The Wimbledon draw is out and it's a lot, in the best way. We react to Serena Williams' return, the round one shock of Jack Draper vs Taylor Fritz, and the storylines pulling casual fans back to tennis at exactly the right time.
Then we get practical. We break down the Queue (a £33 ground pass and why we'd treat the wait like brunch), the ever-shifting way to watch Wimbledon in the US, and the real Wimbledon grass court that just landed in Central Park. Plus Ethan Quinn's glow-up from Clay Dog to Grasshopper, and Tatiana Maria's case as the Queen of Grass.
Whether you're new to tennis or you've been here for years, consider this your friendly walk through the door.
