Nadal's unbeaten run on clay has ended with defeat to Thiem in the Madrid Open. It means that Federer will replace Nadal as the World No.1 on Monday.

Saw on twitter that in 2007 when Djokovic entered the top 15, Federer and Nadal were the top two, now in 2018 Djokovic leaves the top 15, Federer and Nadal are the top two. Crazy stuff.

Nadal and Federer's staying power is unreal but is it also the inconsistency of the younger players who help them out?, Federer back at #1 but hasn't played for weeks, he's barely playing and managing to sustain rank.
Murrays return officially was and still is June, the week before Queens but I think he is going to be out longer, but nice to see Kyle go top 20 and keep British tennis on the up. Kvitova must be a real contender for the French this year, some good wins of late and fab to have her back at her best after her horrific ordeal. Last Weeks Winners
Madrid WTA / ATP Mens Singles Zverev BT Thiem 6/4 6/4 Mens Doubles Metkic & Peya BT Bryan & Bryan 5/3 RET Ladies Singles Kvitova BT Bertens 7/6(8/6) 4/6 6/3 Ladies Doubles Makarova & Vesnina BT Babos & Mladenovic 2/6 6/4 10/8 |

Kyle Edmund beat another top-20 player as he saw off France's Lucas Pouille in straight sets to reach the Italian Open third round yesterday. He plays Alex Zverev in the next round.

Kyle lost in 2 tight sets to Zverev and Konta lost in 3 to Ostapenko, Kontas match was a bit feisty between herself and the umpire.
I didn't see the Pliskova incident but had heard of it Just watched that video.. havent heard of a sanction yet but that deserves one This post has been edited by Mikee1981: 18th May 2018, 06:30 AM |

Interesting battle of former champs Muguruza V Kuznetsova round 1 could be tricky, Konta tricky first round on her least fave surface, Serena's first slam back I am not expecting much and a possible second round of defending champ Ostapenko and returning Azarenka
