Tennis season in Australia

It seems that January is tennis season in Australia. First, they started off with a tournament in Perth, followed by one in Brisbane, and now in Sydney. A small tournament is also taking place in Melbourne as well. Next week, I believe, Australia Open starts in Melbourne.

Tennis players like coming to Australia because for them it feels like such an exotic location, compared to other Grand Slam tournaments (New York, London and Paris). Also, Australians are pretty hospitable to guests, particularly to famous ones, so they must feel really special here.

It would be really fun to go and see some of these matches. We will definitely have to plan something for next year, at least to see a game here in Sydney.
