Tennis — Grand Slams, ATP and WTA tours

Tennis follows a global calendar but peaks at four Slams, each with its own personality. The US Open brings New York noise and night sessions, Wimbledon keeps grass-court tradition, Roland Garros tests clay-court patience, Melbourne kicks off the year in summer heat. The post-Big-Three era has opened the field: Alcaraz, Sinner, Djokovic's twilight, Swiatek and Sabalenka's rivalry — the tours have never been more unpredictable. Serve mechanics, return positioning and surface-specific tactics separate good players from great ones. American tennis keeps producing new names while British fans still wait for the next Murray. Wimbledon tradition lives in its own section.
