Notes

Welcome to the 31st annual Bud Simpson Open. T-shirts are provided by Fast Eddies and Saturday lunch is provided by James Claywell Edward Jones. The main play site is the beautiful Andy Simpson Tennis Complex at Lewis & Clark Community College in Godfrey, IL. This year our prize money totals over $1500. There needs to be at least 4 participants signed up for a draw to receive any prize money. Proceeds from the tournament go to benefit the Alton Parks and Recreation Junior Tennis Program and to repair the Simpson Tennis Center at Gordon Moore (See Simpson Tennis)

Play will begin on Friday evening and continue through Sunday. Regular scoring will be used and a 10-point tiebreaker will be played in lieu of a third set. In main draw semi-final and finals matches a full third set will be played. In consolation finals matches a full third set will be played. Every draw will be first match losers consolation, so everyone will play at least 2 matches. We hope to see everyone there and can't wait to watch some great tennis.
