Sven's Postcard - Rome and spectators   |

It is my 7th day in Rome and it is amazing how many people are here at the grounds but those who are watching tennis either on tennis channel or on tennistv.com you might wonder why so few spectators are in the stands!

There are different type of tickets being sold for example the center court for the super tennis court (grand stand) and outside courts!

Most of the tickets are sold for the ground pass and it has never been more busy than this year!

Like at the ABN-AMRO ATP TOUR EVENT IN ROTTERDAM they have a show court and yesterday it was full house

This where I believe we need to find a way to get more crowds to the tennis court and not restrict access because there are plenty of people there!

I would like to see more tennis entertainment around the grounds and have the spectator experience tennis at different levels and even give them the chance to play themselves (mini tennis kids tennis or www.touchtennis.com)

On my way back to the city The italian scenery made me laugh a little

Today the rain will challenge the order of play!
