As someone who watched Championships via webcast for the first time this year I think it was a massive improvement from what I've heard about and seen in the past.

However I do think the biggest drawback to the format this year was that the production didn't seem to be intended to be consumed remotely. In most sports there seems to be an experience designed for the people in the arena and a separate production for those watching at home.
For instance, as a home viewer I would have preferred hearing from the two desk anchors much more then the 5 to 6 minutes of crowd footage that we got in between every match.

Having the crew focused on providing a fantastic experience for the people at the event is great, but if we want to grow into a true spectator sport there needs to be a separate production that's just as focused on providing the best experience the vast majority of people at home who couldn't make the trip.

We also need to find people who can eloquently and accurately express the drama and magnitude of something like the Einstein matches to the un-initiated home viewer. Someone who is knowledgeable enough about the teams and the program to know about all of the history and back story that gives those matches such weight. As Don said, that might not be the easiest thing to do but it's certainly possible.
