This was in September 2007, US Open final and one weekend we visited my dad who lives in New Jersey.that Sunday there was a final match so we wanted to see the match anyhow.so we purchased the tickets in black.We are really very excited to see the match that day.we are completely new to the train system in New york.. but anyhow we reached the Arthur Ash stadium by changing 2 trains.
There was huge crowd and first the Women's Double final match is going on.we are not that much intrested to see the match so we roamed around all the place by visiting all the shops and exhibitions around the stadium.It was really good as everything was very well organised.In the mid-afternoon about 2pm Lexus people invited Martina Navratilova to give autographs to the visitors.so we stood in line for about 1/2hr and at last successful in taking the autograph with her.it was really good experience and wonderful moment.
About 4 pm the final match of gents started.The stadium was full and it started with a welcoming song and American national anthem,then the match started.The two hero's-- Roger Federer and Novak Djokovic came on to the court.Started with friendly stokes the match started.till the first 2 sets the game was exciting but after that it went completely to the Federer hands.the match was completed in just 3 sets.The award function was arranged in just minutes and every thing was really wonderful.
