Doubles in Our Tournaments
All doubles matches in our tournaments will play best two out of three sets. We DO NOT play pro-8 sets in doubles. Also, most of the time doubles begin late Saturday afternoon after the players involved have finished singles, and the matches may run into Saturday evening. When necessary for the benefit of the tournament as a whole, there are also some times when doubles matches are played earlier on Saturday or on Sunday. Please keep this in mind when you sign up for doubles in our tournaments.
