It is that time of the year again. Tennis, strawberries and great excitement. I wonder whom I would like to win the men and the womens titles at Roland Garros? I think Kuerton though of course I love Andre Agassi. I cannot decide on my women's favourite although I would like to see Jennifer Capriati win again. She has overcome so many difficulties and problems in her life she is an example to us all. But then I also like both the Williams girls. The players have to be SO fit. I was sad to see Anna Kournikova taking that nasty spill But even more disappointed in the commentators obvservations. Had I had the energy I would have gone striaght to my computer and written a reply to their comments. But they will still continue with their often unkind observations. That is why I like John McInroe so much. He really is so fair and understanding about a player's mistakes( and great play) No-one plays in top class tennis without trying their best, and if they are not on form it must be really dreadful for them to be playing below their best in front of so many people.
Anyway, I am enjoying it all and hope others are as well. Incidentally I loved the aerial views of Roland Garros yesterday. It really seems to be a magnificent tennis complex. They also have the wonderful Stade de France where they play rugby. I wonder if the designers are architects specialising in sports arenas?
