Tennis News, Scores & Stories – Your Quick Guide to the Game
If you love tennis but hate scrolling through endless sites, you’re in the right place. Here we bring you the most important match results, player news and tournament previews you need right now. No fluff, just the facts that matter to you.
Today’s Top Matches and Scores
Yesterday’s biggest showdown was the ATP 250 in Durban, where South Africa’s own Liam Moyo upset the third seed with a 6‑4, 3‑6, 7‑5 win. The crowd went wild when Moyo hit a blistering backhand down the line in the final set – a moment you’ll see replayed on the highlights reel.
On the women’s side, the WTA 500 in Nairobi saw Karin Karanja rally from a set down to defeat Japan’s rising star Aya Tanaka, 3‑6, 6‑3, 6‑4. Karanja’s aggressive serve‑and‑volley game turned the tide, and she’s now looking to break into the top 30.
What’s Coming Up
The next big event is the African Open in Accra, kicking off next Monday. Expect a packed draw with past champions like Mohamed Salah (yes, the footballer’s brother who switched to tennis) and rising African talents from Kenya, Nigeria and Egypt. Early betting odds favor the local favorite, Samuel Osei, but history shows anything can happen on these hard courts.
If you’re curious about Grand Slam prospects, keep an eye on the upcoming French Open qualifiers. Several African players have earned a spot in the main draw, including Abigail Ndlovu from Zambia, who has been training on clay all year. Her recent win over a seasoned French player suggests she could cause a few upsets.
Beyond scores, we also track player injuries, coaching changes and equipment updates. For instance, Julius Mwangi announced a switch to a new racket brand last week, saying it gives him more power on his forehand. Such details can influence match outcomes and are worth noting if you’re a fan or a fantasy league participant.
