US Tennis Open...

This was our second year going to the US Tennis Open at Flushing Meadows in Queens.  We had such a blast last year that we made sure to come back.  We've now decided it might have to be an every-other-year kind of tradition once we leave the East Coast.  There had been rain throughout the day, which resulted in rain delays on all the courts.  We were worried we were going to miss Andy Murray, our scheduled match, but luckily they only postponed his match. 

For the first hour or so, we caught some matches on the smaller courts.  One that we just had to see was the Duckworth v. Smyczek match.  I mean, come on, how often do you see a professional athlete with your same last name? 

They let us into Arthur Ashe stadium while the day match was still going on, and we were able to watch an awesome finish by Del Potro, followed by Andy Murray taking the match in three straight sets.  It was a great night and we were so happy we were able to share it with Mitch's parents.
