Re: TKO
Why aren't there more clay courts in the US? I don't really buy the conventional wisdom that clay courts never caught on in the US because they cost more to maintain. I've seen only clay courts in Colombia and Buenos Aires. If Colombia can afford clay courts, the US can too. Anyway, tennis on clay ...

Nadal won’t get past two matches at this rate, he’s not 100% and doesn’t have a lot of matches under his belt. I've watched highlights of some of Rafa's recent matches, and he's not looking good. He looks stiff, slow, and is often found out of position. Unless his draw is really favorable at the Fr...
