Jelena Djokovic's spectacular statements on how she has experienced her husband's success and what she believes will be the legacy he leaves when he retires from tennis.
After missing the event for a few years due to the complexity of the calendar in its final stretch, Iga Swiatek just announced that this November she will indeed be present at the Billie Jean King Cup Finals in Málaga to lead the Polish team to victory. A piece of great news for her country, the event, and everyone except Spain, as the first match for Anabel Medina's team will be against them. Beyond the draw, it's a joy to see the current World No. 2 regain that commitment to the world's most important team competition.
🎾 See you in Malaga! I'm glad to let you know today that I will play in the Billie Jean King Cup finals. I'm very happy to be able to play for my country and proudly represent Poland as always. Together with the whole team, we will give our all and simply play the best... pic.twitter.com/E6hTpv8nTb

Last night, the ITF announced that support for coaching in 2025 will be reinforced by all organizations after a few trial years where the outcome has been satisfactory for most players, coaches, and umpires. However, that majority is not 100%, there will always be people strongly opposed to this new rule. Denis Shapovalov wasted no time in showing his disapproval on social media, just like Taylor Fritz who didn't hesitate to speak out on Twitter: "Can we stop ruining the mental/strategic aspect of the sport?"

Only four main draw matches have been witnessed this Monday in the ATP 500 in Vienna 2024, although none as decisive as Alexander Zverev's victory over the young local player Joel Schwaerzler (6-2, 6-2). The German did not fail, with his clear aim to end the week holding the title. Besides the top seed, the other players who also delivered on their debuts were Flavio Cobolli, Matteo Berrettini, and Jakub Mensik, the latter winning a clash against Alexei Popyrin (7-6, 6-2) that we are sure to see repeated many times in the future.

We don't know if this ATP 500 in Basel 2024 will end with a smile for Andrey Rublev, what we do know is that his first match hasn't been too complicated. A solid victory for the Russian against Nuno Borges (6-3, 6-2) to confirm that he arrives in Switzerland with the confidence and level to vie for the title, although there is still a long way to go. This Monday, we also saw wins in the main draw for Ugo Humbert, Arthur Fils, David Goffin, and Giovanni Mpetshi Perricard. Tomorrow will be the time to enjoy others like Shelton, Rune, Tsitsipas, or Shapovalov.

Those of us who follow the tennis circuit always feel a certain thrill when we find out that athletes from other disciplines like to pick up a racket from time to time because they are quite good at it. In the case of Diego Forlán, former striker for teams like Manchester United, Villarreal, or Atlético de Madrid, we were aware that he almost reached a competitive level. Well, that opportunity will come for the Uruguayan at 45 years old, teaming up with Fede Coria in the upcoming Challenger de Montevideo. This madness quickly went viral throughout the afternoon this Monday, so everyone mark it on the calendar to not miss out on what could come from there.
It was obvious, I told you so. Diego Forlán is going to play doubles with Fede Coria at the Challenger de Montevideo next month.

Puntodebreak meets with Martín to chat about his qualities as a tennis player, confidence in his process, and the season he is experiencing. This is the great jewel of Spanish tennis.
It only took us a few minutes to receive the first impressions about the ITF's announcement regarding the boost that coaching will have for the 2025 season, where all individual matches will have the option to see coaches in action helping their players. Denis Shapovalov, a tennis romantic, took to social media to criticize this rule and clearly position himself in opposition to this practice continuing in the professional realm. What do you think? Are you on the same side as the Canadian or do you support further encouraging coaching?
Not just as a tennis player but as a fan of this sport it’s sad to see this new off court coaching rule. Tennis is special because you are out there alone. Why are you trying to change the beauty of this game
