Anyone else in favor of a longer grass court tennis season?
I enjoy watching tennis on all surfaces, but find the little patch of fast passed grass tennis refreshing after the long clay court season. I kind of like the drama of watching the seeded favorites come up against a serve-bot like Karlovic and to see who will blink first in the tie breaker. Awkward pickup half volleys, weird bounces on worn out grass, funky footing, low skidding slice, first strike tennis; bring it on. Also, I'd say the attendance and positive fan energy at Halle has been great after seeing all of the empty seats and hissing at the French open.
