Denis Shapovalov has been accused of being too soft following his straight-set defeat to Alex de Minaur at Queen’s Club.

The Canadian burst onto the ATP Tour in 2017 after a breakthrough run at the Canadian Open, where the then 18-year-old beat Juan Martin del Potro, Rafael Nadal, and more.

The big-hitting left-hander was seen as a hugely exciting young talent but he hasn’t really been able to deliver on his potential.

One Grand Slam semi-final and a highest ranking of 10 arguably make for underwhelming reading for a player of his calibre.

Now aged 27, Shapovalov‘s window of opportunity may be passing, and in the second round at Queen’s Club, De Minaur took him apart on Wednesday.

After a fairly even first set, which went 6-4 to the Australian, Shapovalov wilted on the Andy Murray Arena and lost the second 6-1.

The Tel Aviv-born player made a string of unenforced errors and the much more consistent De Minaur took advantage.

In the space of just over a year, Shapovalov has had three separate coaches in his corner. His six-month stint with Janko Tipsarevic ended in May 2025, before Mikael Tillstrom took over until February.

Mirjam Bjorklund is now coaching the Canadian, who has fallen to 41st in the rankings. During his loss to De Minaur, 1987 Wimbledon champion Pat Cash offered to coaching Shapovalov.

However, he also had some choice words for his attitude and strategy.

He said on the BBC’s coverage of Queen’s, “We know his plan A. It’s smashing serves and hitting spectacular shots but when things aren’t going well, what do you do?

“You’ve got to have a plan B if you get punched in the face a few times. His plan B is more of plan A. He would be the most frustrating player… I would love to sit down with him and work with him for a bit and bring out some toughness.

“When you say he has all the shots, he actually doesn’t have all the shots. He has big swings but he doesn’t have that median shot that is good under pressure but not a complete defensive shot.

“Tennis is a game of controlled aggression. You teeter on that, sometimes a bit more, sometimes a bit less.”

Aryna Sabalenka has achieved the highest of highs, as well as a number lows, throughout an inconsistent 2026 season.

Sabalenka earned the Sunshine Double at Indian Wells and the Miami Open, to become just the fifth women in tennis history to achieve the feat.

However, the World No. 1 is yet to win a Grand Slam so far this year and she endured a difficult period during the European clay court swing.

Sabalenka didn’t get past the quarter-final stages of any tournament on the clay, which included a shock defeat to Diana Shnaider in the last eight of Roland Garros.

In an exclusive interview with Tennis365, Sabalenka’s performance coach, Jason Stacy, confirmed that he thinks they got the World No. 1’s schedule wrong.

Providing an insight into how they concoct Sabalenka’s schedule, Stacy said: “Anton [Dubrov] and I are the ones who discuss what obligations she has, with the agent and the managers. We figure out where she’s at, as far as physically, mentally, emotionally speaking to.

“We have a physio now that travels with us, so they’ve been speaking the physio about what they’re working on, what they might, we look at all the different moving parts, look at outcomes from the previous season, where her energy dipped, as far as be able to manage those things, her emotional and mental, and physical energy.

“I’m very, very much involved in what we’re going to do, not do. Ultimately, you know, she makes that final decision, if she’s going to want to or not. She’ll listen to what we have to say, and, usually she’ll just say: You just tell me’, but it’s a tough decision sometimes.”

But for the clay court swing, Stacy has owned up to his mistake regarding the World No. 1’s schedule.

“Clay, we made a decision, we had to, for a couple reasons, and [it] didn’t work out the way we wanted,” said Stacy, who has overseen Sabalenka’s dominance at the summit of the WTA Tour.

“Maybe the decision we made, as far as scheduling and timing of certain things in our approach, it sounded good, and we all were bought into it, and we thought it might work really well based on last year’s outcome, but, if you just go based on results, maybe it wasn’t the best plan, so we’ll go back and review what worked, what didn’t work, what maybe we could do differently next season to help prepare better.

“That’s a very, very big part of what I do, which again one of those big 3 E’s (energy, emotions, environment) which is managing energy, which is like that’s our number one priority.

Sabalenka only played the Masters events on the clay ahead of Roland Garros, with appearances at the Madrid Open and the Italian Open.

She was knocked out in Madrid by Hailey Baptiste in the quarter-finals, while her tournament was ended in Rome by Sorana Cirstea in the round of 32.

Stacy was speaking exclusively to Tennis365 ahead of the release of his book, The Pressure Code, which is released on September 8th.

Speaking about the books inception, Stacy said: “I just took the core principles that have sort of guided me personally, from when I was younger to all the different people I’ve helped out with, my family, with clients, with Aryna [Sabalenka].”

Injuries are seemingly taking their toll on tennis stars in the men’s and women’s game as Wimbledon draws nearer.

The tennis world was rocked by the news that Carlos Alcaraz‘s wrist injury was more serious than initially feared, prompting the seven-time major winner to withdraw from the French Open and Wimbledon.

Last week, Victoria Mboko became the highest-ranked player on the WTA Tour to pull out of the grass Grand Slam after injuring her knee at Queen’s Club.

Now, former world No 5 Lorenzo Musetti has announced that he too won’t be in London due to an ongoing rectus femoris (quadriceps) problem.

On Wednesday, he wrote on Instagram, “I want to update you on my recovery from the injury I sustained in Rome: rehabilitation is going very well and the medical results are encouraging.

“Unfortunately, as I have not yet been able to begin a full athletic training program, and after careful evaluation, we have come to the difficult conclusion that I will not be able to participate in Wimbledon this year.

“It is not an easy decision, but it is the right one. My priority is to return to the court at 100%. Thank you for your continued support – see you soon.”

For the time being, he becomes the fourth player on the ATP Tour to pull out of Wimbledon. And according to reports, French Open quarter-finalist Matteo Berrettini will take his place in the main draw.

• Carlos Alcaraz (world No 2) – replaced by Jan Choinski
• Lorenzo Musetti (world No 15) – replaced by Matteo Berrettini

• Arthur Cazaux (world No 81) – replaced by Alex Molcan

Incidentally, Berrettini was said to be among the candidates for the remaining two singles wildcards at Wimbledon.

But with his promotion to the main draw, all eyes will be on who gets those two coveted spots.

And when it comes to absentees on the women’s side, Hailey Baptiste is among those who have been struck down by injury heading into the third major of the year.

Serena Williams’ return to doubles has seen her enlist the help of two of the WTA Tour’s very best in the form of Victoria Mboko and Karolina Muchova, but many were surprised to see the 23-time Grand Slam champion not extend an invite to Coco Gauff.

Williams and Mboko won their first match at Queen’s before the Canadian was forced out of the tournament with a knee injury after taking a tumble in her singles match.

The American icon fared less better alongside Muchova as they were defeated in straight sets in Berlin by Erin Routliffe and Giuliana Olmos.

Gauff is playing both singles and doubles at the Berlin Open and there was a report that suggested a first-time-ever partnership with Williams could be on the cards.

Gauff said Williams never asked her to play doubles and the tennis icon has now explained the reason she never extended the invite to the young American.

Serena Williams makes bizarre decision during doubles defeat in Berlin

Speaking at her post-match press conference in Berlin, Williams said: “I would really love to play with Coco [Gauff], she was on my list of people that I wanted to play with.

“I should have done better research on who was on the charts. She’s so focused on singles nowadays, you never really know if [players] are playing doubles. I guess I should have asked her though.”

After her first round defeat in Berlin, Williams now has a 10-day break before the start of Wimbledon, where she will be playing doubles with her sister Venus.

The pair were awarded a wildcard for the doubles draw and they will play their first tournament together at Wimbledon since the 2016 season.

That year was very successful for the pair as they won the title after defeating Yaroslava Shvedova and Timea Babos in straight sets in the final.

2016 marked the Williams sisters’ sixth Wimbledon doubles title, and their 14th and last major doubles title overall, but they will have a chance to battle for the title yet again a decade later.

After her early defeat in Berlin, Williams could play either Eastbourne or Bad Homburg in the week prior to Wimbledon, but she will not be able to play with her sister.

Venus is set to play doubles at Bad Homburg with Alexandra Eala, who will be the American’s sixth different doubles partner across the 2026 season.

She has previously paired with Katie Boulter, Elina Svitolina, Peyton Stearns, Ekaterina Alexandrova, and Leylah Fernandez throughout the year.

The Williams sisters’ comeback at Wimbledon is set to take place between Monday, 29th June and Sunday, 12th July, with the order of play yet to be confirmed by the Grand Slam.

Jannik Sinner’s preparation for Wimbledon this year has been far from conventional as he looks to defend the grass court Grand Slam title.

The Italian has decided not to play a competitive warm-up on the grass, after snubbing the Halle Open for the first time since the 2022 season.

Sinner will, however, play an exhibition event on the grass one week prior to Wimbledon at the Giorgio Armani Tennis Classic at the Hurlingham Club.

The World No. 1 will play alongside Flavio Cobolli, Cameron Norrie, Casper Ruud, Luciano Darderi, and Karen Khachanov at the London event.

However, is preparation for his first grass court event is somewhat unconventional, as he has been spotted practicing in Monte Carlo in the last few days.

Wimbledon set for ‘chaos’ amid Carlos Alcaraz injury woes and Jannik Sinner question marks

Jannik Sinner ‘still a huge favourite to win Wimbledon’ after Roland Garros collapse

In a video posted to social media, the World No. 1 can be seen hitting balls on a hardcourt in Monte Carlo, just 13 days before his first match at Wimbledon.

The transition from clay courts to grass is hard enough, which is part of the reason why this year’s Halle Open has such a stacked entry list, but to move to hardcourts in between seems illogical.

While it is very pleasing to see the World No. 1 back in action, particularly after his health issues at Roland Garros, he has surely given himself a disadvantage already at Wimbledon.

While his appearance at the Hurlingham Club will shake a few cobwebs off, an exhibition contest is hardly enough practice on the surface to lift the title.

After his performance at Roland Garros, Sinner already enters Wimbledon with several question marks floating above his head, with many suggesting he might not even be the favourite to win the Grand Slam.

With the Italian’s lack of preparation on grass, even in training, several of his first week opponents at Wimbledon will surely fancy their hances against the World No. 1.

Although the grass court swing is a notoriously short period in the summer, Sinner holds his worst record on grass out of the three surfaces.

His Wimbledon win last year helped him improve his record, but he still only holds a 75% win rate on the surface. He has won 29 matches on the surface, losing 10.

That has helped him win two titles on grass – the Halle Open in 2024 and Wimbledon in 2025 – but you would have thought he’d be preparing far earlier than he has been so far this season.

With a difficult draw, the World No. 1 could play Novak Djokovic as early as the quarter-finals, so it could be a long and arduous tournament for Sinner.

The post Jannik Sinner spotted doing something very strange to prepare for Wimbledon appeared first on Tennis365.

Wimbledon have announced six of its eight wildcard entries for the men’s singles draw and Nick Kyrgios is yet to make the Grand Slam’s list.

Grigor Dimitrov, Jacob Fearnley, Arthur Fery, Jack Pinnington Jones, Toby Samuel, and Stan Wawrinka have been given instant access to Wimbledon’s main draw, with two more names set to be announced by the Grand Slam.

It is currently unclear who will be named, but there are several names who are still in with a shout.

Dan Evans, who is set to retire following Wimbledon, will be hoping for one of the final spots while the likes of Jack Draper, Matteo Berrettini, and Nick Kyrgios will also have an eye on the announcement.

Kyrgios has received a wildcard for the Wimbledon doubles, where he will play with Alexander Bublik, but his chances for the singles look slim.

However, if Kyrgios was in with a shout of receiving a Wimbledon wildcard, it’s not surprising to see the Grand Slam wait until the last moment to offer him the spot.

The Australian has just made a decision that makes it very unlikely that he will receive the accolade from Wimbledon.

Greg Rusedski says if Nick Kyrgios deserves a wildcard for Wimbledon this year

The star was set to play the Halle Open in both the singles and doubles, but the Australian has decided to withdraw from the event with a knee injury.

The Australian has suffered with injuries for much of the latter part of his career and it’s derailed his ability to play tournaments back to back.

As such, his singles match with Ben Shelton has been cancelled and so has his doubles match alongside Mattia Bellucci against Ethan Quinn and Learner Tien.

Kyrgios is far too inconsistent to receive a wildcard for the singles draw at Wimbledon, and his recent comeback has also seen him play two matches before his latest withdrawal.

The Australian played his first tournament in five months at the Stuttgart Open on the grass, where he defeated Corentin Moutet and lost to Sho Shimabukuro.

He looked in good shape during the tournament, but it has clearly caught up with him following his decision to miss the Halle Open.

As talented and popular as he is, Kyrgios is simply not reliable enough to earn a wildcard in the singles draw for Wimbledon this year.

Kyrgios has not played Wimbledon since 2022, when he made it all the way to the final. The Australian defeated the likes of Stefanos Tsitsipas, Brandon Nakashima, and Cristian Garín, before he was defeated in the final by Novak Djokovic in four sets.

In recent years, Kyrgios has worked on Wimbledon commentary, for the likes of the BBC and TalkSPORT.

The post Nick Kyrgios has just proved why Wimbledon were right not to give him a singles wildcard appeared first on Tennis365.

Wimbledon have announced all but three of the players who have received singles wildcards for this year’s tournament, while some big name doubles teams have been confirmed.

The 2026 Wimbledon Championships is less than two weeks away, with main draw action set to take place from Monday 29 June to Sunday 12 July.

Serena Williams made a sensational comeback in doubles at the Queen’s Club Championships last week, and it had been expected that the tennis icon would make her return to Wimbledon.

It has now been confirmed that the 44-year-old and her older sister Venus Williams have been given a wildcard for the women’s doubles event at the All England Club.

The Williams sisters won six Wimbledon doubles titles together between 2000 and 2016.

There had been much debate over which players would receive main draw singles wildcards, with a host of high-profile stars ranked outside the top 100 at the time of the entry list cutoff.

Some questions have now been answered, with seven of the eight women’s wildcards and six of the eight men’s wildcards having been confirmed.

Wimbledon women’s singles wildcards

Poland’s Maja Chwalinska has been awarded a wildcard following her stunning run to the final at Roland Garros as a qualifier.

Six British women have received main draw wildcards: Harriet Dart, Alicia Dudeney, Hannah Klugman, Mika Stojsavljevic, Katie Swan and Mimi Xu.

This leaves one women’s singles wildcard spot, and it is widely expected to be given to Serena Williams.

Wimbledon men’s singles wildcards

On the men’s side, wildcards have been given to Grigor Dimitrov, Stan Wawrinka, Jacob Fearnley, Arthur Fery, Jack Pinnington Jones and Toby Samuel.

Dimitrov, a Wimbledon semi-finalist in 2014, was forced to retire due to injury at last year’s event when leading Jannik Sinner by two sets to love in the fourth round.

Wawrinka, a three-time Grand Slam finalist, is retiring from tennis at the end of 2026.

With just two men’s wildcards still to be awarded, some notable ATP players are set to be disappointed.

As things stand, the following players will need a main draw wildcard to compete:

• Nick Kyrgios, a Wimbledon runner-up in 2022 (The Australian has, though, been given a doubles wildcard, with Alexander Bublik his partner).
• Matteo Berrettini, a Wimbledon runner-up in 2021.
• Fan favourite Gael Monfils, who is in the final year of his career.
• Former British No 1 Dan Evans, who will retire after Wimbledon.

Men’s tennis is likely to get a bit more “chaotic” following a hugely unpredictable and exciting French Open.

That is according to tennis content creator and commentator Gill Gross, who feels the “stability” of Carlos Alcaraz and Jannik Sinner’s dominance in 2025 has not been repeated this year.

The duo split the Grand Slams last year, and while Alcaraz triumphed in Australia, Sinner – who has won all five of this year’s Masters events – fell in the second round at Roland Garros, as question marks over his conditioning sprang up again.

With the Spaniard set to miss Wimbledon due to injury, Sinner being desperate to win his first major in a year, and more consistent players such as Alex de Minaur and Taylor Fritz having on-and-off seasons, Gross thinks the coming months could throw in some surprise results.

Indeed, there were signs of this last year on the ATP Tour when Ben Shelton won his first Masters title in Canada and qualifier Valentin Vacherot did the same in Shanghai.

Gross said on his YouTube channel, “I do wonder if Roland Garros is going to give way to a little bit of a period of chaos because I don’t think that… although we did have the Masters 1000 in Shanghai last year, and Canada was a little bit more open last year, with which obviously Ben Shelton won.

“I think there was still a general stability. And even after Sinner and Alcaraz, there was De Minaur and Fritz, for example, who had a very consistent year. [Novak] Djokovic has been really consistent in slams, but maybe that starts to fade a little bit.

“There are scenarios in which, after Sinner and Alcaraz, it’s still really unclear how long Carlos will be out, and it gets a lot more messy.

“I’m trying not to use negative words because I don’t think it’s a negative thing, but it’s going to start to be more mushy in terms of who’s the fifth-best player in the world versus the 15th. I think that gap might remain pretty small, and it’s going to be harder and harder to predict these kinds of things.”

While De Minaur and Shelton are at career-highs in the rankings in fifth and sixth respectively, Fritz is down in eighth, and other established players such as Casper Ruud and Lorenzo Musetti have fallen to 12th and 14th.

De Minaur is ninth in the race, while Fritz, who has had an injury-blighted season, is 28th, and Djokovic is 14th.

And of course, the biggest shakeup of all was Alexander Zverev finally winning his first Grand Slam by beating Flavio Cobolli in the Roland Garros final in five sets. Heading into Wimbledon, it is all to play for.

Alexander Zverev achieved his biggest ever victory at Roland Garros, but his attention has already turned towards the grass court swing.

The German won his first-ever Grand Slam in Paris after defeating Flavio Cobolli in a five-set final, but now he is looking to turn around his grass court form.

Zverev has only ever reached as far as the fourth round of Wimbledon and he is yet to earn an ATP Tour singles title on the surface.

He will be hoping to change that at the Halle Open, his first tournament since Roland Garros, as several top stars begin their progress on the grass.

Zverev is already looking to put his Roland Garros win in the rearview mirror as he looks to win the Halle Open for the first time in his career.

Speaking to press ahead of the German event, he said: “The tournament is in Germany, so you want to perform and play at your best. I’ve been practising quite hard and practising quite [well]. It’s a tough adjustment from a good but long clay-court season to a grass court in a couple of days. But I’ll do my best and will be ready.”

However, Zverev also issued a worrying update about his progress on the surface ahead of his appearance at the Halle Open and Wimbledon.

Asked how his grass court game is shaping up, he responded: “I don’t know yet, I’ll be honest. I’ve only had two practice days.

“It’s a tough adjustment, it’s tough to come from the clay courts to grass courts and we didn’t have the best weather here yet, so I haven’t had a lot of practice, but tennis-wise I do feel like I’m playing good. Of course I played well the past couple of weeks, but the adjustment is the one that needs some time.

“I didn’t have time yet, so I hope the next two days will be sunshine and I can practise a lot and just be ready on the court.”

Zverev reached back-to-back finals at the Halle Open in 2016 and 2017, but he is yet to claim the title. He was beaten by Florian Mayer and Roger Federer in back-to-back years.

The star has not reached the final since, but he has played the event several times over the years.

He will play Vít Kopřiva in the first round of this year’s event as he looks to claim the first grass court title of his career.

He has been drawn in the same side of the draw as Joao Fonseca, Taylor Fritz, Alexander Bublik, and Nick Kyrgios, so it will not be easy for the number one seed.

The post Alexander Zverev says what he’s been struggling with most ahead of Wimbledon – ‘I’ll be honest’ appeared first on Tennis365.

Nick Kyrgios is remarkably back in action on the ATP Tour and many are questioning whether the Australian will be given a wildcard for Wimbledon.

The star had not played on the ATP Tour since the beginning of the year, when he played at the Brisbane International and the Australian Open on home soil.

Kyrgios received wildcards in Stuttgart and Halle on the grass and his level has surprised fans considering his lack of ATP-level action over the past few months.

Despite Kyrgios’ successful return to the sport, Rusedski believes giving him a Wimbledon wildcard into the main draw might be a step too far for the Aussie.

Speaking on his podcast, Off Court with Greg, the British icon said: “Nick Kyrgios got a wild card as well and and the big debate right now is: ‘Will he get a wild card in the main draw, qualies or will they say no to him?’

“That’s where Mr. [Tim] Henman has a little bit of a job to decide what does he do. I’m not so sure he deserves the main draw wild card,  qualies I think would probably be more sufficed but I’m glad I don’t have to make the decision.”

Kyrgios returned to action at the Stuttgart Open and Rusedski was impressed by the level of the Australian, as he defeated Corentin Moutet in straight sets in the first round.

“He served 84% first serves and he still got one of the best serves in the business. unbelievable feel and hands,” said the former British No. 1.

“But the question, does he have enough reps and he’s he physically strong enough for three out of five sets? Because it’s one thing to play two out of three sets, it’s another thing to play three out of five sets.

“He’s still a big draw card in the men’s game, just because of the controversies,” said Rudeski. “But has he done enough work? And that’s where Wimbledon’s going to have to make a difficult decision.

“I’m kind of favouring that he’ll probably get it in qualies, I’d be surprised if he got a main draw wild card, but he’s still one of the biggest draws in men’s tennis.”

Kyrgios is set to continue his preparations for a potential Wimbledon appearance at the Halle Open, where he’s been drawn against Ben Shelton in the first round.

The Australian is also set to play doubles alongside Mattia Bellucci and the pair will play the all-American duo of Ethan Quinn and Learner Tien in round one.
