While a Hurricane watch is not typical end of summer activity for New Yorkers, Irene made it front-page news across the entire tri-state area. With Irene having passed, New Yorkers, and tennis fans, can turn their attention to more leisurely, and typical, end-of-summer fare, namely The U.S. Open.

Best Value: If you're looking one day that combines the some of the frenetic pace of early rounds with some big-stage stakes, Labor day may be the best bet. The Labor day day session will cost you an average of $338. If you're bargain hunting, Monday night screams value. At an average price of $150 and a get-in price of $40, it's the 4th least expensive session of the tournament.
