Its this time of year again where I am going sleepless. 17 hour time difference really messes up everything with this Grand Slam.
Coverage starts today at 5:30 pm eastern time on ESPN 2 in the US. And also on ESPN Go. I had to set the dolphin browser up on my Fire HD so I can watch the other courts.
So matches start at 6pm for morning matches and 2 am
for the evening matches. Yikes.
I remember one match, I think it was Hewitt or Bagdatis. I fell asleep in the middle of the night and they were still playing when I woke up.
. I think they played until 4 am local time.
I used to watch tennis in Germany with my mother all the time. I don't know what was worst, starting the morning matches at 6 pm in the US and having the evening matches then in the middle of the night, or as in Germany the morning matches started at 1 am and then we could watch the evening matches in the morning. I think that was better as many of the real interesting matches happen in the evening.
The older I get, the harder it is for me to stay up.
Am I the only Tennis freak here on Kindleboards?
