Cameron Norrie spoke at a press conference after his defeat against Novak Djokovic, who is steadily advancing through the men's Roland-Garros draw.

The Serb boasts excellent serving statistics, a quality Norrie emphasized: "No one talks about his first serve. I try to extend the points and play my game, but he disrupts the rhythm by serving incredibly well.

His serving is impressive. I think it's the part of his game that has improved the most. I'm surprised by his serving accuracy.

It's incredible how he controls the pace of the match, and he doesn’t miss anything. He still hasn’t missed anything."

Djokovic will hope to rely on his serve once again when he faces Alexander Zverev in the quarterfinals.

PLEASE! Federer did the same thing when he got older. He focused on backing off his first serve a little and getting more of them in. It's tennis 101. When you're opponents return of serve is good enough to put you on defense right away, you change to getting more first serves in. Same concept with Federer trying SABR (Sneak Attack By Roger) where he stepped inside the base line and took serves early to put the opponent on defense.
Problem is, it's a more high risk.

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...

I love tennis

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.
