Weather Report: Brrrr Friday at 1:25
We are moving our start time to 9:00am tomorrow due to the cold weather forecast and because we have extra courts. So the prior 8am matches will now be at 9am.
All match times displayed are now final and all changes have been made to reflect the later start time.

Match location and how to find your time:
Once the draws are posted on Tuesday, players will need to click on the draws tab about halfway down the page. Once you have located your draw, find your name on the draw line and pay particular attention to the time and the abbreviation next to the time as this indicates WHERE THE MATCH WILL BE PLAYED. Then go back to the front page of the tournament and look at the legend of sites with the abbreviation of your match. Click on more info, and a map link with address will populate for that site. It is recommended that players re-check there time on Friday evening to see if any withdrawals have occurred which might advance a player in the draw with a new time. We do our best to send players an email notice of any withdrawals. Remember that the online times are the official times, so always have the site director update it online if they tell you a different time.
