Valentin Vacherot and Arthur Rinderknech are set to meet again on the court. The two cousins faced off in the prestigious final of the Shanghai Masters 1000 and will meet again in the second round of the Rolex Paris Masters.

Jo-Wilfried Tsonga, in comments reported by Tennis Actu, spoke about this rivalry: "It's refreshing, it's always pleasing. Finally, some human stories too, that's why we love sport and tennis in particular, because behind these ball machines, there are above all human beings.

I think there is nothing more beautiful than sport combined with great stories."

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.?
