Spencer Gore
Legend
Today was an absolute farce. The favourite for the women's title going out because she slipped on the court; the 8 times men's champion going through because his opponent slipped on the court. All most probably because of conditions caused by the closing of the blasted roofs.
What a gong show.
They should never have built any roofs at Wimbledon. The tournament thrived for well over a century as an OUTDOOR daylight hours tennis tournament. Grass courts don't belong indoors and roofs don't belong at Wimbledon. Even if getting rid of them means having to put up with an afternoon of Cliff Richard singing a cappella and a repeat screening of the 1980 tie-break on loop, it's a price worth paying to get the proper tournament back!
Scrap them!
