Michael's News: February 2000

THIS MONTH: Michael reached the quarterfinals in Memphis, Tennessee. The week before, he also reached the quarterfinals of Sybase Open in San Jose CA, and Michael kicked off the tournament by attending the introductory player party. Finally, Michael had a short stay in Delray Beach FL this week, bowing out in the first round.

WINNING A CHANCE TO MEET MICHAEL AT THE SYBASE OPEN: Sybase, Inc. sponsored a online charity auction for its 2000 tournament. The winner was eligible to receive a backstage tour given by Michael and/or receive a one-on-one tennis lesson with Michael on Wed., Feb. 9. The auction began Jan. 28 and ended Feb. 4, and with a minimum bid of more than $2,000, it was a pretty serious deal. A winner was chosen, according to the Sybase Open newsletter: "Youth Tennis Advantage held a cyberauction for a night with a pro. The winner, Phil Enan, spent time watching tennis with four-time Sybase Open finalist Michael Chang. Sybase Open tournament director Barry MacKay, a Youth Tennis Advantage board member for 30 years, believes "these kind of events are a great way to bring technology, tennis and communities together.""
