In three weeks, Roland-Garros will begin with an event that has been planned for several months: Richard Gasquet's retirement after a 23-year career on the professional circuit.

In the French Open podcast, tournament director Amélie Mauresmo spoke about this moment, which will undoubtedly be filled with emotion:

"He’s another player from Nadal’s generation who will bow out. It will be emotional for Richard. I’m sure he’ll continue to play tennis, whether with France or with the younger generation. He has a passion for this sport that is truly incredible.

His longevity in tennis is extraordinary. He has been a presence in French tennis for over twenty years. He’s a major figure and one of the faces of the sport in France. We want to have a beautiful ceremony for him."

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.
