Day 7 at RG13 - Sven's Postcard |

As I mentioned yesterday that there is a transition taking place and today was the perfect example of this transition taking place!

And we can start with the weather because that is part if he transition that is a happy welcome but again another factor for the players to adapt to!

The eye in the sky is sponsored this year by Emirates airlines and it look almost really and the Blue sky’s were a nice change from our past week in Paris!

While watching the doubles of Ayumi and Sorana the ball boy/girl crew was getting a front row spot while watching their colleagues and enjoying the change in temperature!

I had also a very close look at the power serve of Jerzy who played on court which favorite is powerful game but Stan was to strong for him today but I am sure JJ will be challenging many players on the grass in the coming weeks

Today we also had a very special visitor in the adidas lounge and I got a chance to meet and spend some time with him! Guess who it was?

Tomorrow the junior tournament will start and the most if my day will be scouting the grounds for new talent and our own contracted juniors!

Today I spend a few hours on court with Daniela Hantuchova who is practicing on the syntactic grass in preparation for her coming tournaments on Grass!

I look forward to another great day at Roland Garros! Lucky me
