The Grand Ducal tennis fan numero uno, Grand Duke Henri, was on hand once again to cheer on the tennis players at the BGL BNP Paribas Luxembourg Open. Today, he watched the first round match between Mandy Minella of Luxembourg and former world number one Serbian Jelena Jankovic. Unfortunately for the Grand Duke and the whole Grand Duchy, Minella lost 1:6 and 4:6. Nevertheless the Luxembourgish player said after the match, "It was a great honour for me that the Grand Duke was present today."
