Friday Fun at the Rogers Cup Toronto: Serena Williams, Pete Sampras, James Blake, Magdalena Rybarikova with a Surprise Appearance by Marion Bartoli
"Watch Pete Sampras play tennis live." has been very near the
top of my bucket list for a very long time. Unfortunately, he had
retired by the time I was in a position to attend tennis tournaments.
That dream finally came true last Friday when I was fortunate enough to watch the exhibition match between Pistol Pete and James Blake (officiated in part by Marion Bartoli, the 2013 Wimbledon Champion), part of the ATP Legends Tour, following the quarter final match of the Rogers Cup between Serena Williams and Magdalena Rybarikova.
The experience was made possible thanks to the Rogers Cup and the #RogersCup10k twitter contest as well as Three Works Snacks & Chips (we have previously written about them, here and here) who hosted all the winners in their suite, complete with amazing food, drinks and excellent company of fellow tennis fans. Also, we did not leave the suite empty handed as each guest was given a bag full of Three Works goodies including Sugarpova candy, delicious apple chips, a computer fan (excellent while blogging) and many more fantastic items. See for yourselves after the jump.
