I think the interactive feature with Tennis with be around a long time. At least I hope it will. It must be popular because they have already used it with several Tournaments and are getting ready to use it again with yet another Tournament :sunsmile:

I only wish that they will soon treat them with the same respect they give coverage of the golf majors and provide the extra matches in HD/SD Widescreen, depending on the source material.
