Ah, that's a shame. I was asking both out of interest in your experience as well as with an eye on perhaps going to Queens either next year or the year after. I've found it very hard finding decent leg space for my 1.96 metre high, not supermodel-thin body :lol: :oops: at other sporting venues. Roland Garros was an absolute nightmare in Court Philippe Chatrier; I didn't realize I'd be seated right in front of a knee-and-bit-high wall which left me wanting at least 30 centimetres of space when buying the ticket and had to leave the Li - Sharapova match because of it.

However... If you're taller than me...? ;)
Hell is other people, particularly your neighbours.

No, I am much shorter! I was pretty cramped and then having to stand up to let latecomers go by...

The doubles finals was very good, though..Fritz was impressive..great serve..made some crucial mistakes at the net..clearly inexperienced at doubles..Communication with Khachanov was poor, naturally, first time together I think...the doubles specialists won, as they should...both Venus and Skupski were awesome..Venus put away balls really well at the net, and Skupski's ability to change direction when moving at the net, was breath-taking...his movement on grass in general...
