The International Tennis Federation (ITF) Board of Directors has unanimously endorsed a package of comprehensive reforms for the Davis Cup and Fed Cup competitions. 

The uncertainty over Durban's ability to stage the Commonwealth Games in 2022 will bring back unhappy memories.

Yesterday marked One Year to Go until the start of the Winter Paralympic Games in PyeongChang, where I have just spent the week at the Chef de Mission Seminar.
