My wife was there last night for Federer in his all black and the Serena match too.

You can't beat night tennis in NYC.

Yeah, its awesome.  I wont make it to the Open this year.......but its a great event.  Quintessential NYC event - -crowded, stupidly expensive, intense and loud (at night!). a great experience

Cool article.  Hope he didn't learn his ballboy skills from a guy named Kramer.

I don't even know how tennis is scored. I'm serious. It might as well be cricket to me.

From the article:  "If it weren't for new American 6-9 tennis sensation John Isner, Goulbourne would have been taller than most, if not all, the players entered in this year's Open.

So, because of Isner, Goulbourne is not taller than most of the players in the open?  Hmmm...odd.  I suspect that even with Isner there, the 6'7" Goulbourne is taller than most of the tennis players.

Tennis has been an afterthought...at best, in this country for the last 25 years.

Because we're not producing the great ones like we used to...

I'm fairly certain that Goulbourne was a ballboy during one of the matches I watched yesterday. Pretty cool thing.

If there are any tennis fans here, I hope you saw the Blake-Santoro match tonight.  That was unreal.

FYI, Goulbourne was also the ballboy during the Donald Young match today. Some good TV time for the kid.
