If it worked for Andy Murray as a junior, it should help your students improve too.

Spain is Davis Cup World Champions in last 3 of 4 years; now in its 4th Final in 5 years.

After the Davis Cup Semi-Finals loss to David Ferrer and Nicholas Almago, John Isner admitted, “It is disappointing; the Spanish team in my opinion is just too good....That is a credit to [Nicolas] Almagro and Ferrer, they were both better than me." (ATPWorldTour.com)

$5 Grounds Pass for Men's Monday Finals

You can also get a $5 Grounds Admission Pass to watch the Men's Final at the US Open on the big screens. It can actually be a very exciting crowd outside the stadium. You can actually hear the players' shots echoing, fans cheering on both sides plus usually a better view than sitting at the very top of Ashe.

Tip: Be sure to pick up one of those Amex radios to get the play-by-play audio too. Can't beat $5 bucks!! 

Actually now that I think about it, if you arrive later at night and see some people leaving the match early - you could always ask them nicely for their old ticket. If Murray wins, it might be cool to go inside just to see Andy hoist his first Grand slam title! Enjoy the Finals!

Ferrer vs Djokovic, Murray vs Berdych

Should make for some great matches on Sat! Let's see who will tire out whom before Sunday's Final. Ferrer will be my dark horse pick to win it all; Maybe we'll see someone win their first major - lots of possibilities left.

Hope everyone will enjoy the rest of the US Open, wherever you get to watch it!
