The difficulty of buying tickets for sporting events in other countries is just ridiculous. It made me think of the World Cup, which is still fresh in my mind because Chinese social media was surprisingly full of praise for the good old USA. I wouldn\u2019t be surprised if Donald Trump wrote all those positive posts himself!<\/p>\n

Joking aside, one thing I really appreciate here is the ticketing service\u2014even if I constantly complain about the absurd fees. A $47 online processing fee<\/a> on a $200 ticket? Why so expensive? Isn’t modern technology supposed to make our lives easier and cheaper? In reality, it seems to do just the opposite.<\/p>\n

Well, now I’m embarking on my little journey… just to buy tickets:<\/p>\n

Here is my tennis toureys this year:
\n1. Miami Open<\/a>
\n2. Sarasota Open<\/a> @ IMG
\n3. Madrid Open<\/a>
\n4. Japan Open<\/a> @ Tokyo
\n5. Seoul
\n6. China Open @ Beijing
\n7. Shanghai Rolex Masters<\/p>\n

I\u2019ve either attended or already secured tickets for all my planned tournaments, except #5 in Seoul (Sept 20\u201327), which isn’t on sale yet.<\/p>\n

The first three were easy enough to buy and attend. Madrid Open<\/a> (#3) went smoothly ticket-wise, but I wouldn’t go back\u2014the venue was just too shabby.<\/p>\n

In the past, my friends in China always handled my sports and concert tickets. This time, after running into so many headaches trying to buy tickets for the ATP 500 Kinoshita Group Japan Open<\/a> in Tokyo, I decided to tackle the Chinese tournaments on my own.<\/p>\n

Naturally, I was completely defeated by the booking sites: first, I had to download two separate apps, neither of which functioned properly. Secondly, the registration forms didn’t even include an international country code field, so I couldn’t receive a confirmation SMS. Thirdly, buyer has to submit full passport details just to purchase a ticket and then present your passport again at the gate. My goodness… it\u2019s a tennis match, not border control!<\/p>\n

And the cherry on top? There\u2019s no option to add tickets to Apple or Google Wallet. With the events still weeks away, those ticket screenshots are going to be completely buried in my photos!<\/p>\n
