his listless expression before shaking hands. Happy for Lopez who is a great but underrated grasscourt player.

That was a great Final though. A match where both players held match point.

The last such match that I remember was Djokovic-Nadal Madrid SF in 2009. There were a combined 5 match points in that one.

I think you're right, I can't find a headline either. The closest headline for last week's tourneys is about Gerry Weber, not AEGON.

ESPN is all about drama and not real sport covering news, but then again how many real tennis fans are out there?

Plenty, judging by the amount that attend and play.

Maybe there's less that watch. Like @ill, who reads while tennis is on.

I don't. I can't enjoy it that way.

I just wait until I'm free so I can enjoy sports.

Even with TV and surfing the internet, I try to tell myself if I'm getting too distracted by the internet, because I know I'm not really getting into the matches if I am.

AMC has those dual screen experiences for their TV shows, where they want you to watch and interact online. That's not for me. I'd never try it.

The times I get distracted by the internet, are when I try to look up the last time some play, or sequence, or stat happened, and it's relevant to what I'm watching.
