BNP Paribas Open. We are looking over the order of play. What a day. What a night. Main stadium tonight is almost hard to believe. Ready…Drum roll. Rafael Nadal “Rafa” plays Somdev Devvarman. You say what? Who? Trust me unless “Sommy” gets nervous in the big stadium it’s gonna be a battle …
Second evening match…, another drum roll please. Roger Federer plays Ryan Harrison. The MIGHTY FED is playing a great young American talent. Harrison won a three set battle over Milos Raonic yesterday so let’s see what’s left in the tank…
This was a tennis tournament.... Like no other. This was a U.S. Open like no other.. Let's start with new logo. It's click art like ours? But we aren't the USTA.
The only way to describe this U.S. open is soaking wet without raining... It's really hard to play tennis when your socks are soaking wet and you are "sloshing" in your shoes. Your shoes get really heavy when they get wet.
What a start. First match in the new stadium and bye bye ladies number one seed and WTA World Number One. Simona Halep. Losing to Estonian Kaia Kanepi.
It was the end of an era at Crandon Park for the Miami Open last year. From the Lipton, to the Nasdaq 100, to the Sony Ericsson, to the Sony, to the Miami Open presented by Itau, Key Biscayne saw it all.
