Tennis

Tennis, our equal national sport with Cricket. Love it, it's 1 of the only sports outside olympic games that actually grips you beit male or female. Love a great Tennis match. I don't own a tv or mobile phone, yet I'll stream the tennis and RL on my rig. I used to watch every Cricket game, I don't know what happened, haven't watched a game in near 10 years. Still love watching the best Tennis players go against each other tho.

Ever since Fed retired, my interest in the sport has gradually declined. When Fed was playing, I'd even watch Masters tournaments as well as the majors....it had me glued. I was very much keen on the sport well before Federer....but my interest in the sport has certainly waned after his retirement. It is still a great sport though, not bagging it in the slightest.

While I watched less tennis, people like Barty, Medvedev and Djokovic kept me watching when they had done well in a major.

Last year, the ONLY tennis I watched was the Australian Open tournament and the Wimbledon final......nothing else.

Im looking forward to the Australian Open though. I hope the Aussies go well. He has his haters but I'd like to see Medvedev win it. For the women, I f**king hope Sabalenka and Switiak don't win it. It would be nice to see Andreeva or Keys go well....neither are in the best form though.

Even though irs only an exhibition doubles match its a joy to see Ash Barty out on the court with Roger Federer.

I miss the great player Steff Graff, I watched her at Wimbledon on centre court. Who will you be rooting for?

I miss Pat Rafters Chip and Charge Game, Leyton Hewitts " Come On" and Marat Safin's unpredictability - could play like the best player in the world and then play like a Saturday morning social tennis player the next - even in the same game/match.

Felt sorry for Marat's sister (Danira Safina) vs Serena Williams in that AO Women's Final - Couldn't serve in that first set - either hit the serve into the net or long and lost in 59 minutes - 6-0 6-3

I miss the days of just wandering down to White City and watching Martina Navratilova, Hana Mandlkova, Wendy Turnbull and a hand full of others play.

Was lucky enough to see Evonne Goolagong play there live in 1982, she played Chris O Neill, didn't realise at the time i was watching two Australian open winners playing each other.

I was present at White City when Rod Laver played there once but i didn't see the game, my mother was pregnant with me when she went to the match.

Over the years i saw more of the women's tournaments there but did some of the men's games there including Mark Edmondson playing in a rain interupted semi final against Kiwi Chris Lewis and then Paul McNamee and Peter McNamara win a three set thriller against John Sadri and Hank Phister in the doubles final the next day.
