

The match had already been interrupted for a few minutes due to a medical time-out for Sinner, who had suffered a heat stroke.

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.

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.
