2013 US Open day 2
The 17 years old Victoria Duval made our day. When we got to Louis Armstrong stadium, half the crowd was cheering for 2011 champ Sam Stosur. The girl soon lost the first set. As the match progressed more Sam fan became Vicky fan. By the end, the whole stadium was rocking and got behind her. In third set, she closed out the match on her fourth deuce, here is her winning forehand that sealed her victory. Her match point.

Where have I been? According to Hanna, Tommy boy is very popular with women. I had no idea. But I soon found out Hanna was right. Four Aussie ladies behind me yelled their hearts out for him. More pix of Haas and Monfils on FB
Tommy Haas
The Romanian player Ungur has awesome single hand backhand (here the flash player is needed on this link) but he was no match for the goofy Monfils. The gofer had no time to goofy around because the match was over quickly.
Adrian Ungur 8/27
Michael Tirico with Mary Jo Fernandez left the stadium as we were leaving too. Mike is shorter than Mary Jo.
but he was no match for the goofy Monfils. The gofer had no time to goofy around because the match was over quickly.
