Are you ready for South Florida's largest tennis tournament? After being a part of this grand event for the past 5 years, I cannot imagine being anywhere else in the world during this two week tennis extravaganza (March 22- April 4, 2010). When I was a young ballgirl, I handed players like Andy Roddick their tennis balls during major matches inside Stadium Court. Last year, I stood by Roger Federer as he signed autographs inside the racket tent for a never ending line of fans! With every experience, my love for tennis keeps growing and I always try to encourage others to visit the courts. The Sony Ericsson Open is one of nine ATP Masters Series events on the ATP calendar. This tournament attracts the top men's and women's players from all over the world along with their loyal fans. All matches take place at the beautiful Tennis Center at Crandon Park in Key Biscayne.
