By QNS Editorial Posted on August 28, 2014

Tennis fans from all over the world know what’s happening in Queens from Monday, Aug. 25 through Sept. 8. For the third year in a row, the United States Tennis Association (USTA) has donated a kiosk to serve as an information and referral center during the entire 2014 U.S. Open Tennis Championships at the Billie Jean King National Tennis Center in Flushing Meadows-Corona Park. Last Wednesday, Aug. 20 elected officials, USTA executives and local leaders gathered in front of the kiosk during Queens Day, a pre-tournament festival with concerts and tennis-related activities. Pictured are, front row, from left Assemblywoman Margaret M. Markey, City Council Member Julissa Ferreras and her son Julian, Assemblyman Ron Kim, Queens Economic Development Corporation Executive Director Seth Bornstein, State Sen. Toby Ann Stavisky, Queens Borough President Melinda Katz, USTA Chief Administrative Officer & General Counsel Andrea Hirsch and Queens Tourism Council Director Rob MacKay; (back row, from left) USTA National Tennis Center COO Daniel Zausner, Queens Chamber Executive Director Jack Friedman and USTA Executive Director & Chief Operating Officer Gordon Smith.
