Well, worth seeing what us tennis fans know about football. As an aside, Gareth Southgate owns a house nearby to where I live in Harrogate - a massive manor house near to Fewston Reservoir. I have seen him in two restuarants locally, the Italian Connection on Cold Bath Road , and Al Bivio on Hornbeam Pa...

What do people think of the new timing rules and stop clock? There will be a visible 25 second stop clock for player's serving time. It seems like there has still got be some umpire discretion on when this clock starts (I mean we've seen it when there's been a great rally, the crowd won't calm down), for...
