It's a Match!

With the Australian Open under way, I couldn't resist posting a photograph taken of Andy Roddick and me at a charity tennis event in 2004. He was in the middle of two phenomenal years. He had just won the U.S. Open in 2003 and was runner-up at Wimbledon in 2004.

Now he's made it to the third round of the Australian Open having defeated Xavier Malisse of Belgium on Wednesday. Ranked 9th in the world today, he'll face Frenchman Fabrice Santoro in the next round.

But I digress; here he is, with me, at the charity tennis event!

Looking at the photograph, you might think I was a little more excited about getting my picture taken with him than he was about getting his picture taken with me. But the camera, you see, just caught him at the wrong moment.

This is how he actually looked when he first saw me walk into the room...


Well... not really.

I pulled the second photograph off the Australian Open Web site.

But a girl can pretend, can't she?
