Sports events in 2018
Tennis - Australian
Open
The tennis year 2017 was marked by the return to the
foreground of the legendary duo Federer-Nadal. Two grand slams each, five
Masters 1000 out of nine between them, No. 1 (Rafa) and 2 (Rodger) world ... Do
not throw more, the cup is full! A year after their memorable final in
Melbourne (which was also the game of the year), the two grandpas return to
Australia . If Nadal , 31, looks a little worse physically (cursed knee),
Federer, 36, has a beautiful form at the Hopman Cup. Djokovic, Wawrinka, Murray
and Raonic are still convalescent but like fast surfaces like the Australian
Open. If we do not despair of seeing our Musketeers (+ Puglia), boosted by
victory in the Davis Cup, create the sensation, Goffin and Dimitrov seem better
armed than the Blues to afford their first grand slam. For the girls, pending
the return of Marion Bartoli, we put more on Caroline Garcia than on Kristina
Mladenovic, who remains on 13 consecutive defeats.
European women's handball
championships
World
champion in December, the French handball team welcomes the European elite. And
when we say gotha, we do not joke because the best nations of the world in hand
rage on the Old continent: no team outside Europe in the last Top 8 worldwide.
The technique, the solidarity and grinta of the Blue will not be too much to counter,
in particular, Norwegian and Dutch revanchardes (second and third of the last
championships of the world). Only the possibility to hear Denis Balbir instead
of Grégoire Margotton comments (it will be the case for men at the European
Championship in January) brake - much - our enthusiasm.
