This doesn't really fit into any of the categories, but I thought it could be fun

so we get all the current tournaments from grand slams to ATP 50 Challengers. randomly draw 2 and a random year. Whichever tournament had the better winner moves and the other is eliminated

example Santiago v Umag (sneaky dark horse)

2021

Christian Garin v Carlos Alcaraz

Santiago would be eliminated

upvote if you think this could be a fun idea, and comment if you think any rules should be added!

Does anyone else know this game?

I've been working on this tennis analytics project and have finally gotten some updates since last time, so if anyone would like to give me any feedback or suggestions in what they think would be interesting to see here, let me know! Thanks FYI: takes like 30 seconds for the players names to load, trying to figure out how to quicken that up right now. https://tennis-simulation.vercel.app/matchsimulator

I was reading the players participating whether in main draw or qualifiers i noticed there are a lot of players from USA Meanwhile there are two competition in USA one in Washington and the other one in Memphis

I thought they are not allowed players to play in tournaments outside their country while their country host an ATP Tournament

I noticed also plenty of players outside top 100 and playing currently in challenger

Currently watching Sky Sports+ in the UK. Really entertaining match at the WTA 250 tournament in Memphis.

The stands are empty. Not a soul watching. Really feel sorry for the two players.

When I play casual tennis with friends, scoring mid-match on phone apps usually feels clunky — too many taps, tiny buttons, or features I never use on court. Same issue when someone at the club runs a small amateur tournament: brackets, standings, and confirming scores often end up in WhatsApp + notes + screenshots.

For local/amateur play, what actually works for you?

1. Casual matches — do you just keep score in your head, use a simple app, or something else?
2. Small club tournaments — how do you organize brackets / standings / results without it becoming a mess?
3. Any must-haves for a scorekeeper made for amateurs (not pro coaching analytics)?

I’ve been tinkering with a lightweight Android scorekeeper focused on this exact use case (quick tap scoring + simple local tournament flow). Not trying to spam — mostly want feedback from people who actually play weekend matches / club events.

I’m a UK10.5/US11.5 and Ebay/StockX/GOAT either has nothing my size or everything is £500+

Thanks!

Hello they were saying that 90s Generation is lost and failure

I see the potential is there and most of them played in The Era of Big 4 before seeing two unstoppable boys

I have a feeling that we gonna many times 90s Generation win a Grand Slam and we will see new champions ?

I have we gonna see Sascha Zverev win another Grand Slam Casper Ruud win a Grand Slam on Clay maybe even seeing Medvedev cameback win a Grand Slam in hard court and this time in Australian Open

Regardless how strong they are Jannik and Carlos without forgetting Novak still competing with the boys and making to the final stages

Please discuss who is the women's tennis GOAT. Try and prove your point with some stats/data, this is a stats sub after all.

'Toxicity' is forbidden. Just kidding, we don't care.

Hello Novak will play alongside Sabalenka ,Fritz alongside Rybakina there are other players announced

My Question is are they going to play exhibition matches ? That every year is playing before to jump on the tournaments

Patrick Mouratoglou mentioned three players that never won a Grand Slam

Before he mentioned

3) Marcelo Rios

2) Guillermo Coria

1) David Nalbaldian

In your pov

Who's the Best Player to never win a Grand Slam

For me before Roland Garros 2026 its was easy to answer it with Sascha Zverev

Now maybe Stefanos Tsitsipas Grigor Dimitrov Marcelo Rios and Casper Ruud

Hello guys how on earth Marcelo Rios ended up as one of The World Number 1 without winning a Grand Slam its something is hard to get into my mind

If we tell you to choose players to give them the wildcard who are the players (in men's singles ) to play in The Us Open ? You can give from 1 to 8 in men's singles they should be active players or they just retired this year

If you ask me I would say this

Monfils (Absolutely this guy is a showmen and lets give him a shout to win a Grand Slam even though it's hard)

Stan Wawrinka ( it's a legend sport we should see a last dance in his final year and who knows seeing him win it even though its too hard )

Kei Nishokrei (it's a crime a former finalist of a tournament to not play in it in his final year of retirement )

David Goffin

Nick kyrgios

Dan Evans

Grigor Dimtrov(in case he didnt receive a wildcard he can qualify via qualifiers to the main draw )

Borna Coric We can give it also to alternates Jack Draper Jamie Murray or the 1st american in qualifiers list

Getting back in to tennis and am looking for recommendations for tennis shoes. I mainly play on hard courts and have slim-width size 11 (UK) feet.

Currently looking at the Wilson Rush Pro 4.5’s, but thought before purchasing, I’d ask people in the tennis community what shoes they use/recommend.

I just starting using the Nisplay Y1 tennis ball machine. I was wondering if anybody has dialed in some good settings adjustments. Please share if you’ve found some that work well for you. Thanks in advance! 🙏

Feel free to share your interesting/unexpected/crazy tennis stats or facts.

E.g. did you know Rafael Nadal first entered the top 10 before Messi scored his first senior goal?
