Tennis in Midtown Atlanta

[LunaTEKKE]

Midtown Atlanta has received some nice press this week as the new site of the Men's BB&T Atlanta Open:

Apparently, the two show courts are only temporary, but the three practice courts will be left open after the tournament:

If I was any closer, I'd check out the Roddick-Isner night match this evening wearing a PP Shirt!

Awfully cool. Thanks to work, we couldn't make it over. We're aiming for next year.

Piedmont park also has tennis courts. FYI.

There's not as much pressure on me to find a tennis day this year, unlike 2011. I didn't qualify for the state tournament this year.

Yeah, a few years ago, a bunch of us were going to go over and play tennis at some point during the week. However, it became just too much of a pain in the ass to fly with a racquet.

Too bad when I'm at PP USA free time is at a minimum, otherwise I'd considering playing some tennis with some of ya. (Been forever since I picked up a raquet though..)
