Saturday was Arthur Ashe Kids’ Day at the US Open, the annual pre-tournament meeting of pro players, pop stars and pre-teens. CBS will be broadcasting  highlights from the day, which included the on court talents of Andy Roddick, Roger Federer, Rafael Nadal and Kim Clijsters, on Sunday afternoon: 12:00 – 1:30 pm, Eastern time. I [...]

Big thanks to GTT reader, LongLiveKingRog, for passing this along. The Federer/Nadal promo video that was leaked out from the Cincy Master’s tournament is now official. For those unlucky few who weren’t able to watch the uncut version, you at least have this nicely edited version. Credit Suisse was kind enough to offer the video [...]

The pre-US Open marketing festivities climaxed on a stormy Wednesday night in NYC with the Nike Primetime Knockout tennis event at Pier 54. The souped up hit-and-giggle followed a pro/am doubles format and featured the talents of (an injured) Serena Williams, Roger Federer, Maria Sharapova, Rafael Nadal, Victoria Azarenka and John McEnroe. Oh, and some [...]

Rafael Nadal’s 2010 US Open outfit

Tonight, Wednesday, August 25, is Nike’s Primetime Knockout Event, a slick hit-and-giggle featuring Nike-sponsored tennis legends John McEnroe, Rafael Nadal, Roger Federer, Maria Sharapova and the still-injured Serena Williams (will she play guest chair ump?) Not-yet-legends Victoria Azarenka and the young Madison Keys will be taking part, along with some “hot celebrities.” Methinks it’s going [...]

Big thanks to GTT reader, Nusi, for posting this video of Roger Federer and Rafael Nadal being grilled by Cincinnati.com junior journalists, Abigail Singer and Katherine Arnole.

Looking at an exciting Friday in Cincy with Fish vs. Murray, Roddick vs. Djokovic, Federer vs. Davydenko and Nadal vs. Baghdatis in the quarterfinals. Murray, Nadal, Davydenko and Roddick all survived tough three set matches on Thursday while Fed has played a grand total of 37 minutes this week, with a retirement vs. Istomin in [...]

*UPDATE* Well, I got the cease and desist via email today, so I had to take the best tennis video ever off GOTOTENNIS. Sorry folks! The legal budget’s a little tight around here. But I’m assuming all you die hard Fedal nerds have watched it at least twenty times by now and can now reenact [...]

Roger Federer was in a jovial mood in his press conference on Saturday night, after almost letting his semifinal match vs. Novak Djokovic slip through his fingers. He was pushed to 7-5 in the third set after winning the first 6-1 and being up 4-1 in the third. Relief makes him slap happy, I guess. [...]

Hey GTT peeps, just a quick update with photos from the current semi-final match at Rogers Cup. Andy Murray seems to have come out with a solid game plan against Nadal.

Here are some action shots from today’s entertaining quarterfinal between Rafael Nadal and Philipp Kohlschreiber at the Rogers Cup. Rafa lost the first set to the aggressive German one-hander, but eventually righted the ship and [...]
