Just a few months after his split with Daniil Medvedev, Gilles Cervara is already returning to the ATP tour.

The French coach has decided to take young Nishesh Basavareddy, world No. 167, under his wing. A new challenge that will begin next week for Cervara, who is in Jeddah (Saudi Arabia) to accompany the American at the Next Gen ATP Finals.

"He is interested in all aspects"

Basavareddy, in training this Sunday, spoke to ATP about this key addition to his team:

"He had a very long and fruitful partnership with Daniil. He was already a good player when they started working together, but they achieved amazing things afterwards.

I felt that top-level experience could help me at this stage of my career. He is interested in all aspects, not just those related to tennis. He is rigorous and professional in areas like nutrition and physical preparation, and that will help me."

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.
