Tennis

Because Warren is volunteering at the tennis, he got free tickets, two by two in the daytime and one by two night games. Australia team was playing but they weren't giving away those tickets as they were expected to sell out which I think they did or came close.

We elected to see Canada versus Greece which was the very first game of the newest competition.  It kicked off at 10am and we caught the 8.38am train.

The format was eight teams in Brisbane, eight in Sydney and a further eight in Perth. Top seed Nadal and his country's team played in Perth, second seed in Sydney and the Aussie team in Brisbane. It was a round robin, two singles and a doubles. Our guys won all three each time and therefore went straight into the quarter finals and today against Great Britian, they went 2- 1. Our young Alex had a three hour twenty minute singles match and lost it then he backed up for another three hour doubles match which he and Nick won, so nail biting.

 It is a great venue there are no poor seats at all. This was taken at the night game which Sheridan and I went and saw Greece and Germany.
