And after the McEnroe/Courier match, which McEnroe won, yb, in true Jimmy Mac fashion, high tailed the girls down to the gate from whence McEnroe was going to exit to the locker room. So we had the prime spot when he came by. He was in high spirits, signing balls and whatnot, then he saw little, tiny, itty-bitty Dina. So he takes Dina’s little notebook, but doesn’t sign it right away. And the rest went something like this (or rather, precisely like this):

McEnroe: What’s my name?

Dina: John McEnroe!

McEnroe: I thought you were going to say Rafa Nadel!

Dina giggles, McEnroe smiles, and af feels like an idiot for not using the “video recording” feature on her camera rather than the regular “camera” mode.
