Tennis Weekend

I spent last weekend in Cincinnati with my friend Tomato, shopping and watching some great tennis at the Western and Southern Financial Group Masters tournament.


The tournament is part of the US Open Series, which is a series of summer hardcourt tournaments that leads up to the US Open. It's also an ATP 1000 event, just a step below the grand slams in terms of ranking points, which means all the top players in the world attend.

We got to see Novak Djokovic


and Rafael Nadal


and my favorite doubles team, Bob and Mike Bryan.


We also saw John Isner (an up-and-coming US player) in the lobby of our hotel, which was pretty cool. It was a lot of fun. Tomato and I have been going for 3 years now, and we've got the good restaurants, shopping, parking, etc. all scoped out. We seem to keep missing Andy Roddick and Roger Federer, but maybe next year!
