Fernando Verdasco

Great weather for a night of tennis at the Sony Ericsson Open in Key Biscayne on Monday.

After watching a set marred by botched volleys and unforced errors in the match between Stepanek and Gonzalez, we hiked back to a smaller court to see some hard hitting between fellow Spaniards Verdasco and Lopez.

Finished the evening by returning to an empty main grandstand and front row seats to enjoy a terrific competition between Li and Makarova.  Both women had upset top 10 players coming into the match and neither of them wanted to go home early. The hard fought three sets went until nearly midnight and were entertaining from start to finish.

How to keep your volleys out of the net.
