他们不是真正的网球观众“要票吗?决赛门票100元一张。”9月的上海喜力网球公开赛期间,上海仙霞网球中心门口,每天都有一群票贩子守着,原价500元一张的喜力公开赛决赛门票,在他们那里100元就能轻松买下,与去年大师杯赛“一票难求”的景象有天壤之别;场内,看台上观众稀稀拉拉,组委会不得不把附近中学的学生轮番请来观看,只是这些小观众一来看不懂比赛,二来好动。
Last minute withdrawals knocked both the Polo Open WTA tournament and the Heineken Open ATP event in Shanghai a notch down. Serea Williams and Jennifer Capriati pulled out of the Polo Open, while Marat Safin opted out of the Heineken Open and former French Open champion and fourth seed Albert Costa withdrew after the draw had been made.
