Last night, I photographed an amazing event, "Serving For A Cure," a charity tennis exhibition hosted by professional tennis star James Blake. The event raised money for the late Thomas Blake, Sr., Memorial Research Fund which James established to support cancer research at Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center (MSKCC). James Blake, Andy Roddick, the Bryan brothers, Sam Querrey and American tennis "it girl" Melanie Oudin were part of a tennis exhibition match followed by a fashion show by Fila and musical performance by Wyclef Jean. John Mayer paid a visit and hung out with the players and danced with fans.
Andy Roddick, Rafael Nadal, Layton Hewitt and the world's top professional tennis players joined celebrity chef Marcus Samuelsson and NY's finest chefs to showcase their culinary skills at the W New York on August 23rd! The annual Thursday night kick-off to the US Open is called the Taste of Tennis and is one of the best events in NYC.
