Very much enjoyed this piece Sam, from one who avidly watched tennis in the days of Australian dominant stars like Rod Laver, Ken Rosewall, John Newcombe and Roy Emerson. I even recall some of these guys touring for exhibition circuit events, one of which was the Dundee Ice Rink on the Kingsway where a particular superstore now stands. I also enjoyed the ‘travelogue’ elements featuring sunny climes! G @ 25
Thanks Genek. It’s always lovely to hear feedback. I had no idea that some of the greats had played in Dundee. I’ve always enjoyed any opportunity I’ve had to see tennis live and hope to get to Wimbledon myself one day, easier now that week one falls in the school holidays.
