The buzz, the crowd, the drama, the atmosphere

Fernando Gonzalez (top serve 135mph - a second serve during a minor man tantrum)

Our friend Andy Roddick who we also saw a month ago in Paris (fastest serve 134 mph)

Venus Williams - a superior tactician, personality and tennis mind over her sister (fastest serve 115 mph).

Argentinean Leonardo Mayer (top serve 125mph).
