Djokovic coming out of his slump and into top form again?

     Ever since completing his career Grand Slam Djokovic has been bent out of form. Do his recent actions and performances hint him returning back to his form? He has managed to reach the finals in Rome and has won his first two matches in Roland Garros in straight sets. After being pushed to five by Diego Schwartzman is he ready to face Ramos Vinolas who is also coming in off a five setter? The Djoker has been playing really well but he hasn't been able to keep his consistency and focus up throughout the whole match, something he used to always excel at. Playing a Spaniard on clay is no easy task , especially after a tiring five set match, but Ramos Vinolas also is coming out of one. I believe the next match will be a battle of who can endure longer physically and mentally.

Zverev, Boss Or Bust?

Z verev has had an amazing run in his dream 2017 season and was showing no signs of stopping ahead of this year’s US Open. Last night something unpredictable happened. He lost to his fellow next gen contender, the Croatian Borna Coric 6-3, 5-7, 6-7, 6-7. Zverev at the 2015 US Open Zverev started off his year with an impressive run to the round of 32 in the Australian Open until he got shut down by Nadal 6-2, 6-3, 6-4. Later he exited a tournament due to Kyrgios on 2 straight occasions. Which was then followed up by another defeat to Nadal in the round of 16 in Monte-Carlo. 8 days before his first round match he beat Raonic and Djokovic to get his first Masters title. Following that achievement he suffered a first round exit to Verdasco in 4 sets, 4-6, 6-3, 4-6, 2-6. Maybe his curse is real! A little later, he reached a round of 16 match. Then he fell to Milos Raonic 6-4, 5-7, 6-4, 5-7, 6-1. I’m sure he and the majority of his fans hoped and believed he could’ve do

Martina Hingis’s Retirement, How Much Does Her Prize Money Weigh?

Martina Hingis has announced her retirement from tennis (again.) Effective from after the year-end tournament in Singapore. She has won 68 singles titles and 26 doubles titles, she has won 102 matches against top 10 players and has won 2-year end tournaments in singles and 3-year end tournaments in doubles and has won millions of tennis fans’ hearts across the globe. But what about the rest of her story? This definitely isn’t the first time that Martina Hingis retired from tennis, in fact, she did it twice. Once in 2003 and again in 2007, but why did it happen? Well in 2003 she retired after having multiple recent injuries. She claimed that she was in pain and it was too much for her. In her press conferences, she said that she wanted to “focus” on her studies. She claimed she was only going to play tennis recreationally she also wanted to go horseback riding more and she could do that with a more open schedule. She returned in 2005 after a short-lived retirement. Her first p

What Was key In Zverev's Triumph Over Federer And How Can You Use It?

Zverev managed to stop Federer from tying for second most titles in the Open Era, looks like most grand slams, most ATP Final events, most masters 1000 event finals, most 500 tournaments, most 250 tournament finals and most match wins is enough. Zverev is definitely happy for his second masters' event and for the check that says $894,585. There is no doubt that Zverev dominated in most aspects of the game. , but which of those stats were the most key? For starters Zverev’s serve was way more effective than Federer’s serve in every way possible average serve speed, 1st serve in %, 1st serve and second serve points won and double faults. Now, one of the biggest reasons for any win lies in there, but which one. The answer is 2nd serve points won, yes the mere three percent may have won Zverev the match (Zverev 61%, Federer 58%.) My theory is that if that stat is significantly under 50% you’re already 50% closer to losing that match. Another very important statistic lying in
