Well, if you follow all the stories about my trip to Singapore lately, this is the continuation of my experience watching the WTA Finals 2015 match between Maria Sharapova against Agnieszka Radwanska at the Singapore Indoor Stadium on Sunday 25th Oct 2015. What impressed me was all the access that we get as a special guest at the WTA Finals event. So, before seeing the main games in the evening, we had the opportunity to get into the practice courts at the OCBC tennis arena that is custom built each year for the BNP Paribas WTA Finals Singapore presented by SC Global.
Located in the same area at the Singapore Sports Hub, there is a quite nice mall called Kallang Wave. We spotted a very nice Racquet Swing set in front of the highest indoor rock climbing walls in Singapore. It was pretty crowded back then, but we finally managed to try the swing and took a picture of it with ourself, one by one. Ha-ha..
I did not remember exactly what time, but we had a chance to explore the Fan Zone, located in the outdoor area in front of the Kallang Wave. I’ve tried the challenge to serve as a tennis pro at StarHub Super Speed Power Serve, look for the player profiles/statistic on the WTA Finals Insights created by SAP, and also made a stunning pose in BNP Paribas Fan Zone Booth. It was all fun! Seeing how the kids and adults lined up eager to try the OCBC Virtual Reality Interactive Tennis Experience, and watched the kids whack a tennis ball with their favorite paint color to the canvas wall was also fun for me.
We also had a chance to enjoy some food for dinner with some other guests at the Racquet Club. Racquet Club, which is the official hospitality program of the WTA Finals, is the premier client engagement platform to wine, dine and network before soaking up the thrilling tennis action on Centre Court. All of us must show our Gold Ticket at the reservation desk, and then we were ushered into the VIP room located on the second floor. The food was good, and there’s nothing to complain about.
And finally, around 7 pm they took us to the Centre Court, at Singapore Indoor Stadium. This was the highlight of my Singapore trip to WTA Finals 2015 because it was a wonderful experience that I will never forget in my life. I can’t imagine the number of the crowd that night at the Singapore Indoor Stadium, which is so huge and fully air-conditioned, but I was so grateful to be able to watch the live match between my favorite tennis player, Maria Sharapova, against Agnieszka Radwanska. Wohoo!
The world’s top 8 singles players and doubles team battle for the season-ending title and to get the prestigious Billie Jean King Trophy in Round Robin matches. It was the opening night for all the players, and opened with a nice opening entertainment.

Maria Sharapova finally won her first match against Agnieszka Radwanska at the WTA Finals on Sunday, October 25, 2015. Yay! We were so happy with the result and left the stadium very late at night, back to our lovely room in Marina Bay Sands Hotel. It was truly a memorable night for me, thank God for all the experience, and thank you Migme for having me.
