The ideal pace for the ATP Tour.

[Break To Win]

Australian Open, Indian Wells, Miami, medium-slow courts.

Clay season, slow paced

Grass season, medium-fast, including Wimbledon

US Series, medium paced

Shanghai to Finals, medium-fast

I don't think anyone would complain about that.

No one has so far, but it's only been 15 minutes.

There are always fans who complain when a surface doesn't favor their favorite.

Really though, it should be exactly how each is now. Ya can't get the genie back in the bottle, or equipment changes back to reduce surface compensation. And the fitness levels of today's players are exponentially stronger so some changes are simply necessitated by that. It can be tweaked and continue to evolve, but ain't no going backwards. I mean, unless you are like the USA and a bunch of old aristocrats are trying to bring back a 1940's broligarchy.
