Vera Zvonareva has not yet turned the page. At 41, the former world No. 2 will make her Grand Slam return at the Australian Open, in doubles, after an encouraging end to the year on the ITF circuit.
When tennis reinvents itself: the "One Point Slam" unites global stars and amateur players in a lightning-fast format, designed to "bring people together around tennis" according to Craig Tiley.

The Australian dream becomes reality for Kyrian Jacquet and Sarah Rakotomanga. Thanks to the agreement between the French and Australian federations, the two French players are heading directly to the main draw of the Australian Open, while the young Ksenia Efremova, 16 years old, will try her luck in the qualifiers.
