Zverev and Zheng, great leaders in terms of direct serves in 2024

Alexander Zverev and Qinwen Zheng have become the best servers in the world on the ATP and WTA circuit, respectively, as evidenced by the fact that they have hit the most direct aces. This is also related to the many matches they have played, but the importance of this shot in their competitive development cannot be ignored. Zverev hit 797 aces, followed by Hurkacz with 736, and Fritz with 725. Meanwhile, Zheng achieved 445 direct serves, holding a significant lead over Rybakina with 358, and Sabalenka with 307.

Pere Riba will not be with Qinwen Zheng at the next Australian Open

Qinwen Zheng will face a double challenge in the 2025 Australian Open. In addition to defending the final reached this season, the Chinese player will have to tackle the tournament without her coach, Pere Riba. The Spaniard will undergo hip surgery during these dates, so he will be out of action until the month of March. After making some phone calls to find a temporary replacement, IMG has ended up choosing Dante Bottini to accompany Qinwen on this first adventure of the calendar, although communication with Pere will be daily from a distance. An interesting opportunity for the Argentine coach, who has previously worked with Kei Nishikori, Nicolas Jarry, and Grigor Dimitrov.

The final of the WTA Finals is decided for the first time in history in the third-set tiebreak

The final of the WTA Finals was thrilling, and until the last moment, there were doubts about who would be the proud winner of the title that marks the culmination of the women's season. It wasn't until the tiebreak of the third set that it was uncertain who would clinch the victory, marking a historic milestone in the WTA Finals. For the first time in the history of the format since its establishment in 1972, the final was decided in the tiebreak of the last set, highlighting the equality between Qinwen Zheng and Cori Gauff. The final score was 3-6 6-4 7-6.

WTA 2024. Who was the player with the most aces? And the most double faults?

The WTA 2024 season came to an end a week ago, with only the Billie Jean King Finals in Malaga left to finish. Therefore, it's time to highlight some statistics that are always of interest to those who have followed the calendar since the beginning of the year. For instance, do you know who was the player with the most aces this season? While we are used to seeing names like Karolina Pliskova, Caroline Garcia, or Elena Rybakina at the top, this time it's Qinwen Zheng who claimed the first spot with a total of 445 points earned with her powerful serve. Looking at the double faults leaderboard, Coco Gauff stands out (430), but these errors did not stop her from ending the season on a high note by winning the WTA Finals and solidifying her position in the top 3 worldwide. One of our own, Paula Badosa, appears in both rankings.
