Jimmy Connors was one of the players who suffered the most from Ivan Lendl's on-court solidity. 40 years ago, at the Miami tournament, frustration led to his disqualification.
Ivan Lendl
Jannik Sinner continues to add up. The most consistent tennis player of the year doesn't slow down, even in a match where nothing was at stake, like the one he had against Ben Shelton. Nevertheless, the Italian secured the victory, moving on to the semifinals of the ATP Finals without dropping a set, a feat achieved only by three other players before. The San Candido native has reached the semifinals in all four Grand Slams of 2025 and in the ATP Finals, thus matching Novak Djokovic (2012, 2013, 2015, 2021, 2023), Roger Federer (2005, 2006, 2007, 2009), and Ivan Lendl (1987).

Alexander Zverev continues his quest to win his first Grand Slam, a goal he has pursued for nearly a decade with the help of several coaches throughout his career. However, he struggled to form a bond of trust with many, leading to dismissals and his father stepping in to take the lead indefinitely in recent months. In an interview with Tennis Magazin, Sascha revealed who was the coach that helped him the most... and has Spanish origins:
"Beyond my father, David Ferrer was the one who truly helped me. My work with the rest of the coaches was not successful," Sascha pointed out, recalling that the reason for their breakup was that David didn't want to travel many weeks a year (especially during COVID times). Not only that: the German player criticized one of his former coaches, Ivan Lendl. "Ivan had a new dog and all he did was teach it how to use the toilet. That was his main interest. And golf," remarked Zverev, who also left the door open for Boris Becker to advise him in the future, stating that the only issue is "his travels" and that once this aspect is resolved, they could discuss a potential partnership.

Ivan Lendl is one of the great legends of tennis and remains very attentive to everything that happens in our sport. In words given to an Italian media outlet, the former Czech player shows his astonishing respect for Sinner's progression. "I see in Jannik a constant desire to improve, he has realized that if you relax even a little, others start to beat you. That's one of his great qualities. He appeared more vulnerable to me before, but he continues to improve. Alcaraz and he are superior to the rest," he explained.
This is what Ivan Lendl, who will award the winner of the US Open on Sunday, said about Jannik Sinner and Carlos Alcaraz 🎙️

Hubert Hurkacz has announced through his social networks which two men will be part of his team in 2025 as coaches: Ivan Lendl and Nicolás Massú. The Polish player will have them for the upcoming 2025 season to give a new boost to his career, and what better way than with a multiple Grand Slam champion like Lendl and an Olympic gold medalist like the Chilean. We will see how they fare in this high-voltage union.
