Too Tight to Mention
As the slide above shows, no serious institution or regulator treats betting as “healthy” or harmless. It’s restricted everywhere, and minors can’t even take part. Yet tennis still monetises it through sponsorships, as if we’d rewound the clock to the era when motorsport could be plastered with cigarette brands (until
The System That Breaks Its Players
In New York, at the US Open 2025, Jack Draper didn’t even
The banned wristband and the real match: who controls tennis data
The organisers do have one defensible argument: “coaching” is not an invented
Grow the game
Let’s borrow from Popper. The USTA’s theory is not scientific because it is not falsifiable. As formulated, it can never be proved wrong.
Vondroušová: how an argument turned into a four-year anti-doping ban
The written reasons show that she knowingly refused the test because she believed she was being subjected to an abuse of authority. They also reveal that the officer did not show her credentials and used an outdated form.
Modern Tennis Is Harder to Finish
Tennis Hasn’t Become Too Long. It’s Become Too Dense. Too many players are missing from Wimbledon 2026: Alcaraz with a wrist injury, Rune with an Achilles tendon injury, Musetti with a thigh injury, Draper with an arm injury, Korda with a back injury, and many others only just back from
Vondroušová’s four-year suspension: a sanction that can be explained, but not yet fully assessed
The ITIA has on its side a very harsh and fairly clear rule: the athlete can be tested outside the window, and refusal constitutes a serious violation. Vondroušová has on her side a human and potentially procedural argument: an evening test at home, personal safety, contested identification and certified psychological
Dan Evans Denied a Wimbledon Send-Off
The All England Club hands a singles wildcard to a 44-year-old Serena Williams — four years away and 34 pounds lighter on a GLP-1 — yet sends Britain's own retiring former No. 1 to Roehampton to qualify.
Serena Williams and the comeback anti-doping cannot yet name
The point is what Williams’s return brings with it. Because Williams is not simply coming back after a break. She is coming back after becoming the public face of Ro, a telemedicine company that sells GLP-1 weight-loss treatments.
Sinner: The Body We Don’t See
The point is not to make a diagnosis from the outside. That would be wrong and pointless. The point is to understand why these episodes are so striking in Sinner’s case. Not because he is a weak athlete. Quite the opposite: because Sinner became world number one by building his
The ATP pension plan doesn’t fix the system, it explains it
So the contradiction remains intact: the tour centralises revenue linked to an activity the World Health Organization says can harm health, denies players direct access to that same stream during their careers, and still extends the safety net even to those who have already made fortunes.
Triste, solitario y el número uno
This article aims to examine, with rigour and analytical depth, the research carried out by Argentine journalist Eduardo Puppo, given the many misunderstandings, especially among fans. That investigation, which lasted more than twelve years and is known as “Project V”, highlighted discrepancies in the available data, documentary gaps and operational
Breaking point When Musetti levelled up, the schedule caught up
This is not psychology. It is physics. Your body will adapt. It needs time. In the meantime, Lorenzo, keep your head up. It is not a weakness. These are growing pains.
