CENTER COURT: John McEnroe isn’t the only die-hard rock fan on the professional tennis circuit. In the current issue of Tennis magazine, newly crowned French Open champ Jim Courier confides that his fave band is California’s own Toad the Wet Sprocket. “Yeh, it’s the worst name for a good group,” he says. “But you’ve got to hear them.” The band’s latest album, “fear,” is due in July from Columbia Records. . . . The Wonder Stuff’s upcoming album features such new songs as “Caught in My Shadow,” “The Size of the Cow” and “Welcome to the Cheap Seats,” but it’s the album’s title that we love: “Never Loved Elvis.” . . . Speaking of Elvis, Dire Straits’ upcoming album, “On Every Street,” features a new song called “Calling Elvis.”
