The tennis is on from Monday Jan 14 to Sunday Jan 27 2008.
The Women’s final is Saturday Jan 26. The Men’s final is Sunday Jan 27.

Saturday Jan 26 is Australia day. Monday Jan 28 is a public holiday as Aussie day falls on the weekend. As its Australia Day there is usually something on that’s interesting during the weekend. Saturday 26 Jan will have a very good classic car display on in Kings Domain (St Kilda Rd), with free entry.

Sunday Jan 13 & Friday Jan 25 as post 59
