During his exhibition against Casper Ruud, Holger Rune spoke at the press conference about his maturity: "How mature can you be at 19?

You see a lot of other 19-year-olds acting very differently from tennis players of that age.

When I arrived on the ATP circuit, I had to compete very quickly with people who weren't a year or two older, but ten to fifteen. So that was a very big step.

I feel I've managed to mature. So now I'm 21, but I almost feel 31."

Rune defeated Ruud in this exhibition, the Nordic Battle, with a score of 6-4,6-2. Since he had lost the first set last Saturday, the two players played a decisive tie-break to decide the winner of this exhibition.

The Dane won the tie-break by a score of 10-6, all in an exhibition atmosphere.

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.
