Iga Swiatek qualified for the quarter-finals of the WTA 1000 tournament in Dubai by beating Dayana Yastremska.

At the press conference, a journalist asked her which player she would choose as coach, in the manner of Novak Djokovic and Andy Murray.

She replied: "Andrea Petkovic doesn't play anymore, but I've heard she has a good eye. I've always liked her, so I think we'd get on well.

Or maybe Aryna Sabalenka. She's older than me, so maybe she'll retire sooner than me. That would be fun."

Swiatek will face Mirra Andreeva in the quarter-finals.

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.
