I know it's just an exhibition at the Aussie Open but still this is alarming!<br /><br />"(The exhibition) showcased the Australian-developed Fast4, which features major rule variations to speed up the action for players and fans -- no advantage scoring, lets are played, and the first to win four games wins the set." <br /><br />First the colleges and now this. Why are they're tinkering the sport? There's a malevolence in the air and if we don't stop it, tennis will be ruined, I say, ruined. Rise up Zoo commentators, make your outrage heard. Gosh, I wish we could go back to the days when there weren't any set tiebreaks and sets would last until the teens. Now that was a manly era.<br /><br /><br />http://espn.go.com/tennis/story/_/id/12165138/rafael-nadal-tries-hand-some-disco-tennisrussnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10016685.post-17587179041041075502015-01-14T00:01:01.383-05:002015-01-14T00:01:01.383-05:00Anyone wanting to go pro doesn't want to play ...Anyone wanting to go pro doesn't want to play no ad tennis in college, that's the problem.No ad for fallnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10016685.post-65902466431773770752015-01-13T23:59:53.633-05:002015-01-13T23:59:53.633-05:00Every year the foreign % increases in college tenn...Every year the foreign % increases in college tennis.<br />At what point does anyone in the tennis world realize that American parents will not fund this sport any longer?Shaunnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10016685.post-33966088905185882015-01-13T22:50:28.172-05:002015-01-13T22:50:28.172-05:00Seems like I upset a couple of Mitch Krueger fans ...Seems like I upset a couple of Mitch Krueger fans by simply wondering if Jason Jung might have been worn out by his three set semi win while Mitchell, on the other hand, had a fairly routine win over Kutrovsky. Given that they played the final shortly after Jung completed his semi (probably an hour), I thought it was a pretty innocuous and reasonable query that may, or may not, have played a role in the lopsided score. I guess I was mistaken.
