Youth participation across baseball (-20%) and tackle football (-13%) is down a lot over the several years, while sports like tennis (+51%), Golf (+32%), and soccer (+4%) have seen substantial growth. Also, boys (40%) are still more likely to play sports than girls (35%) — but…

We are saddened to hear of the passing of coach Dave Borelli. He loved TCU tennis and we will miss him dearly. May he rest in peace.

Over the past 50 years, I’ve seen and studied every champion in tennis. I have never seen anyone like Novak Djokovic. The combination of mental, physical, and emotional strength that goes into every shot is unmatched. Time to really appreciate this man.👍👏

Appalled that the National Tennis Center/US Open has no courts this week because they are being used for pickle ball. The mission of @usta @USTAEastern is to promote and grow tennis locally and nationally. NOT OKAY. Please RT @ClubLeftTennis @racquetmagazine @CrackedRacquets

Paid a visit to "the Disneyland" of racket sports in San Diego and played tennis, pickleball and padel in the same afternoon with @ryan_redondo10s . Is this one-stop shopping the model for the future? And will it help everyone finally get along? nytimes.com/2023/05/11/spo…

Hall of Famer Vic Braden was a pioneer in teaching the sport of tennis. His coaching highlighted physics and video analysis while also focusing on fun for the players. Episode 4 of #TennisWorthy presented by Infosys with @thetracyaustin is LIVE! 🔗: youtu.be/d4hCNf9-6Kg

Much will be written about Roger Federer this week but please note that in a career spanning 24 years with over 1500 singles matches and 200 doubles matches, he NEVER retired from a match. Win or lose, he gave the best he had that day. No quit. A great champion and a greater man.

After a Ukrainian fan was asked to leave a match featuring two Russian players, @TheDolgo spoke out for his home country. #TheBreakTC


Absolutely insane.

Russian protesters gather in front of the U.S. Embassy in Moscow to protest America’s decision to send weapons to Ukraine that are “wounding and killing Russian soldiers”. There is a solution to your problem dear Russians, don’t invade sovereign states.

It’s only putin, they said, yep, nice try

Russian companies and their employees happily aid Russia’s war in Ukraine by spreading propaganda videos. Here we have Sima-Land employees in Yekaterinburg voicing their support for Putin This isn’t just Putin’s war. Ban EU tourist visas for Russians now

Medvedev says he was asked by the referee if he was ok to finish the match today instead of being moved after Federer's match, and he said yes. Didn't want to wait as RF was only in the first set. About today: just says he played really bad.
