Carlos Alcaraz defeated Hamad Medjedovic in Cincinnati. The Spaniard continues his run in this American Masters 1000.

Interviewed on court after his match, he was asked how he manages to win on days when he doesn't feel at his best.

He responds: "I always say that the season is very long, with many matches and many tournaments. In more than half of the matches we play, we don't feel very good.

You have to stay positive and just play the best tennis possible that day. I am really happy to be able to play my best tennis in very difficult matches, even if I don't feel at my best.

I am just happy and proud of that, because it is something I work on.

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.
