Watching a tennis match live, comapred to on TV?

How much better is it watching a tennis match live, rather than on your TV?? I would like to know since I will be doing this soon!

Not only have I seen matches in the big stadiums, I’ve had the chance at Indian Wells to watch the pros on the practice court. When they go to the fence to pick up the ball, you are literally inches from them. The highest definition t.v. and the best speakers cannot compare to what you can FEEL when you are up close. Roddicks serve is…wow. It almost went through the fence and hit some guy in the face. Maria Kirilenko and ana ivanovic are even more beautiful in person. the girls do hit hard in person as well. TV does the game no justice once you’ve been there. You will no doubt enjoy. Which tournament are you going to? the practice courts are really great. Also you don’t realize just how big these guys are until you see them in person. Think of it this way. Tennis on tv is just the commercial. What’s better, watching a dairy queen commercial or going to a dairy queen and getting something you can feel, smell, and taste?

someone mentioned you get a better angle on tv? nonsense…I can sit at the same seat where my view is the same as it would be for someone watching it on tv…..way better (unless you’re in the sun)….oh man i watched the country wide classic also and it was a match between denis gremelmeyer from germany and feliciano lopez. During the match there was this guy who kept saying “VAMOS LOPEZ!” and “LET”S GO LOPEZ!” Lopez turned around and told him to shut up and called him stupid while “shhh”ing him….Lopez ended up losing the match and gremelmeyer signed three balls and threw them into the crowd one of which came right to me! i was pretty happy because it made up for the day before when I missed the ball Safin signed by inches!

One thing that is better about watching it on tv? You don’t have to pay 3 dollars for a bottle of water and 9 dollars for a plate of nachos…

Tennis Score $66.91 High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles A tennis match is composed of points, games, and sets. A match is won as soon as a player or doubles pair wins the majority of prescribed sets, or reaches the prescribed total points in a tiebreak (usually extended if the total is reached without a twopoint advantage). Traditionally, a match is the best of three sets (or five for men in a toplevel tournament such as a Grand Slam, Davis Cup, or secondtier final). Doubles matches now commonly consist of two sets and, if required, a Match Tiebreak to ten points (or more as required to win by a twopoint margin). Tennis scoring rests on the premise that serving is advantageous over receiving, hence it is only possible to win a set or match by breaking (winning) the opponents service game at least once, before a tiebreak is required. Likewise, it is not possible to win a tiebreak without winning at least one point during an opponents turn at serve (called a minibreak).
