Question about Australian Open ground passes?

Question

I just recieved in the mail 2 complimentary ground passes for the Australian Open for any day during the tournament as I paid to become an Australian Open member earlier in the year.

I live in Sydney and will be only in Melbourne for the last 4 days of the tournament to see the second men's semi final and men's final.

Is it worth me keeping these ground passes? Is there anything worth while seeing on the smaller courts or anything else during these last 4 days?? I imagine that most of the tennis on these courts would be all finished.....

Should i keep the ground passes or sell them on ebay or something?

I live in Sydney too but I prefer to go to the Aust Open in Melbourne for the first few days - that's when you see all of the players, many on the outside courts. You have to bear in mind that its a knock-out tournament so if they get beaten they leave! Full stop. The ground passes are not much good to you if you already have Stadium tickets, you can go anywhere on the outside courts with that ticket. Your not going to get much for them on e-bay so I would suggest just giving them to someone else...maybe someone at the ticket office the days you go. And for reference, those outside courts will still be having matches, possibly the juniors and maybe the disable. All very good to watch.

Answer 2

hi there
usually the outside courts host the juniors, legends doubles and are used by some of the semifinalists still in the main draw events etc as warm up courts
so i suggest you keep the ground passes
