Arrive early, stay hydrated (refill your water bottle at the drinking fountains rather than keep paying $6 for an Evian), cheer on the players you discover on the outer courts, and at lunch, try the Momofuku chicken sandwich.

And bring sunscreen.

Most of all, fall in love with tennis up close and personal all over again.

Play gets underway 11:00am on Monday, August 26th.
