Shoudl there be one tournament on the tennis calendar which features the top players in the world and an FA Cup-style draw. I use the example of the FA Cup because I'm English. Basically, the FA Cup is a football(soccer) tournament in which all the teams in England take part, but there are no seeded teams, so anyone can play anyone at any stage of the competition. So a blind draw:
a) Do you think players would be up for it?
b) Would you, as fans, want to see it? Imagine seeing Federer-Nadal in the first round
