I have seen a lot of MJ so far...I can't believe she hasn't called a women's match. I've see Chandra scarcely, and only remember her in the pre-post matches.

Mary Jo might have been a co commentator,though if you are with say Chrissy and Stubs they seem to take control

Jason Goodall is now in the studio with Chris McKendary who I cannot stand lol!
I do not understand why Chris McKendry is basically the mistress of ceremonies at the USO every year. How'd she get that job?

Chris is OK. She's not really a tennis commentator or a former player, but more of a newscaster for the ABC family of networks, like Chris Fowler is from the college basketball world.

See my post above...
And Chris Fowler does tennis, as well. I get the point of the sports journalist who wrangles the whole thing, but I have no idea who McKendry is, beyond this.

I disagree. They have lovely voices...that's why they're big-time tv journalists. Their job is to help the real commentators move things along. Like an on-camera producer. They're not there to be interesting. I get that.

Yeah Cahill and Jason are good together. I actually liked it when Moratouglu did some matches, but it looks like Serena put a cap on that.

Margaret, you are in danger of playing into cliches about women and the pitch of there voice. It's not high pitched. I find it rather velvety.

Cahill and Jason are the A-team, for sure.
