The cat fight @ Grandstand

Compare to Louis Armstrong stadium, the new Grandstand is more relaxed, spread out at US Open. Lower part is reserved for ticket holders (not sure purchased or comp). Caroline Garcia defeat Monica Puig, that match feels like raw cat fight. I’ve never watched Slone Stehphen playing live, so find her to be mild – ok, will have to watch her soon. Lucas Pouille and Marcos Baghdatis match followed, the French won in 4 sets.

Louis Armstrong: Day 4

This is the original center court @ the Open, which was free (no tickets required), now added a top section which is too steep, which is free but the bottom is fee based.  Part of the free portion has sections that are for subscribers (whatever it means). Although it has a roof, but the air circulation is excellent, MUCH better than Ashe.

Wang Yafan lost to Petra Kvitová. Gaël Monfils retired to give the match to Kei Nishikori, I didn’t finish Lesia Tsurenko defeat Caroline Wozniacki (her outfits are always tasteful but not this one) in two sets (left 4-4 first set) – catching the 10:29 train home.

The American Express experience

This year at the Open, the design is the same but feel much solider than last year. They add the blue wrist band: spending $100, AE will reimbuse you $20.

Sexist …

What do you do when putting on your shirt inside out? You change it. But when Cornet changes it, albeit on court, the chair empire issues her a code  violation. Hi, why the boys do that don’t get code violation? US Open quickly appolized.

  

… this outfit, proves to be popular …

2 on 1

Someone said he’ll come but failed to show up, so we played two on one; the one is my partner and the two of us couldn’t get a win out of him. Therefore, you get the picture – that all the wins over the years are his doing -:) thanks buddy!

A paddled weekend

The paddle boat (Sun Dolphin goes for $665 on Amazon) is very functional (seems every home around Elm Lake owns one – I love it); the paddle board is a lot of fun too.

Kayaking on the Hudson

Kayake @ Pier 26. We were waiting for our food @ City Vineyard, so I went over to check.
“What time is it?” The girl asked.
“6:59” I said, looking at my phone.
“Ok, you’ll be the last one.

Putin has an umbrella


10 years ago Putin gave an interview – he was chosen as Man of the Year – around the time he got naked on a horse (while Bush was in a fighter pilot suit…) and Mr. Putin said … the West thinks he just got off a tree with dirty in his hair … seriously I think he is and does even today -:)
