I spent several days in — very hot — San Jose covering the Mubadala Silicon Valley Classic during the first week of August. I learned a lot from observing my colleagues for a day in the pressroom, but also from elevating my tennis coverage from collegiate to professional tennis, albeit just for a week. One of my most important takeaways from the experience: No amount of water is enough to prevent you from the dehydration of sitting in a tennis stadium in 90-degree heat. Bring Gatorade. Upon arriving at the San Jose State University Tennis Complex bright and early Monday morning and receiving my media credentials, I walked into the venue.
