One month ago, Irina Falconi had her first press conference with the tennis media in her pro career. Scroll down to the next post if you want to watch it. It’s pretty good. Shockingly, Tennis Maryland had the only video camera in the room and got to ask her several questions. We were honored to be 1/7 th of that presser. On her blog, this is what she said at the time:
As for media? Yeah, only American in the semis of this tournament, which is cool. I was able to sit in the comfy chair with the Citi Open backdrop and that awesome mic in front of me. I had like seven people asking questions and taking pictures. Oh, so THAT’S what it feels like? http://www.usta.com/irina_falconi_blogs_from_washington_dc_entry_no_2/We bet that tonight’s press conference felt a little bit different. Wish we could have been there. We’re glad that we were able to meet you in the minors, kid. Respect!
