What is the solution to a US Open hangover? More Tennis. News from around the world of tennis that you might have missed last week.
The US Open heads into the second week as Labor Day is celebrated in the United States. This week’s news stories includes stories about the financial haves and have-nots in professional tennis and a new career for John McEnroe. Naturally no one can escape news of the toilet habits of Stefanos Tsitispas.
This week’s tennis news roundup includes a venue change for the Billie Jean King Cup, an impromptu tennis clinic staged by Venus Williams, and a little tournament called the US Open where fans have to provide proof of vaccination, but the players do not. Additionally, any debate over the active player with the best mullet in tennis is put to rest.
This week’s news includes a Billie Jean King interview, World Team Tennis 2021 logistics, tennis travel hacks, and more.
Billie Jean King in advance of the release of her new autobiography “All In” and other offbeat news from the world of tennis. The professional tours head to Cincinnati for the Western & Southern Open.
As both pro circuits heads up to Canada, we consider the sustainability of the tennis ball, tennis camp water fights, and a sudden appearance of beach tennis.
Tennis news this week largely centered on action from the Olympics and Novak Djokovic’s quest for the Golden Slam.
I tried something a little different this week to expand the breadth of news that appears on this site. This post highlights the tennis news stories that were just outside of the mainstream media from the past week that I found to be interesting or compelling. Please drop me a comment and let me know what you think.
2 responsesI am excited to announce that I am a USTA Tennis Champion! Over the next six months I will be participating in USTA sponsored challenges to promote tennis in North Texas. In the true spirit of this blog, I will chronicle my experiences. I am anticipating that some of the challenges may result in raucous adventures. Hilarity may ensue.
