Off to my first event - Beijing Olympic tennis
August 14, 2008
Today I am finally going to my first ticketed event at the 2008 Beijing Olympics. I am taking my daughter to the Olympic tennis tournament this afternoon. I can’t wait.
She was probably more excited yesterday than she will be today as we got her a full set of Olympic mascots. She played with them for hours.
I was just checking the schedule for this afternoon and we are in for a treat. In quarterfinals action Roger Federer will be playing James Blake in the first match on centre court. This is followed by Venus Williams against the Li Na. And if that is not enough we will get to see Rafael Nadal take on Jurgen Melzer.
If the centre court action is not good enough we can wonder out to show court 1 and watch Serena Williams play Elena Dementieva followed by Paul-Henri Mathieu versus Fernando Gonzalez. After that match the Australian Open winner, Novak Djokovic will play exciting French player Gael Monfils.
I don’t think I could have asked for it any better if I could pick the exact matches I wanted to see at the quarterfinal stage in the Olympic tennis tournament.
