Tournament Recap
Singapore Tennis Open wraps up at Kallang Tennis Hub. The Singapore Tennis Open, upgraded to a WTA 500 event, ran from September 21–27 at Kallang Tennis Hub, with top seed Jessica Pegula leading the field and Elise Mertens having been the defending champion.
Laver Cup aftermath. Following Team World's triumph, captain Andre Agassi couldn't resist a playful jab at Alexander Zverev — whose extraordinary 2026 season earned plenty of praise — jokingly reminding the German of the days when his press conferences sounded like "Why do I always lose?"
Player Spotlight
Zverev's redemption arc, told by his own captain. The Agassi anecdote lands precisely because Zverev's 2026 has been so transformative — the German's season has drawn lavish praise from one of the game's all-time greats, who now speaks about him like a former punching-bag rather than a perennial runner-up.
Coming Up
The season continues its move toward the Asian hard-court swing and the indoor European stretch, culminating in the ATP and WTA Finals in November, with the Laver Cup through the year-end championships comprising what remains of the 2026 calendar. Daily scores and order of play can be followed at BBC Sport.
