Hamm requests indoors court
In a calculated attempt to throw Bennett off his stride, Hamm has today made a fomal request to the Umpire to play The Hamm Bennett 2007 on an indoors court. Hamm is reportedly concerned at possible inclement weather in late September when the match is scheduled to take place. The Umpire has fourteen days to respond to Hamm's request.
Asked to comment, Bennett said "Hamm has started his mind games already which is pretty early even by his standards. The Hamm Bennett has traditionally been played without cover and there is no reason why because Hamm has gone to Germany he should introduce continental ways into our game. I trust the Umpire will rule accordingly."
