I was just thinking how hard it must have been to be a tennis fan in the 90s. There was only one TSN channel so you probably didn't get all the Master events and probably not the 500 tournaments on TV. Plus with the internet you can watch basically any match you want. You also had no way to check a score unless it was printed in a newspaper the next day. I think part of the rise in popularity of tennis has to do with technology. Now it's super easy to see if Rune won a match at the Moselle Open and you could watch it or follow along every point, when in the past you probably couldn't even see if Pete or Andre won a big match until the next day.
