This tournament is a promotional event hosted annually by the French American Chamber of Commerce (FACC NY) and sponsored by French companies. Like Volvic - oooh, an ice cold bottle of orange flavored volvic spring water is too die for on a hot tournament day - i'm forever a fan and will always buy their products as long as they continue to sponsor my favorite tournament.
It's held at the West Side Tennis Club which is the site of the former US Open and has both Har-tru and Grass (yes!) courts. The main part of the tournament is played on the Har-tru, then the one-point tournament (whoever wins the point advances) is on grass.
Heres my team (L-R): Ronzo (i already told you about him), Guy (he used to work at Mck as a java programmer) and me. The second photo is of me and Guy's wife who was the fourth on our team. The photo was taken on the patio where they were serving a barbeque dinner with complementary champagne.
(now you know why it's my favorite tournament?)
