The new venue is fantastic. Have been each year. My only complaint in the Southern stand and I presume all the stands is that the seating is so close together, but it’s really hard to get past people to get to your seat the addition of handrails up and down the stairs has made a huge difference. It’s just sad that the seating couldn’t be made a bit further apart anybody who is tall is having trouble even fitting their knees in between the seat in the seat below. My other suggestion would be having food trucks just on one side is amazing, but if you happen to sit in the Southern stand and you are right around, pick anybody to walk past, and to get to them is quite a long walk I for one find that too hard . I find it being an older person once I get up into the stand. I don’t go down again manoeuvering the stairs with a lot of younger people is hard, especially in a crowd so even though that you were might like something more in the way of food is manoeuvering to get down to it. That is hard . All staff were amazing and very helpful the ticketing process getting in the gate. Excellent the food trucks were excellent but it would just be nice to have some other choices of food on the other side so that people on that side of the venue could get to them easily , I remember last year there was a lovely area out over by the river on the grass except that wasn’t utilised this time as well but in saying that as a person with a disability it would be so nice and was so nice to have the road open, where my Uber could get right up to the gate and drop me instead of me having to struggle to walk so far to get to the gate as the road was closed last year. I realise we can’t have it all better. You asked for comments I thought the venue was fantastic but once again this year we found the Audio Visual being able to hear what the commentators were saying was incredibly difficult. I wasn’t the only one many people commented that it’s just not clear. It was probably a little better than last year, but that just does need to be improved so that you can actually hear what they’re saying, it’s otherwise very muffled Altogether by the experience was amazing. I love my tennis and now that this event is in Adelaide my desire to get to the Australian Open isn’t quite so great as at my age it’s a little bit more difficult so I’m so pleased to be able to get to see replies that I want to see in Adelaide
Let’s hope you can attract Nadal. I would love to see him play. Once again, thank you to everyone for a fantastic event. Can’t wait for next year.
