Fedal In The Us Open semis?

Federer and Nadal did not have the easiest matches during this Us Open’s first round. The Swiss maestro had to go the distance with the young 19 year old American talent eventually taking the match. Nadal also had a shaky start by trailing a break to Dusan Lajovic.





Both players probably hoped for better first round matches. Federer outnumbered Tiafoe in unforced errors 56-49 but made up for it in the winners section 41-23. Nadal won in aces 5-1 but paid for it in double faults 5-2.


Can Nadal and Federer prove they’re back in this US Open by meeting in the semis? Or will there be upsets in this year’s edition of the US Open? Both players have unseeded players in the next round.


Nadal has drawn Japanese representative Daniel who shouldn’t be much of a problem. Meanwhile, Federer is not having such an easy time, facing Youzhny who has proven to be a challenging and unpredictable opponent. Both players will have to find ways to control their nerves, which almost got the best of them in their previous matches.


Will the iconic duo be able to progress into the round of thirty-two or will they be walking home after a rather short visit to flushing meadows?

How To meet Your Tennis Idol (Djokovic, Nadal And More!)

We’ve all dreamed about it as kids, and maybe even adults. But how would you actually come into contact with them? Here are a couple ways that you might find useful. Using Their Agency I know of 1 particular agency that represents a couple of big players like Djokovic and Nadal. They offer lots of different opportunities to contact their players. You can book a hitting session with them or have lunch with them, imagine finding out what Nadal orders at restaurants! You can get a private meet and greet with the player of your choice I’m not too sure but you could probably also do it for an organization too. Although this isn’t with a player you can get a “backstage tour” of an ATP or WTA tournament of your choice. Or something every single tennis fan has dreamed of sitting in a player’s private box and having cameras shine on them. Just think about sitting next to Jelena or Xisca and talking to them about their boyfriend/husband’s game. Or you can sit on the court during a p...

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...

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...
