I spent a good day at the U.S. Open as the event got underway in New York, spending some quality time with some Choate folks and enjoying matches from a spectacular courtside vantage point. We were right next to the action on Ashe Stadium as Andy Roddick celebrated his birthday with a decisive win.
I always enjoy heading to the tournament in the first few days, for my ability to follow the tennis is intermittent at best, as the demands of opening school seem to dominate my days this time of year.
