I ran into Collette again as she was leaving the court after being one of the flag bearers for the ceremony--and the Czechs were right behind her. Who was I more happy to see? Now I'm going to walk the grounds as my usual good-bye to the Open before the singles final. Saddest part of the year for me, having to say good-bye.

Aww, lt...
Does anyone know if the women's final will be available online at the USO site?

tikigirl, it looks like it will be. They are streaming live from Ashe now--Agassi is speaking (being inducted to the Court of Champions I think).

Okay, I'm sitting here with a vodka and grapefruit; who's with me?

Have one for me! Though Carillo might send me to the local dive.

Falafaclese, I totally just had a close encounter with Collette! I was watching them practice the flag unfurling on the Grandstand and when I was walking back to Armstrong, there she was, carrying a pizza and ready to watch the women's doubles with the rest of the ballkids. That's too funny. I don't think I would know what to do with myself if I saw her in person. I've now made it potentially weird for myself.

The Smash Sisters. Why am I not surprised? Bring it, Serena!
You all should start a Collette fan club. But who would be president??

Is Serena pulling herself back together here? . . .

I sincerely hope so, fala! There's not enough vodka/grapefruit in the world to view another Azarenka victory dance...

I've resorted to a margarita. Desperate times . . .

But dear lord I just cannot tolerate her. Not enough tequila either.
And should I know what's up with that orange-capped corner of the stands? They keep showing the court from behind them. Feeling stupid...
