I agree they are a lot easier now with the changes they've made but they are still tough draws (the first 3 rounds of a slam are usually easy for the top seeds). Not sure about the points though. On another subject I cant stand Sam Smith's commentary: she babbles all the time; why use 20 words to say somthing when 200 will do! I have to turn the sound down now when she's on.

I'm with you Shirley - it's almost as though she's trying to show off all her knowledge about the players! Maybe we should all email Sky Sports and complain, though I doubt it would make any difference ... :-( - By Jean August 19, 2009 at 08:44:36 AM
- I intend to email them re SS. I did last week about Dan Lobb calling Peter Fleming 'Pete' on occasioin which he 'Peter' didn't look too pleased about but of course they didn't read that out. I thought Mark P was very dismissive of your question which was a good one! - By Shirley August 19, 2009 at 02:34:46 PM

Jean - I'd like to know a little bit more, like, when was your question heard, and where? Radio? Television? My view is that of course the Masters have been devalued. - By Linda August 18, 2009 at 05:40:20 PM

I emailed Sky Sports and it was read out towards the end of yesterday's coverage from Cincy. Mark Petchey pretty much poo-pooed the suggestion, saying they're still tough to win ... - By Jean August 18, 2009 at 07:56:35 PM
