Australian Open

Melbourne, Australia

January 19 - February 1 2009

While traveling “down under” to the Australian Open Tennis Tournament is more time consuming than the other three Grand Slams, in many ways it is also the most rewarding.  The weather is beautiful, the tournament atmosphere is relaxing yet fun, and the grounds are easily the most accessible of all the Slams.

Located just a ten minute walk from Downtown Melbourne and the picturesque Yarra River, Melbourne Park (home to Rod Laver Arena and the rest of the Australian Open Grounds) is very conveniently located.  In fact, many spectators will wander to a downtown restaurant or bar in between sessions to enjoy a light meal and drinks.  This accessibility to good food and fun is simply not as available at other events.
