We review in detail everything that happened in the epic match between Spain and the United States in the United Cup 2026, with Gauff and Fritz facing off against Bouzas and Munar.
Cori Gauff
The ATP season kicked off with the United Cup 2026, already featuring exciting matches and names. While the first day of competition showcased a rejuvenated Stefanos Tsitsipas and a strong performance from Maria Sakkari for the Greek team, the lineup for Saturday, January 3, includes compelling matches and the first appearances of several top-10 players. Coco Gauff will debut against Solana Sierra, who displayed impressive tennis in their initial match. Also, Taylor Fritz will face a fresh Sebastián Báez, Stan Wawrinka will play his first match of the year against Arthur Rinderknech, and the highlight of the day might be a showdown between two top-15 players, Alex de Miñaur and Casper Ruud. A gourmet menu awaits.

Cori Gauff faces the new season with renewed energy and enthusiasm, and before starting her journey in the United Cup 2026, she appeared at a press conference and shared interesting thoughts. "Starting the year with this team competition is ideal, the perfect balance between fun and competitive pressure. Every day I feel more comfortable with my tennis; I've been able to rest and train well in Florida this preseason. I want to be more consistent to be able to fight for the number 1 spot in the WTA rankings," said a woman who was asked about which ATP circuit players she enjoys watching the most, choosing Alcaraz, Sinner, and Medvedev.

We review the main reasons to watch the United Cup 2026 live from January 2 to 11, in Perth and Sydney.
Eugenie Bouchard wanted to get involved and pointed out Coco Gauff, highlighting the future potential of the American player in pickleball: "She is very athletic, she would dominate singles right away. I wasn't that good at doubles, and that shows in my difficulties in doubles and pickleball, so I don't know. Top five? I'd give her like eight months to achieve it," said Bouchard, as reported by tennishead.

Beware of the very interesting lineup of players joining the latest innovation of the 2026 Australian Open. It's a mini-tournament as an exhibition where 10 amateur players will face off against 22 professionals, with each match worth one point. Already confirmed as 'pros' are Carlos Alcaraz, Jannik Sinner, Nick Kyrgios, Iga Swiatek, and Coco Gauff. We will have to wait to see which team walks away with 1 million Australian dollars.

A novel format with increasing appeal in an incomparable setting. That's how the curious "One Point Slam" at the 2026 Australian Open could be defined, which will be staged for the second time before the tournament begins. Taking place at the Rod Laver Arena, it will mix professionals and amateurs, each "duel" lasting just one point... and will distribute a one million euro prize. Its latest big news? Three great names have joined the participant list led by Carlos Alcaraz. They are Jannik Sinner, Iga Swiatek, and Coco Gauff, three heavyweights in the tennis world who could face amateurs... or battle it out among themselves. Quite something.
