By winning his first-round match in Monte-Carlo against Arnaldi (6-3, 4-6, 6-4), Gasquet once again pushed the boundaries of age. Like his compatriot Gaël Monfils, the Frenchman has advanced to the second round at 38 years old.

This victory is symbolic, as it comes 23 years after his first win in the Principality. He will face Altmaier for a spot in the round of 16.

With this win, the Béziers native joins the list of the oldest players to win a match in a Masters 1000 tournament.

Karlovic holds the top spot (40 years and 11 days), followed by Connors (39 years and 194 days) and Wawrinka (39 years and 189 days).

Gasquet ranks 6th, ahead of Monfils (38 years and 218 days) and behind Haas (39 years and 43 days).

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.
