Chris Nicholson's Writing Weblog
August 30, 2005 Tuesday
Tennis' US Open begins today in Queens, New York.
For the past decade this annual fortnight has been the busiest two weeks of my year, due to my having been on the editorial staff at Tennis magazine. Last year I left the magazine to freelance full-time, but the US Open still promises to be a busy, busy period for me. However, this year my role in covering the US Open is different than in the past. I'll be working as an editor with the official tournament website, USOpen.org.
I'll be doing some non-tennis work, too, but much of my next 14 days will revolve around what's going on in Queens. My only chance for respite from 14-hour workdays will be rain cancellations — if there are any. Despite the busy schedule, I should still have time to update this blog, probably with goings-on at the tournament.
Game on!
