The French Davis Cup team came through their first play-off match against Brazil without too much trouble.

French Tennis Federation President Gilles Moretton spoke to Tennis Actu about the team's potential.

"I think we have the team to win the Davis Cup, with young players with potential. They have the talent and can beat anyone.

Especially in the current two-set format. Ugo Humbert can beat anyone, so can Arthur Fils, and Giovanni Mpetshi Perricard has that potential too.

Our doubles team has also proved that it has quality. We need to keep improving. I'm sure we'll bring the salad bowl back to France in a few years' time.

Against Croatia, in Croatia, it's going to be hot. It's going to be a great Davis Cup. We know it's a pretty fervent crowd, but we've got a great team."

As we move to the end of this month and also closing out the year I am wishing all of those following me a Merry Christmas and a Happy/Healthy New Year.

Let's make that wish for all 2000 plus players hoping for 5 wins each day. Hoping ŵhen we open the results page to see all green, and no red. And especially NO CANCELED matches.

From me and my rotti JAZ, I bid you all good night, and see you in...

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.
