From sleeping on motel room floors to barely having money to eat a nutritious meal, these tennis players sacrifice their lives for little in return.
Nikoloz Basilashvili made a net loss of $120,000 in 2024. Daniel Taro moved from Japan to Spain at 14.

With the @USOpen fast approaching, tennis fans are excited to watch the likes of Alcaraz and Sinner back in action.
But what about those outside the top 100, grinding around the world on the @ATPChallenger Tour?
I spoke to them for my latest feature:

Had the pleasure to chat with Africa’s top-ranked men’s tennis player Moez Echargui 🎾
In 2022, he was on the verge of quitting tennis at age 29 before uprooting his life in Tunisia to seek a better training environment in Italy.

A terrific week of 175 tennis in sunny Valencia 🇪🇸 providing non-live and live coverage for the @ATPChallenger social channels!
Big ➕ to be accompanied by the lovely voice of @MikeCTennis on the comms 🗣️

🇪🇸 @copafbvalencia featured the likes of Matteo Berrettini, Pablo Carreno Busta & Roberto Bautista Agut …
but it was eventually Serbian Miomir Kecmanovic who claimed the trophy and a return to the Top 50!

So well deserved for one of the best-run football clubs in non-league. Biggest day in Villa’s history!

Carlos Alcaraz and Jannik Sinner are in a league of their own.
At @uts_tour_ London, I spoke to De Minaur, Rublev, Ruud and Patrick Mouratoglou on what sets them apart & how they compare to the Big 3.

A busy morning updating @SunSport’s live transfer blog with the abrupt news of Ruben Amorim’s sacking.

Was great fun having a go at my first @premierleague live blog for @SunSport.
Wolves finally end their 11-game losing streak, and could easily have won.
Fans will question why Amorim reverted to a 3-4-3 when a back-four worked wonders vs Newcastle.

Casper Ruud is an #F1 and Oscar Piastri fan!
He requested a quick interruption of his media duties at the @uts_tour_ to watch Max Verstappen snatch pole position at the #AbuDhabiGP.
Definitely not what I was expecting today! 🤣
Incredible achievement. Singapore are going to the Asian Cup on merit after three huge away wins.
Full credit to Gavin Lee and the coaching team. They’ve received flak for their left-field decisions, but stuck to the process & philosophy.
Truly a new era for Singapore football.

‘I lost a lot of money because of you!’
@ErvinAngSP delves into the dark and dangerous world of gambling. 👇🏼
claytenis.com/features/tenni…
In my debut piece for @_claymagazine, I wrote about an increasingly-worrying problem faced by tennis athletes; gambling-related abuse.
Had some great interviews with Hong Kong’s new breakout star Coleman Wong, Serbia’s Dusan Lajovic and many more.
