The BB&T Atlanta Open Hits Atlanta

Monday July 16, 2012

The BB&T Atlanta Open kicked off at Atlantic Station today and concludes Sunday. If you've been hiding out from the heat or hitting up Piedmont Parks' many festivals and the Open slipped your mind, don't worry. There's still time to purchase tickets to the event.

Crowds are turning out to see Olympic hopeful John Isner who will represent the U.S. in the Olympics and Andy Roddick. Hey, remember when Roddick dated Mandy Moore? Not that anyone should care, but he married model Brooklyn Decker who wasn't the worst thing about "Just Go With It."

But this is about tennis.

Check out the Open and brush up on your tennis knowledge. Then take a stroll around Atlantic Station for some shopping and dining. You can also stay near the Open on a budget at one of Atlanta's nearby hotels.
