ROLL over Wimbledon. A new tournament is attracting top sponsorship, star spectators and an endorsement from Tiger Tim.
The stick-in-the-muds stuck in the mud of SW19 would have fared better by motoring up to YO61 for the Tollerton tennis spectacular at the weekend.
If Tim Henman had not been detained by a prior engagement, he would probably have done just that. He had to be content with sending a message of support - this year at least.
If anyone now suggests that Wimbledon is the only game in town, Tollerton people have the answer: "You cannot be serious!"
