Johanna Konta is all about the preparation - whether it be a Grand Slam match or a trip to the funfair.
The British number one will resume her quest for a first major title at the US Open next week, with Serbia's Aleksandra Krunic, the world number 77, her first-round opponent.
Konta arrived in the US after finding time for some extra-curricular activities following her Wimbledon breakthrough.
A backstage pass for her favourite band U2 - "Bono kissed my hand, I haven't washed it!" - could have been matched for excitement by a rare theme-park visit, if only she had got her strategy right.
