Wham bam...

For want of anything better, last Sunday found me watching the men's final in what was billed as the French Open Tennis Tournament - except this wasn't proper tennis - where was the grass? The full name of the game is lawn tennis for heaven's sake! This bastardisation of playing on clay or other non-grass surfaces tears the heart out of the game - there's no finesse, it just becomes a slugfest. Roll on Wimbledon, and let's see the game as it is meant to be played, with artistry and flair.
