Is it obvious only to me that we will have much bigger problems like a food crisis?

I don't want to ruin it for you but tennis will be the last of our problems...

Here in Italy we are having one of the most severe drought in years, one of our glacier has just collapsed killing a lot of people and we are thinking about...tennis?


While I’m generally supportive of climate change, I have a tough time understanding why event organizers couldn’t reschedule or relocate major tennis tournaments.

Melbourne and Indian Wells in the Southern California desert are hot with or without climate change. The Vancouver Open is lovely.
