Shame on USTA

The photo is Zheng Saisai, NOT Zhang Shuai 

Can’t USTA get their act together: using Zheng Saisai’s photo for Zhang Shuai?

The second match at Louis Armstrong stadium is women’s doubles which is our main attraction: Zhang Shuai and Sam Stosur. There are a few interruptions from system malfunction (?) and the biggest one is, USTA put up (郑赛赛 1994-) Zheng Saisai’s photo for Zhang. This is a bit too hard to swallow.

I like both players, Zhang Shuai and Sam Stosur. It was Stosur who talked Zhang out of retirement in 2015. They’ve won Aussie Open doubles in 2019. They’ve similar physiques, wear identical outfit. The Aussie’s arms are more muscle than the Chinese.

I’ve seen Zhang many times and enjoy her skill as well as her physical appearance – she has the perfect body for tennis. Her arms are particularly pretty. Stosur is in great shape and a slightly shorter than Zhang. Her torso is also slightly thiner than Zhang’s.

Same dog different day

I’ve seen this dog at Mets or Citifield many times. A bit surprise to see him or her at the 2021 US Open too.

Day 4 after Ida

10:06pm

The fourth day at the US Open tennis 2021. After a heavy rain the previous day and night from tropical storm Ida (挨打 … can’t help it every time I hear this name) when many have died, the weather couldn’t be any better.

I bought a cheap seat for $32.25 online (section 316, row X): $25 for the ticket, plus $5 per ticket service fee and $2.95 order processing fee charged by TicketMaster. I took the LIRR ($9.25 each way! Gosh they should do better) instead of driving, and stopped by Flushing to pick up some dinner, for my Paris gang as well.
Unbeknown to me, my dad is a USTA celebrity now – here is his 28 seconds fame video. Even before he sat down, two young bubbly women behind me said, “I know you! I saw your video …”

俺来了 … omg 😳 俺终于变名人后了 – 犹爸晋升网红.

他过来还没有坐下 后面2个娃就说 “嘿 我知道你 就在那个视频里…” 一番合影 留电话 明天见 … 本来大家都挺安安静静的在看 一下子活跃起来了. 人见人爱的老头 从来没有看见过他重复印满警句的T恤. 80岁生日高空跳伞 现在85岁半退休(足科医生)还是一星期4-5次🎾. 他太太去世时我们非常担心 … 结果是多余. 反正和他一起不大笑难 2019 我们三人帮去法网 2年后 俺和小二 四肢不灵光 只有老爸还在打 谢谢更换的膝盖. 俺时常在想是不是也去更新四肢. 网红链. 周末快乐!  如果您觉得俺是个🎾bum 那是最大的冤枉. 犹爸每年2星期几乎24小时扎在美网 (全职诊所靠小密打理) 如果可以睡他一定就不回家了. 80年代🎾名人🦶都是靠他修理. 记得他初见俺娃 第一句话是 走走 让俺看看是不是🎾料 [呲牙][调皮][捂脸]
