Join CAAA as we participate in the US Open’s Fan Week! We plan to go on the last day of Fan Week, where the grounds fill up with top players practicing for the US Open Main Draw. We plan on meeting up near the grounds and watching some of the world’s best tennis players as they practice for the upcoming tournament.
