Stanford Championship in Dallas

Here are some pictures I took at the Stanford Championships in Dallas
this past weekend. If you have the chance to go to one of these, you should. They are smaller venues with small crowds, the players are great and you have plenty of access to get autographs or take pictures with your favorites.

Anna Kournikova was the main draw this weekend. The crowd was fairly small during the 1st match, then near capacity to watch Anna play a set of mixed doubles, yep only one set. She played with Thomas Enquist against some local players no one has ever heard of. After that, everyone left and the crowd was small again for the night matches.

Jim Courier and Thomas Enquist advanced to the finals, each with a 3-0 record.
