Paige and Azzi (merged)

Did I just see them sitting in Coco Gauff's box at the US Open?

Living the dream. I genuinely can't imagine what it would be like.

I thought that was Paige.

Thank God admission to all sporting events at UConn were free w/ID back in the day; that was the only thing I could afford in college. These kids have it made in the shade!

I guess Paige’s summer tour isn’t over yet

Flushing Meadows is a good place to make corporate contacts.

In her post-match interview Coco mentioned how pleased she was to have Paige and Azzi in her box rooting for her. She hopes to return the favor.

Shouldn't they be in class? Or are student-athletes not able to fit that kind of stuff into their busy schedules anymore?

Has UConn's Fall Semester officially begun? I know K-12 schools have moved up their schedules, but a lot of colleges still don't have class until the day after Labor Day.

 

[Dugway]

First day of class was Monday, Aug 26, 2024.

Paige and Azzi are grad students, aren't they? Does their semester start the same time as the undergrads?

At my college, classes begin on Monday. Of course, I'm on sabbatical so my schedule is wide open for the coming year.

 

[JellyBean]

Pretty awesome. Ladies out there living their best lives. Doing great in class, on the court, and in life. Have fun out there Paige and Azzi.

They graduated in May

Many schools have limited or no classes on Fri.

Paige is definitely a " graduate" student... and I believe Azzi is already into her graduate MBA program.
My guess is that the regular graduate student courses may start a little later. But then again, Flushing
Meadows is not in PARIS, France.... A modest ? drive from Storrs.

When I was a grad student at UConn in the 1980s, all classes started at the same time.

 

[Hayven]

I don’t think many grad students have classes on Friday. Most of my grad classes were Monday through Thursday

 

[MilfordHusky]

It starts at 4:30.

 

[RoadWarrior]

It starts at 4:30.

Sounds like Coco will return the favor and attend one of the UCONN WBB games this year.

 

[calpedaler]

Coco needed them in her player's box today.

Just saw Paige on ESPN3 coverage of Tiafoe vs. Popyrin match.

Camera wasn’t focused on her, wonder if the cameraman or woman knows who she is.

I’m so happy I saw her and recognized her in that quick shot.

Anyone else see her?
