Legend Joined: Aug 2001 Posts: 30770 Location: Ontario	#1 Posted: 9/8/2012 12:35:07 PM For the love of God...Build a court with a roof. It doesn't have to be Ashe although that would be preferred. Change the schedule from Super Saturday, Sunday finish. Between the ridiculous scheduling, rain, wind, you almost never get a final weekend where the Tennis is the only story. Always some other factor which usually creates mediocre tennis on Saturday and more times then not a mediocre final. Thanks.

Legend Joined: Aug 2001 Posts: 30770 Location: Ontario	#8 Posted: 9/8/2012 12:57:25 PM Hats blowing off and costing breaks of serve. This is a friggin circus. Murray is an idiot for agreeing to replay the point. Classy, but stupid. No way Berdych was getting to that ball hat or no hat.

Weather for Sunday looked great, should have just moved it to Super Sunday with Monday final. Djokovic must also be pissed. Shameful.
