I received my ballot for the 2010 inductions to the International Tennis Hall of Fame. Doubles is the theme this year and the nominees are Gigi Fernandez and Natasha Zvereva (as a team), Mark Woodforde and Todd Woodbridge (as a team), and Anders Jarryd (individually).Thu, 12 Nov 2009 18:43:00 ESThttp://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2009/writers/jon_wertheim/09/30/martina.hingis/index.htmlhttp://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2009/writers/jon_wertheim/09/30/martina.hingis/index.htmlWednesday marks Martina Hingis' 29th birthday. It also marks the final day of her two-year drug suspension from the International Tennis Federation.Wed, 30 Sep 2009 16:27:00 EDThttp://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2009/writers/jon_wertheim/07/16/gasquet/index.htmlhttp://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2009/writers/jon_wertheim/07/16/gasquet/index.htmlWhile the 16 remaining players in the men's draw competed at Wimbledon on June 29, Richard Gasquet was a few miles from the All England Club, fighting for his career at a tribunal hearing. Three months earlier, the French player had tested positive for cocaine, triggering a two-year ban under the World Anti-Doping Agency code. In a sport with no guaranteed contracts and a short career shelf life, this was, potentially, akin to a professional death sentence.Thu, 16 Jul 2009 20:42:00 EDThttp://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2009/writers/jon_wertheim/01/25/australian.open.midterm.grades/index.htmlhttp://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2009/writers/jon_wertheim/01/25/australian.open.midterm.grades/index.htmlAfter a week of play, the 2009 Australian Open has reinforced what most already thought to be the case in tennis: the men's game is gripping on account of the consistently excellent performances of the top players. The women's game is gripping because of the inconsistency at the top, and the wide open fields it creates. Herewith our midterm grades.Mon, 26 Jan 2009 06:01:00 ESThttp://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2008/writers/jon_wertheim/10/22/10.22/index.htmlhttp://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2008/writers/jon_wertheim/10/22/10.22/index.htmlSo, somewhat inebriated conversation with a friend: "Top 5 All Time On-Court Headcases (Men), Sans McEnroe." In no particular order, and somewhat relegated to our generational recollection: Nastase, Youzhny, Slobodan Zivojinovic, Ivanisevic, Safin (others in consideration --Gasquet, Noah). Is it just us, or is there really an European slant to this? Who'd we miss? -- Anirban Mukherjee, Durham, N.C.Wed, 22 Oct 2008 17:48:00 EDThttp://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2008/writers/jon_wertheim/08/31/us.open.midterm.grades/index.htmlhttp://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2008/writers/jon_wertheim/08/31/us.open.midterm.grades/index.htmlHeaded into final week of the final Grand Slam, here are out midterm grades:Mon, 01 Sep 2008 19:22:00 EDThttp://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2008/writers/jon_wertheim/07/06/wimbledon.50.things/index.htmlhttp://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2008/writers/jon_wertheim/07/06/wimbledon.50.things/index.htmlCleaning out the Wimbledon notebook while still in awe of that final.Tue, 08 Jul 2008 20:22:00 EDThttp://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2008/writers/jon_wertheim/04/30/mailnag/index.htmlhttp://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2008/writers/jon_wertheim/04/30/mailnag/index.htmlI don't know why the online tennis media seemed to ignore a 20-year-old American beating a former French Open Champion and No. 14 in the world -- on clay. It just happened Monday. Sam Querrey defeated Carlos Moyà 6-3, 1-6, 6-3. What is there not to like about Querrey? Does his unassuming manner not make for good headlines? -- Chris, Menlo Park, Calif.Wed, 30 Apr 2008 15:54:00 EDThttp://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2007/writers/jon_wertheim/09/02/us.open/index.htmlhttp://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2007/writers/jon_wertheim/09/02/us.open/index.htmlIs John Isner good for tennis? I remember when Mark Philippoussis came around and he had the huge serve but he also had bombs on his forehand. Isner, in my opinion, only has a serve. If you look at his last 10 matches or so, there are a lot of sets that were won at 7-6 indicating that this guy can only hold serve and that is it. What are your thoughts on the rest of his game? -- Mark, Ottawa Sun, 02 Sep 2007 10:44:00 EDThttp://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2007/writers/jon_wertheim/07/25/mailbag/index.htmlhttp://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2007/writers/jon_wertheim/07/25/mailbag/index.htmlOK, so after Roger Federer and Rafael Nadal, who are your next five best men's players? -- Daniel, Los AngelesWed, 25 Jul 2007 03:25:00 EDThttp://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2007/writers/jon_wertheim/07/06/five.things/index.htmlhttp://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2007/writers/jon_wertheim/07/06/five.things/index.htmlWIMBLEDON, England -- Five things we learned during a memorable day of tennis on Friday:Fri, 06 Jul 2007 08:16:00 EDT
