The BBC should draw at least two important lessons from this year’s Wimbledon.
One, don’t elevate relative rookies such as Emma Raducanu to world-beating superstar status, because
when they’re getting schooled (in Round 2) by a seasoned pro you’ll have to hastily row back on your fangirling or even do something daft like blame the windy conditions.
Two, don’t shunt BBC1 programmes over to BBC2 just so you can show Andy Murray getting spanked (in Round 2) by a giant American fella whose serves are raining down like greeny-yellow meteorites.
