What a day it was! With a ton of matches and some rain delays in between! Not to forget all of the practise sessions for those players that were not on the schedule for the first day.
The Sunday normally is not to busy because most players have 1 session before the tournament starts the next day however if you have as many players as I do it is a challenging day of making sure the nerves and expectations are met an settled.
We are on Thursday before the Open and now the real deal starts and the last thing you want is a day that makes it even more challenging than it already is for so many people!
These are the days that the total magic is going to happen! Over the next 5 to 7 days it will be a mad house as all players and their teams arrive in NY and when I have to juggle many players and their schedules!
This is Day 3 for me but Day 1 for the US Open qualifying event. On my arrival this morning it was a different energy already.
Since I am taking you in this journey I might as well tell you what my day looks like when you are not on court and you have to travel from one town to the next!
The great Jimmy Connors using a closet as a changing room....Not exactly. But sort of. It's a little known fact that coaches on the tennis pro tour don't get great access to showers or lockers.
On day 3 it was a juggling and balancing act again. Luckily no rain because rain is a pain when you are working with 5 different girls at one time.
I have been working with many video analysis systems in the past. recently I have been using the app, created by The Australian Tennis Federation.

The Mid Sunday is the best ever what a grand slam can offer! I believe we have a privilege of Having a full day of no competition!
For those who read my blog yesterday like you did Torben (coach Kerber) this Blog is for you!
The count down has started and tomorrow will be the last day before the Wimbledon championships begin!
Before I start the Grass Court season I would like to have a special entry about the The World Championships Dinner in Paris. (during Roland Garros)
My last day was the longest of them all but one to remember!
