Description

As Wimbledon plans to add 39 more courts and 8,000 more annual visitors, residents of the surrounding London hamlet sue to prevent the tournament's expansion. How do we balance the needs of a world famous sporting event with long time residents' needs? And what to do with recent transplants who both love the tournament and also want it to always stay exactly as it is today? (We ignore them.)


Also:

  • ESPN coverage of Wimbledon seems stale
  • John McEnroe won't bother pronouncing anyone's name correctly
  • Stefanos Tsitsipas and Paula Badosa break up
  • Tsitsipas' coach tells the media Tsitsipas needs to get his shit together
  • Grigor Dmitrov's tragic injury retirement against Sinner ☹️
