Hey everyone, it's Andrew. On Nov. 13th, Corinna and I went to see the Master's Tennis tournament that was held in Shanghai. It's a bit like Wimbledon, but on a smaller scale, and only men's tennis. We went out the the stadium, which is about an hour and a half bus ride from where we are, and arrived at around 2 pm. It is a very nice facility, which holds approx. 5,000 fans, and is probably less than 5 years old. The roof even opens up for summer events.
As for the matches, we saw a two men's doubles matches, and two men's singles. The most exciting one was between the number 3 ranked in the world Djokovic and the number 6 Tsonga. It was a great tennis, with lot's of amazing net play, and in the end, the "underdog" Tsonga came out victorious. However, at the end of the week, Djokovic was declared the overall winner of the tournament, after beating Roger Federrer a few days later. Here are some pics of the event, and the winner Tsonga signing the camera lens after the game.
