US Open Day #2

Hello again everyone! I'm back with a little blog following day #2 of the US Open in Flushing Meadows. I again have a few pics that you can see in this post. I saw a few decent matches today and had a lot of fun seeing a few players for the first time (Bacsinszky, Karlovic, etc) and was most happy to see Alize Cornet in my final match as she progressed to the 3rd round in a match that was very tough as she faced tough Camille Pin who was running after every ball. Alize was actually fortunate to get through in 2 sets.

Small but funny story... as you can see in one photo, Alize was practicing in a top today and I joined in towards the end taking a few shots of her and of Bondarenko sisters (same court). As she was putting her training clothes to get off the court, this guy next to me kept taking shot after shot. She asked him to stop (which he did as he was quite embarassed). Alize then told Camille Pin (who had just arrived) in French that the guy had been there the whole practice taking photos but not when she was hitting the ball... hehe.. I had a laugh... anyway, without further wait, here are some shots:



Olga Govortsova



Flavia Pennetta
