I was never into this lone RED clay court tournament site in The States going back to the 80's in River Oaks!

Is it proper red clay? and why is it the only one?
Also Casper Ruud is the No 1 seed...I doubt if he will make it seeing he is in the final at Miami

Don't be a hater LOL Most of the clay in this country is that sickly gray/green stuff you see in the Carolina tournaments. I seem to recall the owner of this event back in the day was some sort of mattress king. IIRC he actually installed real red clay surface for this event. Is that still true?

Amazon Prime have lost the rights to broadcast the US Open from 2023 onwards.
Sky Sports set to make a return to tennis with ATP and WTA contracts also up from grabs from the start of 2024.

Probably not! I don't think it's that Har Tru stuff of the USO's of the mid 70's! That was a joke; esp. that BLUE Stuff Ian Tiriac laid down in 2012's Madrid Masters event! I sorta remember the rankings were pretty close between Novak and Rafa! Nole needed to just win 1 more round to overtake Rafa for #1! Rafa was upset early and Novak got outta there the next day achieving his goal! They both thought they might break an ankle or twist a knee on that slippery crap which was perfect for Roger! He probably won his last clay event there over Berdych; "Slip Slidin' Away!"

Dont mention that Blue Stuff Tiriac laid down in Madrid it was downright dangerous,I grew up on proper red clay,big difference to that sticky stuff.

IDK for sure, but reports said it was the DYE Tiriac used which made the court slippery! Hard to believe it totally changed the texture by that much!

Medvedev will be out 1-2 months because of a herniated disc apparently. He is having a small procedure done per his insta account. Both tours have really fallen apart.

Just read that news, positive thing for Medvedev he does not have many points to defend in the clay season which most likely now he will miss,so his ranking many not drop that much considering how others do on the clay

This was the most funny hug of both players on the net, Robredo and Murray

LOL! I remember that hug Tommy is officially retiring at the Barcelona tournament this year

FAA is taking a wild card into the ATP250 tournament in Marakkech,where he is the No 1 seed,I guess after his early losses in IW and Miami,this is a positive move.

 

[MargaretMcAleer]

Casper Ruud top seed in ATP250 Huston tournament has withdrawn he has been suffering with 'wisdom teeth pain' in Miami for a few days and needs to have it looked at.

Casper Ruud top seed in ATP250 Huston tournament has withdrawn he has been suffering with 'wisdom teeth pain' in Miami for a few days and needs to have it looked at.

Or maybe just a graceful withdrawal, like Swiatek's. Anyway, thanks...I was waiting for that before filling out my draw for Houston.
