One of the best places to play a tennis match happens to be the National Tennis Center. These public courts are pristine and fun to play. It's somewhat of a haul taking the subway out to Queens, but the facility happens to be one of the best. They host the US. Open tournament every year, the pinnacle for New York City tennis seekers. I like the very beginning of the tournament best, when many matches are happening simultaneously. The crowd gravitates around the grounds, like ants. Searching for the next close match and then gathering. Whispers and murmurs trickle through the grounds, with any hint of an upset, or five set marathon. Tennis ants mill around the grounds gathering tennis, working the place like a giant ant hill. And then the tournament ends and the facility again becomes public domain. The ants continue to scramble though, seeking the next great tennis match.
