Notes
This tournament is part of the US Open National Playoffs - a
series of tournaments that gives any player 14 years of age or
older who meets the eligibility requirements the opportunity to
qualify for the 2016 US Open. Sectional Qualifying Tournaments will
be held across 15 USTA Sections to include men's singles, women's
singles, men's doubles, women's doubles, and mixed doubles.
Tournaments will take place between April 1 and July 4.
With a maximum of a 256 singles draw and a 128 doubles team draw,
players/teams will compete in a single elimination draw. Singles
players will play to the best-of-three tiebreak sets and doubles
teams will play two tiebreak sets, no-ad scoring, with a match
tiebreak in lieu of a third set. Within each singles division,
players will be seeded based on their Universal Tennis Rating (UTR)
at the Tournament Referee's discretion. Within each doubles
division, the top two teams will be seeded based on their ATP/WTA
computer ranking (if any).
The winner or top available finisher of each Sectional Qualifying
Tournament in each division (men's singles, women's singles, men's
doubles, women's doubles, mixed doubles) will advance to the US
Open National Playoffs Championships in their respective division
taking place in New Haven, CT at Yale University during the
Connecticut Open, an Emirates Airline US Open Series event (August
19-22 for singles, August 21-24 for men's & women's doubles,
August 24-27 for mixed doubles). The men's and women's singles
