If you think that height doesn’t matter in tennis, you can have a sort of answer in Paris. The average height of the 4 semifinalists is an astonishing 1.98 meters or 6′ 6″.

In fact, John Isner (2.08 m or 6′ 10″) will face Marin Cilic ( 1.98m or 6′ 6″) in the first semifinal. In the other part of the draw, Andy Murray (1.90 m or 6′ 3 ″) will face Milos Raonic (1.96 m or 6′ 3 ″).

Yes, height matters.
