I went to Times Square yesterday and managed to see the final match of CIMB KL Open where Nicol David was going against Vanessa Atkinson and it was kinda crowded. The admission is free of course if you may ask and it ended quickly as the match started at 5pm and I reached there around 6:30pm. There's a small exhibition showing pictures of various squash players and such. I looked through some of the pictures of the exhibition while the match was going on cause it was pretty crowded that I can't have a nice view of the match not mentioning taking photos of it.

The stage was held on somewhere center of Times Square, just in front of the main entrance. My digicam can't zoom much at all and I can't take close shot as the stage has a limit where unauthorized people can't go into, not mentioning many have surrounded the area leaving me to watch the match(barely) which ends soon.
In the end, Vanessa beats Nicol to become the winner of the tournament :( . I went down to the lower ground where the stage is held and managed to take a few photo when suddenly my batteries went flat (_ _); .... Here's a very few of shots taken:


I immediately bought a pack of batteries and came back to find she's surrounded by a small group of people and being interviewed by a reporter. Many took this chance to take a close photo shot of her, takes her autograph and such. Some ask her permission to have a photo of them together taken and she agreed without hesitation even though it was pretty late and she looks tired from the match.



Afterwards she stands up to get ready to move and some people shake hands with her and bid her farewell before she walks out of the place. Afterwards I went to buy some stuff. Overall it was pleasant to see her in real person and hope she will thrive for the best in the upcoming games.
