Under the Blazing Heat of the Sun: A Day (Well, Six Hours) at the US Open
This is supposed to be a slide show presentation of sorts but I'm too lazy to actually make one so you'll have to imagine the pictures fading out instead of you actually just scrolling down. While you're at it, imagine Polyphonic Spree's Light and Day playing in the background.

Lindsay Davenport and Venus Williams played a really good game. (Davenport won)
Venus (in one of her pretty little outfits) action shot. That's Serena in the orange shirt above the Heineken sign.
The pictures have a paparazzi-like feel precisely because they were taken from quite a distance. Last year I saw a pregnant Steffi Graf through my binoculars. Later in the day, when our brain cells got enough sun stimulation, we realized that the people on the other side of the stadium were less likely to get skin cancer as they were under some sort of shade, so we moved and found some seats a few rows down.
