Well, upon entrance, we noticed that they were not allowing camera lenses longer than 3.5 inches long. Well, they had me pull out my camera and they checked it. It must be about 3.7 inches long. Seriously. That's lame. So they had me escorted to guest services to check in my camera bag. I wasn't about to let this prevent me from taking pictures, so I snuck my camera out of the bag at the last minute before turning it in. Victory! The only downside was that I had to leave my telephoto lens in the bag (I didn't want the camera bag to be too light). Anyway, yet another win for Russell's camera in the battle against Security. So, here are the results (if I had my telephoto lens, I would've been able to take pictures up the tennis players' noses...maybe it's better I didn't have it):
Here was our view from the 5th row:
Lindsay Davenport vs. Mary Pierce (they had 2 tiebreakers!):
Maria Sharapova vs. Amelie Mauresmo:
I was most impressed with Maria Sharapova despite her loss. She was very aggressive and her serve was awesome. She wasn't able to take control of the game because she let her mistakes get to her head.

The next day, Mary Pierce played in the Finals against Amelie Mauresmo. Mauresmo took the victory, which was well deserved.
