Djokovic returned to practice on the tennis court for the first time since he was surprisingly eliminated by 22-year-old Jannik Sinner at the Australian Open in January.

Although he said goodbye without being able to win the first Grand Slam of 2024, Novak will compete in the 2024 Indian Wells tournament to be played from March 6 to 17, according to the schedule published on his website.

Djokovic will seek to win his sixth Indian Wells title in this 2024 edition, after having won it in 2008, 2011, 2014, 2015 and 2016. His last participation in this tournament was in 2019.

The 36-year-old tennis player currently holds 40 ATP Masters titles. The last time Djokovic competed in a Masters tournament was in Paris in 2023, where he took the title by beating Grigor Dimitrov in the final.

Anthony Joshua and Tyson Fury sent same foul-mouthed threat by UFC legend

Nate Diaz has called out Anthony Joshua and Tyson Fury six months after being defeated by Jake Paul in his boxing debut. The long-time UFC fighter swapped sports last summer but lost by unanimous decision after being knocked down in the fifth round.

Diaz, 38, now wants a ‘real fight’ against anyone, including the top two British heavyweights. The Californian is adamant that he would ‘f*** up’ both despite coming in considerably undersized compared to the pair.

He fought Paul at a 185lbs cruiserweight catchweight, standing at 6ft with a 76in reach. In these hypothetical fights, Diaz would give up six and nine inches in height to Joshua and Fury respectively, while weighing between 50 and 90 lbs less.

But the Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu third-degree black belt is undeterred by a lack of size. With two decades of fight experience behind him, Diaz believes he is a match for anyone.

“He cannot hit hard” – Ryan Garcia opens up on the power of Gervonta Davis

Ryan Garcia believes that Gervonta Davis’ power isn’t as big of a deal as claimed.

‘KingRy’ recently signed a deal to return to the boxing ring against Devin Haney on April 20. For Garcia, the fight will be his first since a knockout win over Oscar Duarte in December. That stoppage victory was an incredibly important one for the former interim champion.

Oleksandr Usyk has clause to fight Filip Hrgovic on May 18 if Tyson Fury pulls out again

Oleksandr Usyk has a ‘secret’ part in his fight deal that says he’ll box Filip Hrgovic on May 18 if Tyson Fury pulls out again.

The big fight between Fury and Usyk was meant to happen tonight in Saudi Arabia, but Fury had to stop training two weeks ago because he got a cut while sparring. The match, which will decide the first undisputed heavyweight champ since Lennox Lewis in 1999, was quickly moved to May 18.

If one of them can’t make the new date, they have to pay the other $10million from their fight contract. Usyk also made sure that if Fury doesn’t show up, he will fight the next boxer in line, Hrgovic.

Usyk’s coach Sergey Lapin spoke to Fruity Slots: “I hope Usyk will get the chance to settle the score with Fury on May 18, but if he continues to run, then we have a clause in the agreement to replace Fury with Filip Hrgovic,” and “Hrgovic is the back-up opponent, so the show will go on regardless of whether he shows up, this was also confirmed by His Excellency Turki Al Sheikh.”

Usyk has been ready for Fury since he beat Daniel Dubois last August in Poland. They almost fought on December 23, but after Fury nearly lost to Francis Ngannou last October, he needed more time.

American Legend Name-Drops Roger Federer and Rafael Nadal to Underline Rapid Change in Tennis’ Culture

When it comes to greatness in tennis, Roger Ferderer is a name that would certainly stand out on top. Throughout his years as a professional tennis player, he not only stunned everyone but also brought a unique touch to a game with his one-handed backhand. In an era that was majorly dominated by his rivals Rafael Nadal and Novak Djokovic‘s 2 handed backhands, Federer changed the dynamics of the game.

Reflecting on the same, Jimmy Connors, in a recent podcast came ahead and went down the tennis line while revealing how one-handed backhand players brought more fun and excitement to the game.

In a tennis world that is highly dominated by two-handed backhands, Roger Federer’s one-handed backhand is a mesmerizing nod to tradition. In a recent podcast, Brett Connors came ahead and appreciated its “cool” and “classic” appeal. On the other hand, Jimmy Connors suggested that it was “beautiful to watch.”

“There’s something really pretty about the one hander, you know, like when when, when they just load up and they extend and they’re kind of like, you know, their arms are spread apart and the chest goes out like if in front of their body they put throw everything into it. It’s a it’s kind of cool looking. It feels like kind of like classic like old school, you know what I mean?” said Brett while talking about the unique style that one-handed backhand players brought into the game.

Rafael Nadal makes honest confession about prospect of his son playing tennis

The legendary Spaniard declared he would, though, support his son, Rafa Jr, if he does decide to follow in his footsteps by choosing to play tennis.

In October 2022, Nadal and his wife Mery Perello welcome their first child – a boy they named Rafael Nadal Perello. The Spaniard is known to be a very private person who prefers to enjoy his personal life away from the public eye, and he has rarely been seen in public with his son.

In a recent interview with Hola Spain, Nadal said: “My wife likes that I’m still playing tennis. She likes for us to have that experience with my son.”

“(On becoming a father) It’s a radical change. No doubt about that. I think everyone that’s a father or a mother knows that it’s a change. You have to adapt to it.”

During his TV interview with La Sexta earlier this week, Nadal addressed whether he would like to see his son try to follow his path in the sport when he grows up.

“I would prefer if he plays another sport, if I’m being honest… It pains me to say it with everything that tennis has given me,” the 37-year-old said.

“If he wants to play tennis, I will support him 100 percent. I would never veto his decision to play tennis, but if he plays another sport, even better.”

Tyson Fury is ‘considering renting £10,000-a-month luxury mansion on offshore tax haven’, as the multi-millionaire heavyweight champion prepares for undisputed clash with Oleksandr Usyk

World heavyweight champion Tyson Fury is reportedly eyeing a move to a luxury mansion on an offshore tax haven.

Fury currently lives in his hometown of Morecambe, but is considering a change of scenery and went to view a potential new home before Christmas.

The 34-year-old is interested in renting a place with his wife Paris and their seven children, and went via helicopter to look at a £10,000-a-month mansion last year, according to The Mirror.

The mansion known as Billown Manor is located on the Isle of Man, and has six double ensuite bedrooms, two self-contained two-bedroom flats, a swimming pool, gym and tennis court.

An estate agent’s listing hails Billown Manor as: ‘One of the Isle of Man’s most exclusive period homes. Beautifully appointed, extremely private and set in a manicured parkland and lakeside setting.’

It could also be an attractive prospect for Fury due to the Isle of Man’s generous tax breaks for the super-rich.

Residents do not have to pay wealth taxes, capital gains taxes or estate taxes, and only have to pay 20 per cent for personal income tax.

They can also have their annual tax bill capped at £200,000 if they sign a five or 10-year deal to stay on the island.

However, in order to qualify for residency, they must live on the island for at least six months of the year.

Should Fury pen a long-term deal, he would only be paying a small fraction of his estimated wealth – believed to be around £50m – in taxes.
