I'm actually not a huge tennis fan,
although I do watch tennis games and follow tennis players regularly
as a sports fan.
September 5, I went to the 2005 US Open.
The US Open is in the
National Tennis Center at Flushing, Queens, right by the Shea Stadium for
New York Mets. Unlike other sports games, for tennis, when you buy tickets
in advance, you don't know who's playing whom. But we were pretty
lucky, on the day we chose, it's the game between Mary Pierce and
Justine Henin-Hardenne. Mary has
always been one of my favorite players, and she had an amazing game.
Obviously she has a lot of fans in New York too, mainly males.^_^
Throughout the game, you could hear men shouting out "Go Mary!"
Following the Women's Single game was the Men's Single between Richard Gasquet and
Robby Ginepri.
The sunset and light was just right when
I came out from the subway station, soft and warm. I was lucky to get a few shots
that I like.
