Tennis Postscript

Amidst all the action today, this video ad was probably the funniest of the lot. I thought I'd also recommend all you tennis fans to get a copy of the 1980 Men's Wimbledon Final between Borg & McEnroe. During the rain delays, BBC kept us busy with reruns of old Wimbledon classics. This match is arguably one of the greatest of all-time, and is particularly famous for its 4th set tie-break. And finally, I just thought I'd let everybody know that it has been 71 years since a Brit last won the men's singles title, and 30 years in the lady's competition. Their only hope in the near future is a Scotsman. Pretty sad, huh? British Tennis, unheard of since 1936.
