There are prettier courts at Roland Garros, including the curved stands of the Court Suzanne-Lenglen which dislodged the Bullring as Roland Garros's second-biggest showcourt. "It's so much smaller, more intimate," said American tennis fan Stefan Henryson, waiting in line to enter the court with his wife and two daughters. For its swansong tournament, the Bullring is open to holders of tickets for the outside courts. SPECTATORS' LAWNIn short, it is a court for the real tennis fan. Yet it is time for the 3,800-seat Bullring to make way for a spectators' lawn, not unlike Wimbledon's Henman Hill, as the French Tennis Federation reinvents the compact layout of Roland Garros.
