I wasn't sure whether to take it or not but pleased I did - it actually helped me concentrate on the matches more

I saw only doubles Bryan & Bryan V Moodie & Norman in the Mens

Then in the mixed Paes & Black V Sa & Sugiyama then Knowles & Groenefeld V Bryan & Stosur

I much prefer watching singles though

Your first photo just brought back memories of my kids serving as ball boy/girl for several Pro/Am tournaments in Tucson. You did a great job of showing their readiness to spring into action. The kids would always be both exhilarated and exhausted by the end of the match. Nicely done!

Less conventional is good Sheldon. These are excellent shots. No action in these shots, but you certainly get the feel that the action is there. Nice work. I hope that you enjoyed Wimbledon.

Dave.
