In a candid interview, the former Wimbledon semifinalist points to the lack of flavor in today's tennis compared to the golden years of Federer, Nadal, and Djokovic.

Former world No. 13 and the true sensation of the 2012 Paris-Bercy Masters 1000, Jerzy Janowicz has been retired since 2022. Plagued by injuries, the Polish player was never able to fulfill his enormous potential.

Now transitioned to padel, Janowicz gave a brief interview to Tennis World Italia. He considers the current tour "boring" compared to the Big 3 era:

"I miss the rivalry between Novak Djokovic, Rafael Nadal, and Roger Federer. Andy Murray, Stan Wawrinka, and David Ferrer too. Today, tennis seems more boring to me; it feels like everyone plays the same way.

I might be a bit nostalgic, but they were the most interesting to follow, more than Carlos Alcaraz and Jannik Sinner, even though they are very strong.

Men's tennis is now as boring as women's tennis, congratulations, you did the near impossible!

They should only get the monopoly money from tickets sold at events to use as prize money.

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 federations struggle to reinvent themselves, private academies are capturing talent… but also families able to invest tens of thousands of euros a year. A system that is increasingly effective, but also increasingly unequal.

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.
