Know anyone who is looking for US Open tickets?
"I have a pair of first week (US Open) tickets," writes Dan Kam, "that allows the ticketholder to access all venues: Ashe stadium, Armstrong stadium and all outside courts. Day tickets are for Monday to Friday and night tickets are for Monday to Thursday, a total of 18 tickets. Can't use them this year. Have plans to be elsewhere."

Dan also sends us a news story that Chris Evert married Greg Norman Saturday. Shocking.
