This review may or may not be more technically orientated than the audience for this writer’s work is used to. That said its fandom for tennis as a sport will very much colour his opinion on the splashy Netflix flies-on-the-wall offering loosely following several desperate stories from across the 2022 season. So let’s discuss.
When the ATP, WTA and grand slams announced at the start of 2022 they…

VENDREDI 25 AOÛT 2023 (Billet 3/3)
« PICKLEBALL » : TOUT SAVOIR SUR CE NOUVEAU SPORT DE RAQUETTE QUI FAIT FUREUR AUX ÉTATS-UNIS
Sport de raquette qui monte en puissance aux États-Unis, le « pickleball » est en train de traverser les frontières. Praticable avec peu de matériel, le « pickleball » fait de plus en plus d'adeptes.
Une raquette, une balle, un filet et un terrain. Voici les éléments nécessaires pour pouvoir débuter une partie de « pickleball ». Ce sport de raquette à mi-chemin entre le tennis, le padel et le tennis de table fait fureur aux États-Unis. Popularisé par les réseaux sociaux, le « pickleball » a séduit de nombreuses personnes outre-Atlantique par sa simplicité. Comme l’explique le New York Times dans un article relayé par Courrier International, ce sport se pratique à l’aide d’une raquette légère, sur un terrain plus petit que celui d’un terrain de tennis : 6,1m de large pour 13,41m de long, ainsi qu'un filet atteignant 86 centimètres de haut.
Malgré la surface de terrain réduite, le « pickleball » permettrait aux picklers, surnom des adeptes de ce sport, de se dépenser efficacement : d’après les chiffres relevés par le média américain, la moitié des joueurs en 2021 avaient plus de 55 ans.
Ce sport de raquette, qui pourrait être vu comme un sport de raquette d’été, a même bénéficié d’une mise en lumière à la télévision, avec des rencontres mettant en avant des légendes du tennis comme John McEnroe, Andy Roddick ou Andre Agassi.
Seul défaut de ce sport de raquette : le bruit. Selon l'ingénieur Bob Unetich, le bruit des balles perforées en plastique peut atteindre jusqu’à 70 décibels.

Unlikely Tennis Major Winners and Finalists
At the professional level, the sport of tennis consists of four major tournaments, sometimes referred to as Grand Slams: the Australian Open, the French Open, Wimbledon, and the US Open. While these tournaments have predominantly been won by the sport’s most accomplished competitors, a number of lesser-known, lower-ranked players have had considerable success at major events.
Tennis tournaments are single elimination events. The singles draws at major events consist of 128 players, with 32 players being seeded so that higher-ranked players do not meet until the later rounds. Despite this arrangement, a number of unseeded players have advanced to major finals.
On the men’s tour, Mark Edmondson holds the record for lowest ranked player to reach a major final. He was ranked No. 212 in the world entering the 1976 Australian Open and eliminated the No. 5, No. 12, and No. 13 seeds in succession to reach the semifinals. Edmondson achieved one of the greatest upsets in grand slam tennis history when he eliminated Australian legend Ken Rosewall, the top seed at the event and a winner of eight major championships. Edmondson won in four sets, then eliminated No. 2 seed John Newcombe to become the lowest ranked major winner of all time.
Just two years later, No. 177 John Marks received a walkover against No. 2 seed Jose Luis Clerc at the Australian Open. Marks essentially assumed Clerc’s position in the tournament, advancing to the finals with wins over seeded players such as John Alexander and Arthur Ashe, the latter in five tight sets. However, Marks fell short of another Cinderella run, losing in the final to Guillermo Vilas.
In 2001, Goran Ivanisevic enjoyed one of the most memorable Wimbledon runs in tennis history. The big server had often tangled with Pete Sampras on the lawns of the All England Club in southwest London, losing in three Wimbledon finals. He entered the 2001 event as a wildcard ranked No. 125 in the world. The Croatian eliminated a slew of young talent, including Carlos Moya and Andy Roddick, before eliminating home favorite Tim Henman in a five set semifinal. Ivanisevic capped off his campaign with a marathon five set victory over Patrick Rafter, completing the fairytale run.
Gustavo Kuerten, ranked No. 66 in the world, won Roland-Garros on his second attempt, in just his third major tournament. The grand slam victory, which included wins over Thomas Muster and Yevgeny Kafelnikov, was his first tournament win.
While impressive, few players on the men’s tour can stand up to the unlikely run of Emma Raducanu at the 2021 US Open. The 18 year old, ranked No. 150 in the world, had to play three matches in a qualifying tournament to enter the main draw, which she did without dropping a set. She went on to win the major, also without dropping a set, to become the only qualifier on either the men’s or women’s tour to win a major. Her opponent, fellow teenager Leylah Fernandez, was ranked No. 73 in the world.
The only lower ranked woman to reach a major final is Kim Clijsters, who played in the 2009 US Open as an unranked player. The Belgian initially retired from tennis in 2007, then began her professional comeback a few weeks prior to the US Open. She received a wildcard for the event, ultimately defeating Venus and Serena Williams, Li Na, Marion Bartoli, and No. 9 seed Caroline Wozniacki to win the event for the second time in her career.

"1" (Ones are conscientious and ethical, with a strong sense of right and wrong. They are teachers, crusaders, and advocates for change: always striving to improve things, but afraid of making a mistake. Well-organized, orderly, and fastidious, they try to maintain high standards, but can slip into being critical and perfectionistic. They typically have problems with resentment and impatience. At their Best: wise, discerning, realistic, and noble. Can be morally heroic. Basic Fear: Of being corrupt/evil, defective Basic Desire: To be good, to have integrity, to be balanced Enneagram One with a Nine-Wing: "The Idealist" Enneagram One with a Two-Wing: "The Advocate" Key Motivations: Want to be right, to strive higher and improve everything, to be consistent with their ideals, to justify themselves, to be beyond criticism so as not to be condemned by anyone. The Meaning of the Arrows (in brief) When moving in their Direction of Disintegration (stress), methodical Ones suddenly become moody and irrational at Four. However, when moving in their Direction of Integration (growth), angry, critical Ones become more spontaneous and joyful, like healthy Sevens. Learn more about the arrows.

The Saint: The Covetous Headsman (1.4, ITC, 1962)
"Inspector Quercy, how nice to see you."
"Ah, Monsieur Templar, how very nice to see you - provided you have come to France only as a tourist."
"Now what does that mean?"
"That means that there are servants of the Republic, of whom I am one, whose job is to concern themselves with crime. We do not allow private individuals to take over the duties of the police."
#the saint#the covetous headsman#leslie charteris#itc#John Roddick#Michael Truman#roger moore#barbara shelley#eugene deckers#george pastell#esmond knight#carole gray#robert cawdron#josephine brown#michael spear#andre boulay#natalie benesh#barbara roscoe#peter brace#1962#ah what a cast! personal fave George Pastell (made up to be playing older than his actual age)‚ good old Esmond Knight and of course the#ever lovely Barbara Shelley; Simon meets Babs on the plane to Paris where she's meeting her long lost brother. she pulls out a picture to#show him and it's of stuntman and background player Peter Brace‚ so immediately this bodes not well. indeed Brace doesn't actually get any#real screen time that isn't below a sheet on a marble slab. to find the villain Simon must piece together a mystery dating back to ww2; in#the process we learn he fought with the resistance (making ST at the very least in his late 30s here‚ a little older than Moore himself).#the wartime hangover was a fairly common trope in early ITC stuff (see also eps of Interpol Calling and Ghost Squad) and tho it became less#used it still popped up in later shows like Strange Report and The Zoo Gang. Simon seems to be at peace with allowing the execution of a#wartime collaborator‚ fitting in with that darker energy i mentioned last time which is more in the spirit of the books (and which im#fairly certain gets watered down over time). Simon begins the ep being awful about a complaining lady on his plane but later he's much more#charming to an elderly landlady (deliberately shown to be at odds with the way the police talk to her). no location work in Gay Paris tho
