i dont get the tennis. why is it that they dont get to use hawkeye on the lesser courts? its a bit like saying that we'll use goal-line technology but only at old trafford and stamford bridge. travesty!

 

[Dick Knights Mumm]

Good point. I'll start one.

Done.

Great one for the statos, but what does this actually show ? Tall blokes with big modern rackets can serve fast and accurately and no I didn't watch it as I was at the cricket, watching blokes with big modern bats smash a cricket ball miles!

because the players demand so much in prize money they cannot afford the technology on 20 courts

Amusing live blog from the guardian yesterday suggesting the players were replaced with zombie counterparts...

Tennis you say?

BORING.

Sport often makes me feel like I'm a bit too lazy, as I sit there, barely moving, watching guys charge around for hours in the heat, but last night I reached a new low watching this game.

It got to 8pm, they had been playing for 6 hours solid, while I hadn't turned over to the Germany game for the last 30 mins because I couldn't see where the remote was. I'd ruled out both looking for the remote and walking the 6 feet to the tellybox to switch 1 channel.

I walked on centre court, that is all

63-63...

Decided to watch this, just to see how utterly (more) ridiculous it gets.

I reckon it's a stitch-up, they've cooked this up between them.
