There is always that one match on which players–and fans–can look back and think how different things might have been had it gone the other way. Some cases, of course, are more extreme than others. But for all of the World Tour Finals qualifiers, and for those who missed out, let’s take a look at the matches that decided their year-end championship fate. […]
Andy Murray joined an already extensive list of absentees from the upcoming U.S. Open when he announced his withdrawal on Saturday afternoon. Murray has not taken the court since Wimbledon due to a hip injury, but he showed up in New York hoping that his body would allow him to play. […]
The 2017 U.S. Open draw ceremony was held on Friday afternoon in New York City. Roger Federer’s placement in the bracket was always going to be the big story, and it certainly is: he could face Rafael Nadal in the semis rather than the final. […]
A breakdown of the U.S. Open seeding groups: 1, 2, 3-4, 5-8, 9-12, 13-16, 17-24, and 25-32. Who is looking good at the top? Who could cause a third-round upset as a 25-32 seed? Those questions will be asked–and, soon enough, answered. […]

Andy Murray will continue his quest for a third Wimbledon title when he takes the court against Sam Querrey on Wednesday. Somewhat surprising quarterfinalist Gilles Muller is facing an in-form Marin Cilic. […]
Two of the Big 4 advanced to the Wimbledon quarterfinals on Monday. A third can do the same on Tuesday. The fourth, however, is no more at the All-England Club. Reigning French Open champion Rafael fell in five sets to Gilles Muller. […]
Andy Murray will continue his bid for a third Wimbledon title when he takes the court against Benoit Paire on the second Monday. A quarterfinal spot will also be at stake when Sam Querrey faces Kevin Anderson. […]
