It's Not Too Late For Oz Open Tix

January 21, 2009 at 1:10 PM | by amandak | 0 Comments

Summer tennis action has hit Australia this week with the start of the the 2009 Australian Open in Melbourne. The tournament is held in Melbourne Park, a ten-minute walk from the center of the city, or a five-minute trip on the tram.

Whether, like us, you still have a weird thing for #2 seed Roger Federer, or if Serbian beauty Jelena Jankovic gets your racket swinging, apparently there are still tickets available even for the second week of the tournament, starting at A$70 ($50) for early rounds and rising as the matches go on.

As for who's going to be holding the trophies come February 1, well, we can't really go past a Williams sister for the women's, although we're not willing to decide on Venus or Serena. On the men's court, we're hoping for Federer but have a suspicion it might be Novak Djokovic this time round. But don't place bets based on our intuition.

Tennis champ Venus Williams rocks a LeSportsac bag at LAX yesterday, soon after returning triumphant to the States from the Sony Ericcson championship in Doha, Qatar.

Thanksgiving may be your best chance to catch a celebrity in transit: Since they have the same holiday as all of us, they might be forced to buy the same overpriced airport sundries. Happy hunting!
