2 Avenue Gordon Bennett, 75016 Paris, France, 1 June 2017 | Jeremy Jin
I was nervous and excited to board the plane to Paris, it was the longest flight I have ever been on. I only had a few hours of sleep on the plane, the rest of the time I spent watching movies. We stopped off in Dubai and I was already wanting to get to my hotel room and sleep. The next seven hours on the plane felt like such a long time, but we finally made it to Paris. During the car ride to the hotel I was extremely tired, but when I saw the Eiffel Tower for the first time I got excited and instantly woke up.
I went sight-seeing during my first full day in Paris. Our hotel is right next to the Eiffel Tower so we walked there. I couldn’t believe how tall it was. We continued to walk along the Seine, there were so many boats on the river filled with tourists. We also walked up to the Arc De Triomphe, again it looked so much bigger than what I thought it would be.
On Tuesday we began our training camp with the Longines Academy. We went to La Defense where they have built a pop-up tennis court in the middle of all these buildings especially for the tournament. Half of the group stayed here and the other half went to the second venue, La Chataigneraie to practice. We all had lunch together afterwards then we split up again. This time my group played at La Defense. It was great getting to hit with the other kids and to see how everyone plays.

Todd Woodbridge shares an update from the ANZ Tennis Hot Shots Racquet Roadshow.
Melbourne VIC, Australia, 1 June 2017 | Todd Woodbridge
Australian tennis legend Todd Woodbridge shares his blog as he travels across Australia delivering racquets to primary school students as part of the ANZ Tennis Hot Shots Racquet Roadshow…
I’ve had a wonderful few weeks travelling around Australia to celebrate an incredible milestone – 80,000 racquets delivered to primary school students over the past two years, all thanks to ANZ.
As part of the celebration we’ve hit the road with the ANZ Tennis Hot Shots Racquets Roadshow and now we are halfway through our five-week tour it’s a good opportunity to reflect on what we’ve done, where we’ve been and why it’s so important to inspire children to get involved in a great sport like tennis.

Nick Kyrgios and Jordan Thompson stun No.2 seeds in Roland Garros opening round.
Paris, France, 1 June 2017 | Darren Walton, AAP
Nick Kyrgios and Jordan Thompson have given Australian captain Lleyton Hewitt another priceless option with a bumper doubles win at the French Open in Paris.
Hewitt watched on intently as Kyrgios and Thompson silenced home fans with a 7-6(8) 4-6 6-3 dismissal of French second seeds Pierre-Hugues Herbert and Nicolas Mahut on Wednesday.
Teaming for the first time, Kyrgios and Thompson connected beautifully in a Davis Cup-like atmosphere on packed a Court 3 at Roland Garros in what bodes well ahead of Australia’s semifinal on clay in Belgium later this year.
