I love the aggressive microphone placement and mix these days on court. I totally feel involved in the match when I can hear the exchanges between the players and the umpire and the trainers CLEARLY.

There was a time when they removed these microphones and it sucked.

You had to rely on the idiot talking heads who most of the time had no clue.

And even when there is a foreign language spoken, the guys in the TC booth get instant translations.

Anybody else dig it?

I like it a lot. Also, because we don't have to be beholden to commentator interpretations.

Yes,that is a huge part of it. Most of those blabber mouths are to busy yapping to have any idea.

I love hearing real time explanations of calls, replays, lets, and challenges.

Yeah, it's good, and makes a tennis match much more investing.

Agreed, makes you feel more present.
