The big revelation for me at Wimbledon this year has been the wheelchair tennis. Good on the BBC for showing so much of it. And huge kudos to Alfie Hewett for his efforts over the weekend. It seemed as if every time I turned on the telly, there he was playing tennis. The final today between him and the Japanese world no.1 Kunieda was insanely good.
It was good to see a new face in the main Men's final, especially an unorthodox one like Nick Kyrgios. When the semi-finals were over, I'm not sure the Wimbledon traditionalists knew who to root for less. Djokovic has never exactly been the most popular player on Centre Court, but Kyrgios is so anti-establishment he causes hives.
Doubles is much more fun to watch than Singles.
I promise to get back to more regular, less Sports-based blogging this week. That's assuming I don't die of heatstroke overnight. Bit warm here in Suffolk.
Hope this all made sense. I'm out of practice, and it's 28 degrees, so I'm struggling.
