Really enjoyed watching Connors' return of service against a guy rushing net--with the old Wilson T-2000!!!!. It was pleasing tennis to the eye--at least this old eye. The tennis of that time seemed to use more of the court and guys were at net a lot more than now. Things change, but it is good to see the great Jimmy Connors and his magnificent service return ... and I had forgotten how much he used to rush the net on his service. He ventured there quite a bit.
