Hi All,

I often get to the Australian Open and dabble in taking some photos when there. I managed to take this photo of Nicole Gibbs in 2016 at the Open. One year later, I have it as an 8x10 and managed to see Nicole win her Round 1 game (vs seed 25 Timea Babos) on an outside court this year.

The culmination of 1 year of work! The photo, the chase, the win (if a player loses, they usually just walk off) and the signature!

When Nicole signed the photo she said "Wow, this is really cool, did you take this yourself?"(I think could see the Aus Open logo in the background from the previous year). She was more than happy to sign and talk to the fans after.

Please see below, it is now housed in a nice 8x10 toploader.

If wondering, she is ranked within the top 100 in the world and is from the USA.

Cheers
