*** Concurrent Tournament Rule ***
A player shall not be entered at the time entries close in two or more
USTA sanctioned tournaments scheduled to take place at the same time, in
whole or in part, unless each Tournament Committee involved understands
the situation, concurs in writing, and each agrees to accommodate the
player’s schedule. The final decision rests with each tournament
committee. If one tournament agrees to accept concurrent entries and
accommodate the player's schedule but the concurrent tournament does
not, the player may not enter both. If entries for the overlapping
tournaments close on different dates, approval must be received from all
Tournament Committees no later than the entry closing date that occurs
last. Players who enter a tournament and play it to completion, may then
enter another tournament with overlapping dates without permission. If a
player violates this concurrent tournament rule ranking points earned
in any concurrent tournament played will not count toward ranking or the
Grand Prix Points Race and the concurrent tournaments will not count
toward the minimum tournament requirement to qualify for Grand Prix.
