Today is the day with the biggest (tele)visual contrast in tennis. From the bright orange expanse of Philippe Chatrier and the physical grind of clay court tennis, to the compact club environment of Queens, with it's lush green lawns and (relatively) short sharp points.

Tennis has become quite homogenised - and grass court tennis is not immune to this - but for this limited period in the year there is a particular sense of something fresh, something a little different.

My enthusiasm might even last through Kevin Anderson vs Ivo Karlovic
