It has a roof down half of the court that can be used as part of the game... never played it. I saw it on sky once and there is a club (the only one i've ever see) in Newcastle

cant be that popular a game, it hasnt been on sky since!

Sampras was poor on clay in a similar vein.

It doesn't make them bad players, just poor on a certain surface.

He still reached a Paris semi final

I saw real tennis on Sky once too - crazy looking game.  Not quite as posh as I imagined - for some reason I expected a really nice court, like a small version of Centre Court at Wimbledon that they used but it was still pretty wierd.

Such a shame, but he is useless on grass.

He is not looking useless today, and the more games he plays on grass the better he will adapt.

If Agassi wins this 1st set, LUMP IT ON Nadal to win the match.

I'm not sure Nadal will ever get better on grass. He reminds me of Lendl - great at tennis, useless on grass.

Lendl reached two Wimbledon finals on grass. Everyone still knows he wasn't that good on it. (Compared to other surfaces)

Nadal said HIMSELF this week that on any other surface he'd be playing some his best tennis yet but as it is grass he has to work very hard.

I think Nadal knows more about his game than us.

So according to that logic, the best person to ask whether you are a good poker player is.....you.
