The next feature of post-match Slam ceremonies: PLAYER ARMCHAIRS/THRONES

Like petty siblings, each of the four Slams try and outdo each other every year, in order to maintain and enhance their own perceived prestige and reputations. e.g, increased prizemoney, bigger hype and improved tournament organization.

I'm not putting it past the U.S Open organizers that they'll introduce for the 2012 post-match presentation ceremony a pair of comfortable luxury armchairs or royal-style thrones for the two exhausted players to sit in while the speeches are made.

BTW, who actually fetched the chairs for Rafa and Novak at the time? All I saw in the TV footage was umpire Pascal Maria placing one for Nole...did the umpire personally grab the chairs for them?
