“Click, click, BOOM!”
Debuting today, A Lot of Sports Talk will roll out a regular column titled “Snap Judgements,” telling the stories of events we cover through pictures through the lens of New York City-based photographer Robert Cole. Our first stop is in the Flushing section of Queens as we’ve been covering the 2016 US Open from almost every single court on the Billie Jean King National Tennis Center. The photos below are from Day 7 (Sunday, Sept. 4) of the US Open, and we hope you enjoy. As a matter-of-fact, if you do enjoy a particular picture(s), make sure to press the “heart” button at the top right of the photos.
There are 28 photos in this gallery, and, after clicking on one to enlarge, make sure to press the left and right arrow buttons to scroll through the rest of the pictures.
