Gallery: Taste Of Tennis 2012
The U.S. Open is kicking off right now! Two weeks of tennis, capped by the men's final on Sunday, September 9. But late last week, before the players took to the court, athletes and chefs mingled at the 13th annual BNP Paribas Taste of Tennis event, which benefits New York Junior Tennis and Learning. If you don't already know, the U.S. Open is one tournament that takes its food seriously. And for further proof, check out these flicks below.
