Wheelchair tennis at Wimbledon
Watching it now. So impressed by the commitment, strength, and skill on display.
Quite enjoying it.

Caught an interview with Alfie Hewett the other day. Never really considered it before, but he was explaining how playing on grass was so much harder than any other service, due to the friction from the grass on the wheels. Even clay is easier which surprised me.

Is he be considered to be a spokesperson? :getscoat:
Seriously though, I have huge admiration for the competitors as it's such a diffcult task that they make look easy.
