In an interview with Eurosport, Mats Wilander, whose opinion is often listened to, spoke about the retirement of the legendary Rafael Nadal.

Insisting on his legacy, he explained that what the Majorcan had done went far beyond sporting results: "Nadal is perhaps the most important tennis player we've ever had, men and women alike, because the legacy he leaves behind is not being the best of all time. He may not be the greatest of all time, but he's the most important because of his attitude, his fighting spirit.

If someone plays tennis, the first thing you hope for is that they play with the same attitude as Rafael Nadal, whether you win or lose, play smart or don't play smart. But with this attitude, I'm completely satisfied.

He's a dream athlete. I say he's one of the most important athletes of all time, and he proved it to me once again in the Davis Cup."

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.
