A Glitch in the Action

I'm not talking about an injury timeout, people.

Somehow, despite its high traffic and surplus of information, Tennis.com still struggles to keep glitches and freezing away from its website during big tournaments.

Today marks the first day of the WTA Year-end Championship where the eight top ranked women are duking it out for tennis supremacy, and sure enough... Tennis.com is having some trouble.

No matter what computer I access the site from, the home page loads slowly, the Championship "drop-down bar" is blurry and don't even get me started on the Live Scores page...

Actually, let me get started. The one thing I care about most is staying up to date on scores and results, and Tennis.com refuses to admit defeat against partner sites whose live scoreboards run smooth and fast. Tennis.com, instead, tries to advertise its own scores page as much as possible—a white mess of text that refreshes every two minutes and scrolls away from what you were looking at. Not to mention, the ball (now a blob in recent site updates) which indicates who is serving never moves after the first person... What?

So, be wary of where you go if you're surfing the web for your tennis updates. Tennis.com is sure to have what you're looking for, but don't expect to get it as quickly as you'd like.
