Nice!!!! I love it! But I actually think the timing is wrong. It should be implemented in the offseason so players have time to adjust.

Thank you. CNN never covers tennis except for major finals. In the last 2 or 3 weeks, I've seen THREE different pieces about this, and I haven't even been paying close attention.

This has nothing to do with the fans or the sport. This is personal. Period. Since when did people start giving a rat's ass about what Martina Navratilova has to say?

And there's a precedent here... The British tabloid media tried years ago to shut Seles up before the Wimbledon final... And that resulted in (arguably) one of the worst women's major finals in history. But I bet the fans loved it... After all, it was much quieter, right?
