Withdrawing players:
Please send an email to the Tournament Director if you are withdrawing from the tournament so that we have a record and a reason for the withdraw. If you are withdrawing on Saturday of Sunday, please call the site at the number that will be listed and then email the TD.
|
Withdrawals and Match times:
It is highly encouraged that all players re-check their match times on Friday in order to make sure that no withdrawals have occurred which would advance a player and make for a different first match time. The TD does our best to notify players when withdrawals occur, but sometimes we are not given much notice and may not be able to reach a player to update. We will send an email to the advancing player when a withdraw occurs starting on Friday. REMEMBER that the times online are the official times.

First-off Consolation – All Challengers and CMZs use the First Off Consolation Format. This format will show as Single Elimination on the tournament homepage, but all players are guaranteed two matches. This format eliminates “maybe matches” and almost every player in consolation will play their first consolation match on Saturday. How does it work? Players that lose in the main draw will be fed into the consolation draw in the order that they come off the court (i.e. the first player to come off the court will go on line one, the sixth player to come off the court will go on line six). This new format ensures more players playing on Saturday and an overall better tournament.

Excessive Overrule Guideline: The USTA Texas Officials Committee along with the Competitive Department has established a guideline in reference to excessive overrules as clarified in the Friend at Court. This guideline states "Once a player has been overruled for a second time in a match, they will be cautioned that after another overrule, they will be penalized for unsportsmanlike conduct under the point penalty system."
