Than 5000 Tennis Lovers Are Seated to the Ceiling of the Royal Albert
At capacity: More than 5,000 tennis lovers are seated to the ceiling of the Royal Albert Hall Persian prince: Mansour Bahrami Court charmer: Tim Henman SPORT MIND Games The Royal Albert Hall has cleared the stage of musicians and scientists for a tournament of unprecedented sporting spectacle. GEMMA TAYLOR speaks with the stars of this year’s Statoil Masters Tennis to unravel the mysteries of the tennis player psyche THE CENTRAL ATRIUM OF the Royal Albert Hall was originally built by Prince Albert to promote the understanding of cultural concerts and exhibitions and this winter, it’s being transformed into Lapland’s answer to Wimbledon. World champions such as national treasure Tim Henman, the famously volatile seven-time Grand Slam Champion John McEnroe, Pat Cash, Goran Ivanisevic, Carlos Moyá, Mark Philippoussis, Mats Wilander and trick-shot maestro Mansour Bahrami will be among those battling it out at this ofﬁcial ATP Champions Tour ﬁnale. As one of the most intimate and intense tennis courts in the world, only those well-versed in the stresses of the game will survive. First up, representing France in the Paris corner is Henri Leconte. Off-court bad-boy Henri brought a roguish cheekiness to the tennis industry in Dream team: Mark Philippoussis the 80s that he says has now been replaced with steely (left) and Pat Cash professionalism. “What makes this tournament so fun is that you can be a real personality. There’s less pressure and the stakes aren’t so high. Tennis today is harder, faster, and the entourage is huge. I had one coach.

The Grand Slam Tennis Program allows you to see how recent grand slam tennis champions would fair against champions from the past. You can choose from more than 90 former men's grand slam champions and more than 80 former Women's Champions. In addition, you can choose to play the tennis match at the Australian Open, U.S. Open, Wimbledon, or French Open. International tennis matches can also be played, with the option of choosing from many countries around the world. The program is perfect for simulating individual match ups or holding an entire tournament. This is not video graphic game. It is a statistical game based on each former tennis player’s historical success in playing major grand slam singles events. While some players have a higher probability of success, their performance in any particular tournament is still subject to the laws of random probability. For example, a player who has had major success in the French Open is likely to do well in the French Open, but could still lose to a player who has had less historical success in the French Open.
