Hi I’m Mel, aka Grand Slam Gal.

I’ve been a tennis fan for most of my life, ever since I was allowed to stay up on a school night in 1987 to watch Pat Cash defeat Ivan Lendl to win Wimbledon.

Twelve years ago I set a goal to attend all four tennis grand slam events the year I turned 40.

This year I achieved that goal.

And what a year it was!

Read my tennis story and find out more about the 2012 Grand Slam Plan.

Aside from getting the money together and making sure I had flexible work that allowed me to take the necessary time off, successfully completing the “fan slam” took research and planning.

Now that my fan slam is complete, I’m creating a series of e-Books to share the information that I wish I knew before I left!

The Grand Slam e-Companion series will expand on information previously shared on this blog, as well as providing new and exclusive content. The French Open e-Companion is the second in the series.

The 38 page French Open e-Companion includes invaluable tips to help you make the most of the money you’re already spending on tickets, travel and accommodation. 

  • French Open ticket options
    • Court Philippe Chatrier
    • Court Suzanne Lenglen

    • Ground Passes
  • Getting to Roland Garros on the Metro
  • What you can’t bring in to the French Open
