World Tour Finals and ParisMS1000 for the courts being fast.
Australian Open....because everyone is fresh and not match prepared....thus unpredictable 5 setters along with high level play from the top 10.

Indian Wells. I feel like the players' excitement over the tournament is palpable. Plus the top guys usually play doubles, which is nice to see.

I'd have to say Wimbledon because that's what I grew up watching. That was the sum total of tennis on TV all year and everyone watched it. My earliest tennis memories are of McEnroe, Connors, Borg and Navratalova and Evert Lloyd (what a crush I had) frolicking on the lawns of the all England club. My obsession was born and nostalgia has only made the memories sweeter.

+1 on Indian Wells. The players are so accessible there. The practice courts are so close and the weather is perfect that time of the year.

Australian Open and US Open. Hardcourts are for the most versatile players. Ones that don't adapt well are not versatile.

Aus Open. Live 20 mins from Melbourne Park so that goes without saying.

To visit: 's Hertogenbosch because it's close to where I live and it's grass!
To watch: Wimbledon/US Open

Any tournament Federer wins is fine with me.
But I really like Cincy the Real Slam

I like all grass tournaments, WTF (gladiator fights), USO (video quality), Indian Wells (California), Cincy (court speed).
I hate Miami, all red clay, Canada, Dubai/Qatar, Shanghai, Bercy. |

Wimbledon for obvious reasons.
Rotterdam, because it's here and pretty fast. WTF, Cincy, Paris for being at least decent speed AO for its atmosphere, the intensity of a new year with much hope and expectation, plus the time difference. I love waking up at night and watching into the day. |
