SCHEDULE RELEASED
The schedule has been released for the first weekend and is on the draw sheets. Please remember to check both singles and doubles draws. We will be playing 669 matches in the first weekend. If things go to plan and we have good weather, we will only be playing 30 matches the following Saturday, May 31st. These will include the singles consolation quarterfinals, semi-finals, and final in B12, B14, and B16 as well as the singles consolation semi-finals and final of G12, G14, and G16. We should finish all doubles and main draw singles in the first weekend as well as the entire main and consolation draws for B10, G10, B18, and G18. Let's have a great weekend! Times for the remaining matches for the second weekend will be posted Wednesday, May 28th by Noon.
We understand that the schedule makes it appear that doubles matches may conflict with a singles start time. This is known by the tournament staff at the sites and players will be offered appropriate time between matches. This is just how we have to publish it to maximize court usage in scheduling.
