..(And it's quite likely you did miss it), was made "live" on their Twitter page. I say "live", but some readers should be warned that some twitter feeds are delayed. ;)
Seriously though, the biggest (and best) Grand Slam tennis event, publicising it's draw on twitter!? You cannot be serious!? Apparently they are. What we received was a mangled, mis-typed bunch of around 7/8 select matches from the entire men's and women's draw. Hardly professional, or informative.
In previous years we have at least heard the names coming out of the hat on Radio Wimbledon. Even if we were treated to laughable commentary at the same time, this was vastly superior to this year's draw. Surely this should be on TV, if they can show the FA cup draws, then surely Wimbledon, the BBC put such effort into their coverage, this should be a shoe-in.
Does anyone know who "Josh Goofa" is? Or why on earth we were told that Safina could have a potential "showdown" with Vaidisova in the 2nd round? Do they follow tennis?
Importantly, it seems Djokovic and Federer are in the same half, leaving Murray and the potentially injured Nadal in the other. Nadal will announce whether he intends to play today after an exhibition match against Wawrinka.
New balls please!
