As always, tennis now pursues its annual trans-channel migration to the land of grass tennis—ye fair olde Englande.
Wimbledon awaits in just over a week, while this week, all tennis players involved are anxiously racking up ranking points and confidence in preparation for this greatest of grand slams.
Queen's in London is already underway, and we have had our fair share of shockers—grass is a more relenting, but at the same time surprising surface. In Germany, the Halle Gerry Weber Open has been giving the continental folks something to admire.
Bigger questions lie ahead and hidden are the subtexts to the humble openings of this year's grass season. Will Nadal win a third title? Or Federer, a record-equalling seventh? Will the Williams sisters really be back?
These and more, but for the now, the viewing pleasure of all, from London and Halle.
