The AIG Japan Open Tennis Championships are underway in Ariake, Tokyo. Although Roger Federer isn’t back to defend his title, there are still plenty of big names taking part, including Venus Williams and Lleyton Hewitt.
Like last year ^[1], they are behind schedule because of the rain, but that should just mean that you will get more matches for your money. I’ll try to catch a few games tomorrow evening if I can.
Living just over the road from the Ariake tennis complex, this is a fun time of the year. I bumped into some pro’s shopping in our Lawson convenience store and last night a couple of them were watching our evening tennis coaching session.
