That’s wonderful. The court is a pool table. The turf is completely different from other tournaments. During the first matches, there is no false rebound, the pitches are perfect. I really loved the tournament. The atmosphere is different. There is no noise, the spectators do not applaud too loudly but as they should. It’s very respectful, a bit sacred.
