SUNDAY MATCH TIMES
The BG10 & G12 First match times for Sunday are now posted. Working on the others and I should have them all posted by 8:00 p.m. tonight. We are starting out with singles. Due to the rain, the extra draw has been cancelled. No doubles in the morning. When I finish the schedule tonight, I will see if I can put doubles in the afternoon.
|
3:30 p.m. Update
All matches are on at all sites. The actual draw times are posted. We will play short scoring. First to 4 by 2. No ad scoring. 7 point tiebreak at 4-all.
|
Saturday, 1:00 p.m. update
Still working on drying courts so no matches before 4 p.m. at all sites and I will update you at 2:30 p.m. Still need help drying. We are going to try to the best of our ability to get in at least 1 round of singles today. However, after my 2:30 p.m. posting if we are unable to start, I may have one more posting then may have to cancel for the day.
|
Saturday, 12:00 p.m. Update
The sun did not come out at 12 p.m. as promised. To add to that, there is no wind, etc. Therefore, no matches starting before 3 p.m. I will remove times and repost with new times at 1 p.m. I may have to cancel some second round matches. I am inviting anyone now to come out and help roll courts to potentially play today. Remember no doubles today -- just singles. I will update you again at 1 p.m. about our possible 3 p.m. start.
|
Saturday, 11:00 a.m. Update
I thought the mist would be gone by now, but it's still lingering a bit. Hence, not feeling too confident about that 2 p.m. start now. What I do know is that we are not playing any doubles matches today -- just singles. I am going to update you again at 12 noon today, to let you know if we will be starting at 2 p.m. If the mist is completely gone by 12 noon, I will invite everyone out to the sites to help roll dry courts so we can get these matches on. Therefore, look for a roll drying call at the 12 noon update. I have posted the actual match times pending a 2 p.m. start. So at my 12 p.m. update, the posted times will stand or I will tell you that we are starting later than 2 p.m.
|
Saturday, 10:00 a.m. Update
It's still misting out and I don't foresee the courts being dry and playable by 12 noon. Let's plan for a start of 2 p.m. and I will update you again by 12 noon. Due to the delay, we will now start with singles. By 12 noon today, I will decide if we will be playing any double this evening. When the mist completely stops, I am going to invite everyone out to the sites to help roll dry courts so we can get these matches on. Therefore, look for a roll drying call before my 12 noon update. When I update at 12 noon, I will post the actual match times.
|
Saturday 6:30 a.m. Weather Update
All the courts at the tournament sites are wet. I assume it's going to totally stop raining right before noon. No matches will start before 12 noon. I am going to reschedule all the match times to reflect actual times. I am going to remove the match times now and at 10:00 A.M., update actual match times. We will open Hudlow at 8:30 this morning for Check in. Until 12 noon, the tournament staff will only be at Hudlow Tennis Center.
|
Saturday, 5:30 A.M. Weather update
Good Morning. Just letting you know that I am up and about. It's raining here in Norcross. Getting ready to drive up to Sandy Springs to just check the status there. Based on the radar I assume it's raining in Sandy Springs too!! I will post another update at 7:00 a.m. to let you know about delays for the morning.
|
MATCH TIMES
Match times are now posted. Please check the site abbreviation behind your match time to report to the proper site. Please note that the BG10 & G12 are playing at Epic Faith Tennis Ctr.

Still working on draws, doubles partners, etc. so I will post in the morning, Friday, at 9:00 a.m. Sorry for delay.
|
MATCH TIMES
Like I anticipated, with all the fine tuning of the draw, etc., I want to take some more time on the draw to make sure I don't make ANY mistakes. Hence, I will post the draw at 10 p.m. tonight, Thursday, or 9:00 a.m. on Friday morning. Please note that, weather permitting, we will start with doubles first at all sites at 9:00 a.m. on Saturday. Therefore, no singles match will start before 9 a.m. on Saturday.
|
TOURNAMENT UPDATES
Good morning all!! I will email everyone a tournament fact sheet by Thursday, 9:00 a.m. In the meantime: Although there is no mandatory Friday night check in, I will be at Hudlow Tennis Center between 5:00 p.m. and 8:45 p.m. on Friday night. If you are worried about Friday night traffic, just come later. I'll be there until 8:45 p.m. There will be plenty of courts for hitting. And since it has rained a lot this week and may rain on Saturday, coming to Hudlow on Friday night to check in and hit should be a great idea. From the tournament's position, it helps so much not having to check anyone in on Saturday morning before 8:00 a.m. matches. However, if you cannot check in on Friday night, you can check in at Hudlow 45 minutes before your Saturday morning match. Hudlow Tennis Center will open at 7:00 a.m. on Saturday morning. The forecast calls for rain on Saturday. I will post a weather update on this site at 6:30 a.m. on Saturday morning. On Saturday, doubles starts first at 8:00 a.m. for most. I will post seeds today, Wednesday, at 6 p.m. and the draw will be posted on Thursday at 6 p.m.
