A head, just above water

RogerAt Wimbledon this year, it felt like we were witnessing Shakespeare at the RSC. I’d initially forgotten how the silence that accompanies each point is quite off putting, you are so used to commentary and chatter - but all you can hear is the sounds of the players feet moving across the grass, scampering from one side to the next. And then the shot. Is probably the best live sport I’ve ever seen.
