Two visits to Flushing Meadows-Corona Park to the 2009 U.S. Open, one a work-related trip Jen made and the other the night session on September 3, including separate pages for the Sharapova-McHale and Roddick-Gicquel matches:

Toward the end of the match they’ll give kids passes go down courtside, which is a generous thing to do. Once they find all the kids they can, they’ll let anyone else go down there. We only got to see the last couple of points, but the perspective courtside is really cool:
