Tennis Update: March 21, 2013

So I heard the ATP and the WTA are going to boost up prize money in the US Open this year. Last year the total prize money was $25 million and this year it will be $34 million. That's a lot of money dang. The schedule is changed too. The men's finals is on Monday. I'm thinking that will mean less viewers since people would be at work or at school, but maybe it can be an exception this time. Also it's scheduled for August 28-September 9, so if you like marking stuff down on our calendar, here ya go.
Also do you guys remember Justine Henin? She had a baby! That's kind of unexpected, I didn't even know she was pregnant! Her baby's name is Laila was just born a few hours ago. In case you don't know Justine Henin, she was a winner of 7 grandslams and an Olympic title, among other things. She retired I think because she had a bad back and also she just wanted to start a family. Her husband, Something Benoit and her are super excited for the baby of course. That's awesome. Yay. I have nothing else to say today except that it's a couples days into spring yet it's still raining.
