Master's cup Shanghai 08

Before i start this blog, I must say I am a big fan of Jim courier, Andrew Agassi, Roger fredrer...,

I started playing tennis at an age of 11 when Dr. Rajendranath, my coach influenced me to join tennis club... Although it was not a professional coaching, he put in lot of efforts to see atleast 2 or 3 from our club play in state level matches... n it happened too...

I could play in a disctrict tournament... that was my 1st & last tournament... went till semi's (got a walkover in quarter's).... I left playing tennis at 15.... and now I m 23 yrs old...

I used to dream to watch int'l games betn agassi , fredrer... Thanks to my company n my job....I had this opportunity of seeing Master's cup in shanghai (Oct 08)...


It was Mithun's effort, who pulled me to see this match again....

It was an amazing experience.... first time seeing an int'l match live!!! that too bet ^n Djokovic n del potro...

We (me & mithun) started in the morning at 10 am from my place. We had to go to a place called "Xian shxi lu" where this tournament 's happening. Bfore we took our places (5D & 5E), we did some shopping in the campus... I bought some T shirts for me , andy n cherry, a pullover & a cap for me...

It was the opening day of the tourney .... so stadium was near full...

The day's schedule had 4 matches.... 2 singles & 2 doubles

I was excited when the first match started betn Djokovic n del potro...
