Cobolli

Flavio Cobolli ended the 2025 season in a fine manner by winning the Davis Cup with Italy. In an interview with Corriere della Sera, the Italian revealed his ambitions for the year 2026.

He stated: "We will take care of it during the preseason, after the holidays. I have confidence in my team, especially in my father, and I rely on him. My goal is clear: to break into the Top 10.

I don't know when or how, but to compete with Jannik and the others, I absolutely must work on my weaknesses. I need to improve my level of play. I don't think I have to win every time, but to progress, I have to play, win, and lose.

So far, my career has progressed gradually, step by step, exactly as I wished. Whether in the Davis Cup, the United Cup, or the Laver Cup, I started as a substitute before becoming a key player.

I climbed the ranks one by one, without faltering, with an almost naive authenticity. That's how you build a career, and for me, Bologna will forever remain a decisive turning point."

What if tennis lost its soul? The case of robotized officiating, between tradition and a dehumanized modernity

Adrien Guyot 13/12/2025 à 09h00

Omnipresent cameras, line judges on the verge of extinction, mistakes that persist nonetheless: technology fascinates as much as it divides. Tennis, at a crossroads, is still searching for its balance between progress and emotion.

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.?
