PowerShares Series Tennis Tickets

Event was an hour & a half late in getting started due to surface being lost in transport from Chicago. What kind of operation is Powershares running here? The intro videos and music played before the arrival of each player was too loud, almost ear-piercing. No need for such noise and glitz. All I want to see is some tennis. The host from Tennis Channel was loud and obnoxious. The commercials shown on the Jumbotron during changeovers were annoying and too loud. All in all, the evening was a complete waste of $145. I will never attend another Powershares event again.

We had to wait 2 hours for the floor to be placed down in order to watch tennis. That was painful. However, the stars only played one set each, and that was really disappointing. We were also led to believe that there would be more players than the four.

A two hour delay. A lack-luster performance. A waste of money and time.

I had been looking forward to this even all month. I was throughly disappointed when i arrived on time to NO court on the floor, and a 2 hour delay. It was great to see the legends of tennis play right before my eyes that is why i gave it 3 stars, but to start a tennis match at 9:30pm on a friday night was way to late.

McEnroe is so much fun to watch. He is so gifted and plays with a style that will never be duplicated. Of course, Sampras dominated as his talent is unmatched in this series. It was great to watch... Courier and Lendl were awesome as well!

The event was excellent. It was great to see these 4 guys play. I often now go to the US Open, but these guys had already retired. My only suggestion to improve the event was to have microphones on the court or on the players. The players often interacted with the crowd near them and it was hard to hear them. I think this would have made the experience even better.

The event was great with just the right length. The players were wonderful and the whole event was planned out very well. The only downsides were that you could not hear the players talking to each other (there should have been microphones) so we missed some of the jokes/banter. Also, Jimmy Connors was supposed to play when I purchased the tickets but was substituted with Ivan Lendl (who was just as good). It would have been nice if i was informed of that.

I wish the players would have been miked so that we could hear their interactions with the crowd and each other.

My dad and I went to this event and absolutely loved it. It's nice to see the old legends still have some magic in them! My dad was so happy to have the opportunity to watch some of his favorite players (Jmac!). He never had the chance to see them in person when they were still on the tour and didn't think he ever would. Hopefully Powershares returns next year in some form because Michigan doesn't see many tennis tournaments with this kind of star power. Me and my dad will be back if it does return!

The venue and players were excellent. I was disappointed in the size of the crowd. Why can't we get better turnout for tennis in Chicago? The line judges and chair were slightly embarrasing. Obviously they didn't have much experience calling matches. Overall I really liked the event but it needs improvement.

Some gimmicky stuff I've seen before on this tour. Expected more shops, vendors, promotional things,etc. Flyer I received about event was promoting Connors as one of the participants. He was not there, which was disappointing. Poorly run event. I'm a very thin guy and bought a medium tshirt that was described as fitting true to size. It is skin tight and the sleeves are way short. Gonna donate it to charity since it doesn't fit.
