Whose job is more important?

These pictures were taken during the Malaysian Open Tennis Finals. A major event such as this takes a lot of manpower to make it a success. Everyone has a job to do. Whose job is more important?

First off, the protagonists of the event….



But who ensures the players play smoothly? Bingo– it’s the ball boys and ball girls.



But how can we forget the umpire – the most important person in the match? When you get a penalty or a fine, no "face" is given even though you can be No. 1 player in the world. Watch out, Federer!



But this game won’t even take place if it’s not because of sponsors and one important thing they demand – the match must be telecast… LIVE, if possible. But no one ever thank this video cameraman. I wonder why…



And let’s not forget the blogosphere and Facebook – layman with a camera is very powerful nowadays…ahem…



Some hated the paparazzi but everyone will start to panic if they did not turn up…:(



A winner must emerge at the end. No one can accept a no winner match, no?



So, whose job is more important to determine the event’s success?





You guess it right! It has to be me among the many that oooh and aaahh and with intermittent shouts of “Davydenko” and “Verdasco” throughout the match. And not forgetting we have to PAY to get this job done …Not an easy job - money, sweat and all...LOL..
