  • The Best Mexican Couple Surpassed the Best Couple in History at Plaza Mexico
    The Best Mexican Couple Surpassed the Best Couple in History at Plaza Mexico Mexico City, November 23, 2019 - Mexico won the doubles match against the United States, in a match that opened the square for the exhibition of The Greatest Match, with a brilliant performance by Santiago Gonzalez and Miguel Ángel Reyes Varela, against the historic pair of twins, Mike and Bob Bryan. The match was celebrated with a great entry of people, who came in early to fill the stands, and began with the dominance of the Davis Cup Mexican couple, who managed to break Mike Bryan's serve once in the third game of the match, winning it by 6-3. The American brothers did not want to say goodbye to the show so soon and dominated the second set, breaking Reyes-Varela serve and sending the encounter to a final super tie break, with a partial 4-6. The most spectacular moment of the day was experienced during this second set, with a rally in which all four players participated and which was defined in favor of the Mexicans, with a crossed volley by Santiago Gonzalez. The duel ended unexpectedly, when the Mexican couple took a 9-0 advantage in the tiebreaker, which ended with a partial 10-2. The audience roared a spectacular ovation for Santy and Micky from the stands, who won a cash prize of $20,000, but, above all, the people’s recognition on a day that will be marked in history. “It was an incredible experience. We had a great time on the court.

  • Murray Drawn to Face Willis, Ivanisevic in Tie Break Tens Group Stages
    Murray Drawn To Face Willis, Ivanisevic In Tie Break Tens Group Stages The World No.2 Andy Murray has been drawn to face the 2001 Wimbledon champion Goran Ivanisevic and unlikely Wimbledon hero Marcus Willis in the round- robin stages of Tie Break Tens, which takes place on Sunday night. World No.10 Dominic Thiem, the 2008 Australian Open runner-up Jo Wilfried Tsonga and former World No.2 Tommy Haas will contest the other group. The top two players in each group will advance to the semifinals. The winner of the final will receive a winner-takes-all cheque for $250,000. Each match will take the form of a quick-fire, first-to-10 point tie-break (with a margin of two points). Willis will be taking on a childhood hero in Ivanisevic, and arguably the best player in the world at the moment in Murray. He still thinks he can win. ‘Could I beat Andy Murray in a ten-point tie-break? Probably,” said Willis. “It’s ten points. Accrington Stanley would lose to Manchester United over 90 minutes, but in a 10-minute match they would stand a chance. I think it will suit my game. It’s exciting, it’s a sprint, and the crowd are going to be into it. I’m lucky to have been given this opportunity and I’m going to get in there.” Tie Break Tens Vienna will take place at 7pm CET on Sunday (6pm UK). It will be televised live on ORF in Austria, and Sky Sports in the UK.

  • Inside the STMS-June 2012
    Inside the JUNE 2012 Hello All!!! The French Open is over after a grueling couple of weeks. STMS board member, Dr. Bernard Montalvan and his team, assuredly did a great job of caring for the players during this tournament. Now we approach the challenging summer season including the tournaments leading up to the Wimbledon Championships. We have been busy with STMS with updating the website to include treatment algorithms, adding more consistent sections in the journal and the newsletter, and planning upcoming confer- ences. We are pleased to have added USTA (United States Tennis Association) as a supporting partner of STMS this year. We also have had more interest from other corporate sponsors which will be very helpful in allowing us to achieve more of our society’s mission. Please mark your calendars for upcoming conferences. The 13th STMS World Congress will be held in Buenos Aires, Argentina February 21-24th, 2013 and will be run by our current STMS president, Javier Maquirriain, M.D. We are excited to host our first STMS conference in the South American region, and we know that Javier and his hosts will provide us with a wonderful experience! Please make sure to start preparing your tennis medicine research for submission for this and other STMS conferences. Mark Kovacs and I are also hard at work organizing an STMS-USTA Tennis Medicine North American Regional Conference, December 14-16th, 2012 in Atlanta, Georgia during the time of the KIA Open Wildcard tournament for the Australian Open. This conference will be appealing for those who would prefer to stay local and get our latest tennis medicine updates, performance sessions, and on court sessions on stroke evaluations of serve and groundstrokes for coaches.
