Carlos Alcaraz will go for the DOUBLE CAREER SLAM at the 2027 Australian Open at age 23😱

Novak Djokovic did it at age 34
Rafael Nadal did it at age 35

[José Morgado @josemorgado]

No "see you next year" from Djokovic.

"God knows what happens tomorrow or in six months so... it has been a great ride".

Qué jodida locura nos ha regalado Carlos Alcaraz esta noche.

Stan Wawrinka’s last ever point won at the #AusOpen sums up his talent.

[Marin Cilic @cilic_marin]

One of the best 5th sets ever alongside
Federer vs Nadal '08 Wimbledon +
Djok vs Nadal AO 2012?
Unbelievable level

[Mardy Fish @MardyFish]

Toughest sport in the world. No clock to run out. No timeouts to call. No subs to come in for you. No one to sit there and tell you what to do…This is as good as it gets guys 🎾

[The Tennis Letter @TheTennisLetter]

Carlos Alcaraz hits a RIDICULOUS shot in Rotterdam.

Behind the back lob?!?! 🤯🤯🤯

Followed up by a down the line winner.

Classic Carlitos smile to top it off.

This guy is special.

Simona Halep has announced her retirement.

Best wishes in the next chapter, @Simona_Halep! 💙

[Christopher Clarey 🇺🇸 🇫🇷 🇪🇸 @christophclarey]

Simona Halep, tennis's latest retiree. A decidedly downbeat finish at age 33 to a remarkable career. Never could bounce back after her doping suspension

She announces her retirement after a 6-1 6-1 defeat to Lucia Bronzetti at the Translyvania Open

No. 1 for 64 weeks
Wimbledon & French Open champ
3 other major finals
22 other singles titles
