The US Open had its star-studded opening on Monday and celebrated the 40th Anniversary of the Open Era. Quite a few of the game’s stars didn’t make it but many others did. The event which took place at Arthur Ashe Stadium honored the first tournament champions of the Open era, Virginia Wade and Arthur Ashe.
It was hosted by Forest Whitaker and included retired champions Billie Jean King, John McEnroe, Martina Navratilova, Rod Laver and Boris Becker as well as Roger Federe, Lindsay Davenport, Venus Wiliams, Serena Williams, Maria Sharapova, Marat Safin and Andy Roddick. Arthur Ashe’s widow Jeanne and his daughter Camera were present at the opening night ceremony. |
