I'm really interested in tennis since 2 years and I dream about going on Grand Slam tournament.
It is very expensive for me. Tickets, hotel, plane....
Can anybody tell me about atmosphere. Maybe u have some photos with tennis players?
In my country is only one WTA tournament, no ATP tournaments from this year, only challengers.
I dream about Grand Slam but I wasn't on any tennis tournaments. I had chance this year to go on challenger but I had to go to work.

if u dont live in the country of GS, then it will obviously be super expensive for you to watch it, as you will also have to bear travelling, and staying expensese, which in fact will cost many times more than the tickets!
here, we dont have any GS, and unfortonately, i have not seen any GS as yet. the only international tenis tournament we have here is chennai open, which is currenyl going o - soderling, the top seed, just lost in the 1st round yesterday.
i wish i can sometime mange to see a fedex-rafa final at wimbledon :D

Yes, but it was a very long time ago and I can't really contribute much to most of your questions. I went to the U. S. Open back when Jimmy Connors was still playing and I was working in New Jersey in the U. S. A. A woman where I worked organized a group trip for a day and we went in by train. I got to see Connors play but from very high up in the stadium. I also passed by a very young(around 14) Jennifer Capriatti outside the stadium when she had just lost and was in tears. She was so upset she had exited the stadium alone into the crowd carrying her equipment.
