Tennis on Grass
This is a wonderfully written article in Britain's Daily Telegraph about why tennis is so awesome -
Wimbledon Final: How We Fell in Love with a Beautiful Game
Federer and Nadal are such class acts. I read recently that Nadal had to drop out of the following tournament in which he was expected to play, so he flew to the tournament director to personally apologize for having to sit it out with an injury.
You don't see much of that character in hockey, where cheating and fighting (often among parents at their kids' games) are considered part of the fabric of the sport. In baseball, pitchers often throw pitches at batters heads. You get the idea.
Tennis, anyone?
