Star Spotting at The US Open

Apart from getting to watch my favourite players in action at the U.S. Open — namely these two (please excuse the poor quality of these photos, I was very, very far away and had to use the creative combination of binoculars and regular digital camera):

my annual pilgrimages to Arthur Ashe Stadium have also been rewarded by the presence of Hollywood celebrities in the audience. On a good day, they’ll also goof around for the cameras. Last year, Will Ferrell flexed his biceps for us. This year, as SexyBack played overhead, Justin Timberlake gave the thumbs up to one audience member moving to his music and when the camera panned out to another dancing tennis fan and then back to him, he gave it a palm down, “so-so” rating. It was funny.

Below are but a few of the stars I was quick enough to snap a picture of on the jumbotron. Others (who I can recall anyway) include Charlize Theron with boyfriend Stuart Townsend and Gwen Stefani.
