Pics of the AEGON Classic on quarter-finals day

June 15, 2012 By grandslamgal

Some pics from the AEGON Classic and the match between Roberta Vinci and Jie Zheng.

And then it rained….

Luckily the size of the canteen has been doubled for extra capacity

Hospitality looked like a nice place to be

The Moet spectator bar also provides cover

And then a little more play

And then more rain.

The current score in Zheng v Vinci is 3-6, 6-5. The other three quarterfinals are yet to be played.

My impression was that the AEGON Classic is a nice, friendly tournament.

I was really impressed by the way the ushers did their best to stop people moving to and from their seats when it wasn’t a change of ends. Was also impressed that they had towels at the ready to wipe the seats once we returned after a rain break. For me, it’s the little things that make a difference.

Until next time

    When there was a window for play the tennis was pretty good given the conditions. Looks warmer and drier in the photos than was the case.
