Wimbledon mis-hits

WOMEN players at Wimbledon get a ten-minute break if it gets too hot and play the best of three sets. the men play the best of five sets and don’t get a heat break.

Yet the prize money is the same. i am glad to see equality in action.

COULD we have a whip-round to pay for commentator tracy Austin to have her adenoids fixed to cure her irritating nasal twang? NINA KEAY, West Molesey, Surrey.

THE Wimbledon tv coverage is ruined by the inane babbling of some commentators. turning off the volume spoils the natural drama of play. A quiet summary between games would make viewing far more enjoyable.

I’M PLEASED Wimbledon is refusing to show the World Cup on its screens.

tv schedules are inundated with football at the best of times and there’s no escape during the World Cup.

Could the BBC take the hint and not discuss football in its Wimbledon coverage? tennis isn’t mentioned in the hours devoted to talking about football on tv. there is only one beautiful game and it isn’t football.

WILL Henman’s Hill, which became murray’s mount, now be dubbed Edmund’s Empire? or should it be Konta’s Kingdom?

GEORGE KELLY, burgh-le-Marsh, Lincs.

WHY are two tv channels showing nothing but tennis? For me, the best part of Wimbledon coverage is the announcement: rain stops play.
