“Middle Sunday”
I’ve been watching TV coverage of The Championships: Wimbledon for as long as I can remember, and this is the first time I’ve heard this term used to describe today’s pause in play.
In case you’re not a tennis fan, Wimbledon runs for 13 days — Monday through Sunday — and traditionally does not schedule any matches on the first Sunday. Today.
I hate Middle Sunday.
After a full week of great tennis, I’m totally spoiled. In fact, I’m having Wimbledon withdrawal. It almost makes me wish it had rained a bit more this week, because in the past, they have had to play tennis on Middle Sunday to make up matches.
Of course, they don’t call it Middle Sunday then. No, the day has to have a new name —
“People’s Sunday”
Yeah…I would like that way better.
