What a comeback for Mikael Ymer! He wins the title in Luxembourg.

He's been working hard during his suspension but I don't think anyone expected him to come back and win right away. Dream comeback for Mikael.

The Return of Mikael Ymer is moving along at a fast clip!

Playing his first pro event since his 18 month ban, he's currently playing junior wunderkind Nicolai Kjaer... like right now!

🎾
So as far as Futures finals go, they don't get much better than this - a former world #50 starting his comeback and a teenager on the rise.

Mikael Ymer vs Nicolai Budkov Kjaer in about three hours (second on from 2PM CET). You can watch it here: www.itftennis.com/en/match/?ma...

It took me until wondering why he understands this and I don’t, to realise that this is supposed to be Squid Game

Popov 🤩 Thrilled for him.

Moving his feet more in 35 seconds than in an entire tennis match 😎
Why am I just learning that Fabio Fognini was on Ballando con le Stelle, the Italian version of Dancing with the stars?! 💃🕺

Fabio danced to Great Balls of Fire with partner Giada Lini. 👌

5 reasons why The Shining is a Christmas movie

1. Snow
2. Red rum
3. Hyperactive kids

5. Huge family row ending with someone putting an axe through the door.

Hearing “mince pie” always takes me back to being new to the UK and being roped into writing a student newsletter despite my English being… challenged. So I informed my fellow hall of residence inhabitants that there would be mints pies and malt wine available. Good times

First match I ever remember watching was Edberg v Mecir at Wimbledon and I was hooked (I’m old 😂) I’m pretty sure I was hooked more cause I thought Edberg was cute than cause of tennis itself but here we are
If i asked you to name the one tennis player that made you fall in love with tennis, who would you name? 🎾
