    Wimbledon is the last bastion of pump and circumstance. We’ve finally seen the changing of the guard, as technology has forever changed this historic sport.

  2. Do you even watch tennis? Other tournaments have been using this for years without issues. It’s faster and pretty much 100% accurate. Tennis VAR is much different than football VAR, it takes less than 30 seconds and it’s actually entertaining for the audience.

  3. It does go well, though. No idea what that headline is trying to imply, var is MUCH better than humans when properly implemented.
