They had to put the roof on to finish the match between Rosol and Nadal yesterday. I think they did that too in Sharapova and Paszek's match yesterday. It just really changes the game and although I'm just watching it on TV, the changes are pretty discernible. There's the more audible acoustics and then the atmosphere looks caved in as the cheers of the crowd are louder and in a way, what was once an outdoor match becomes a closed indoor match. Well, it's just one of the quirks that the players have to deal with this Wimbledon season.
